Discussion covered traffic, PennDOT approval, easements, stormwater, parking and bufferyards; the applicant noted the plan remains in sketch stage with substantial work ahead. The commission tabled a minor land development plan for 443 Moon Clinton Road after the applicant signed a time extension waiver through August 7. The commission voted 4-0 to recommend approval of a zoning amendment ordinance to rezone properties owned by Crago Inc. VIII and Pittsburgh Rugby Association II LLC from R-4 Urban Residential to C-1 Neighborhood Commercial for Patrick’s Pub; a public hearing had been advertised for July 2. The commission also voted 4-0 to recommend approval of a 12-month time extension for RMU’s amended conditional use for Yorktown Hall at 8256 University Boulevard, extending all deadlines except voluntary contributions under Condition 11(d). Discussion covered traffic, signal timing, left-turn restrictions onto University Boulevard, fee reimbursement, sidewalks, bus shuttles, handicap spaces, sight distance improvements and pending Panera Bread project improvements. Under administrative items, the township solicitor requested the commission review the draft codification project within 30 days; the codes will be searchable online. The comprehensive plan update noted EPD has been hired and will begin meetings in August. Monthly correspondence included Dick’s Corporation expansion and a traffic study request for International Drive, a resident’s property tax claim, and a PIBP application for Building 300.
