Every two years, Kennett Square Borough officials coordinate strategic planning sessions to listen to residents, business owners, and community leaders in a collaborative format. The discussions at these sessions guide the borough’s “roadmap” document, a plan of action for the next two years.

Kennett Square Borough will hold strategic planning sessions on Monday, Jan. 12, 2026 and Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2026 at 6 p.m. at Borough Hall at 600 S. Broad Street. 

These sessions are very important, and borough residents, business owners, and community stakeholders are encouraged to attend one of these sessions. The feedback that borough officials from these discussions will help improve and influence the community over the next two years.

Kennett Square Borough is also seeking individuals who might be interested in serving on a board or commission. The borough has more than one dozen boards and commissions, which span diverse issues, roles, and missions. 

Several boards have, or will have, upcoming vacancies including the Historic Architecture Review Board (HARB), the Planning Commission, and Zoning Hearing Board (ZHB), among others. 

Kennett Square Borough Hall will be closed on Wednesday, Dec. 31 and Thursday, Jan. 1 and will reopen on Friday, Jan. 2 at 8:30 a.m.

The first Kennett Square Borough Council meeting of 2026 will take place at 7 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 5 at at Borough Hall.
