Chester Borough and Township Elected Officials

Below are two tables listing the Chester Borough and Chester Township elected officials. The individuals are listed by year, starting by the most recent, and then by position. Their names are listed alphabetically by last name. In some cases, there is a comment to the right of the council members. The comment is included to clarify such discrepancies as entries of two mayors or fewer/more council members than typical.

To quickly search through the list by name or year, use your keyboard to select the Control (Command on a Mac) and F keys. Ctrl and F together launch the Find search field in your browser’s window. Enter a name or year into the search field and use the up and down arrows next to the search field to locate the name in the tables.

1959 Conover, William H., Jr. Francis, Ercel B. (Mrs.); Minard, Robert K. In 1960, Chester Township changed its form of government from a Township form to a Faulkner Act small municipality Plan C form.  What this means is that prior to 1960, the governing body was called a Township Committee.  It consisted of 3 members, one of whom was selected to be Mayor (or Chairman prior to 1953) annually at the January Reorganization meeting.  Beginning in 1960, the Township Council is the governing body that continues through today, where the Mayor is elected by the residents directly.
