NEW BUSINESS
The purpose of the meeting was to hold a discussion with the Board of Commissioners to discuss future land use in the Township. Solicitor Karver and Township Engineer Sartor led the discussion in regards to potential areas in the Township where development could be proposed. The Board of Commissioners wanted to have this discussion with the Planning Commission to possibly have a land planner look at the Township’s ordinances and perhaps make suggestions to the Township for any potential problems development may cause to the Township.
It was agreed that the Planning Commission and Board of Commissioners will have a land planner at the next Planning Commission meeting to be held on May 18, 2017 at 7:00 pm. The Township Engineer will coordinate with the Land Planner for attendance at the meeting.
