 Taylorstown is an unincorporated community within the township.Citizens of Blaine Township have passed restrictive ordinances in 2006, 2007, and 2008 which
ban coal mining, require businesses to publicly disclose activities, and assert
that corporations do not have constitutional rights as 'persons' to sue
a municipality for passing laws that would hurt corporate interests.The township's "Corporate Rights Ordinance" of 2006 states, "This illegitimate bestowal of civil and political rights upon corporations prevents the administration of laws within Blaine Township and usurps basic human and constitutional rights guaranteed to the people of Blaine Township."
