Moon Township Board of Supervisors and its boards · 19 subject tags
The Moon Township Planning Commission met on April 16, 2014, with the chairman presiding and three members present. The commission approved the March 19, 2014 minutes by a 3-0 vote. No sketch plans were presented. The commission tabled a rezoning request from Crighton Plastics by a 3-0 vote. The solicitor reported that the Board of Supervisors had recommended drafting a text amendment to allow flex space as a conditional use in the MX Mixed Use Zoning District, as an alternative to rezoning the Crighton Plastics property. The solicitor said the amendment language was being finalized and a meeting with both Crighton Plastics and Tri-State Plastics would be scheduled before the April 30 supervisors workshop. The applicant indicated he wanted to see the amendment language but was still considering pursuing the rezoning. The commission also tabled the Corsi Management minor land development plan by a 3-0 vote. An engineer submitted revised plans on April 15, but the township engineer had not yet reviewed them. The solicitor explained that a requested deviation from bufferyard material requirements would require a conditional use application and public hearing before the supervisors, and a separate deviation request would be needed for a proposed rain garden that exceeded stormwater ordinance depth limits. The township engineer said a written deviation request was needed by noon April 17 to be placed on the April 30 workshop agenda. The commission recommended approval of the Foxwood Knolls PRD revised tentative plan by a 3-0 vote, subject to conditions in the solicitor’s April 11 memorandum. An engineer said grading revisions reduced the total lots by two and decreased road right-of-way and constructed roadway, resulting in slightly larger lots around cul-de-sacs. Under administrative matters, the planner announced EPD had been selected for comprehensive plan revisions, with a kickoff meeting scheduled for early May. The solicitor said the codification project was awaiting a revised draft from the publisher, expected by end of April. The township engineer reported that Peoples Natural Gas Company was seeking to construct a 75-by-175-foot fenced demarcation site on a transmission pipeline at Olsen Park, offering trail improvements in exchange for a long-term lease or purchase. A commissioner recommended a lease rather than sale.
