• Middletown Township Upper 1 and Upper 5 from Oliver Heckman Elementary School, 201 Cherry St., Langhorne; to Langhorne Methodist Church, 301 E. Maple Ave., Langhorne

According to the county, the New Britain, Warminster and Warrington moves were due to higher insurance fees at Catholic churches, while the Bensalem site had been sold and the Middletown site had been closed as a school and is deteriorating.

All passed unanimously except for the Bensalem decision, which was opposed by Commissioner Gene DiGirolamo.
