The Moon Township Planning Commission met July 16 and approved the June minutes, then moved through a light agenda. The commission voted unanimously to table the Synergy Hospitality Moon LLC subdivision and preliminary major land development plan at the applicant’s request, as they still had comments to address. They then recommended approval of the final land development plan for Pittsburgh International Business Park-Building 300, presented by Continental Real Estate Companies. The applicant noted Building 210 will be fully occupied by September and construction on Building 300 could start in the fall. Discussion covered geotechnical and environmental reports, curb cuts, traffic improvements, parking ratios, sidewalks, trails, rain gardens, bufferyards, stormwater, LED lighting, and a building height change to meet airport regulations. The township engineer said remaining issues were minor, like typographical errors. The commission also tabled the Corsi Management minor land development plan because the township had only received plans the day before and had not reviewed them; the applicant requested an extension to September 5. The commission recommended approval of the proposed Floodplain Ordinance, a standard FEMA-required update that must be adopted by September 26. Anyone building or expanding in a floodplain will need a permit under the revised maps. In administrative matters, the commission heard that Patrick’s Pub’s rezoning ordinance was advertised, with a public hearing set for August 6. The applicant’s plan to consolidate lots for parking is a simple subdivision that does not need approval but will require a grading permit; engineer comments were minor, including signature ink and labeling issues. The codification project remains under review, and the comprehensive plan update is moving forward, with a consultant submittal scheduled for August 4 and a joint meeting with EPD, staff, and the commission on August 20. Staff also announced plans to provide pre-meeting tracking sheets for applications and offered a Penn State webinar to commissioners.
