Jackson Township development in limbo
The public hearings on a planned residential development in Jackson Township that have been ongoing since early February continued Thursday, according to township manager Chris Rearick.
Londonderry Ridge, a development planned along Lindsay Road, would feature 77 townhouses, 117 single-family lots and related infrastructure.
At the township’s Feb. 16 meeting, Rearick said the public the township and the developer discussed concerns and issues with the development’s access to Route 528, the location of access, and the necessity of obtaining public right away from residents in that area.
“Essentially, the developer has gone back to the drawing board to address those concerns,” Rearick said.
Supervisors voted to continue the hearing at the board of supervisor’s meeting Thursday, May 18.
Rearick said that if the developer makes major changes to the application, it will need to be resubmitted as a new application. If the changes are minor, however, the township can conclude the hearing and act on it.
