Local government in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is divided into a number of classifications. There are two categories of townships - those identified as Townships of the First Class and those known as Townships of the Second Class. Second Class Townships make up the great bulk of municipalities in Pennsylvania. Whitpain Township is a Township of the Second Class. It is governed by a five-member Board of Supervisors elected at-large by the electorate. Most, if not all, of the executive and legislative powers allocated to Whitpain Township in the State Second Class Township Code are vested in the Board of Supervisors.

The Board of Supervisors is empowered to appoint professionals to assist it in the operation of the Township and to furnish advice and counsel on technical matters. Additionally, the Board appoints all the members of the various boards and commissions as well as the Zoning Hearing Board and the Planning Commission. Also, the Board of Supervisors hears conditional use applications in accordance with the Municipalities Planning Code and the Whitpain Township Zoning Ordinance.

The levying of township taxes and the appropriations to the various departments and subsidiary boards and commissions is the responsibility of the Board of Supervisors. During the months of November and December public hearings are held for the purpose of reviewing the budget for the following year. Residents are encouraged to attend these meetings to review and comment on the proposed budget during that time.
