CENTER TWP — Supervisors approved a land development request Wednesday, Feb. 8, for a subdivision on North Duffy Road, which will be a new neighborhood with some properties in Center Township and some in Butler Township.

The new subdivision, Duffy Highlands, consists of 111 home sites and was originally presented in 2018 as a four-phase project. The supervisors Wednesday approved phase three of the Brennan Homes plan, which includes 40 of those home sites, six of which are in Center Township.

The plan also includes a club house, a pool, a walking trail and community sidewalks, according to the Bob Brennan, owner of Brennan Homes. Phases one and two of the project are entirely within Center Township’s borders, Brennan said.

On Tuesday, Feb. 7, the Butler Township Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of phase three of the plan to the Butler Township commissioners with a few contingencies, including approval by the Center Township supervisors.

“The lion’s share of the property is in Butler Township,” Brennan said. “This plan is what you approved back in 2018. Very minimal changes occurred since this approval to where we are today.”
