Which Newtown am I in?

Does replacing windows require a permit?

Newtown Township's published FAQ ties that to whether the new window differs in size and requires structural framing changes. Confirm your case with the authority that governs your property.

Local planning notes for Newtown

Drawn from the official municipal pages linked above, so you know what the town itself publishes before plans are finalized.

Newtown Borough and Newtown Township publish their own information separately; confirming jurisdiction for your address first avoids reading requirements from the wrong authority.
Newtown Township's Codes Department administers the Joint Municipal Zoning Ordinance along with building, electrical, plumbing and mechanical UCC standards, so a single remodel can involve several reviews in one department.
The Township's published examples state that a permit is required for work such as decks, additions, finished basements and egress windows, while some like-for-like work is listed as not requiring one — which makes precise scope wording important.
The Township's own FAQ notes a window replacement permit is tied to whether the new window changes size and requires framing changes, a distinction worth settling before ordering units.

Useful to settle before an estimate

Is the property in Newtown Borough or Newtown Township? Your tax bill or the municipality can confirm it.
For windows, will openings stay the same size, or is framing changing?
Is the home detached or attached? The Township's roofing guidance treats them differently.
