Our Mission

The Bucks County Association of Township Officials (BCATO) is composed of officials from the 30 townships of the second class in the fourth largest county in Pennsylvania.

The Association holds special status since it was created by the State Legislature and is covered by state law. Therefore, BCATO is a creature of the commonwealth.

The organization was started in 1908 to provide information and education to the members so they can better discharge their official duties.

BCATO reviews legislation and court rulings affecting local government, has a quarterly newsmagazine to keep its members informed on trends and concepts in municipal governance, holds two countywide conferences each year and numerous seminars to help carry out its mandate.

The Association keeps its members current on regional and statewide concerns by being active in the Southeastern Association of Township Officials and the Pennsylvania State Association of Township Supervisors.
