Hiram Hershey Subdivision Lot 13
130 Christopher Lane, Lower Salford, PA · 27,500 sq ft non-residential, industrial · 5.3 acres
About this project
Argus Properties plans a one-story light industrial building of about 27,500 square feet with 54 parking spaces on Christopher Lane in Lower Salford. The 5.3-acre lot is currently undeveloped, with a heavily wooded southern section, and the project would use about 3 acres with two driveways and a stormwater basin behind the building. The county planning commission generally supports the plan but asked for painted crosswalks at the driveways and a stormwater basin designed to protect a nearby headwaters stream.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Painted crosswalks needed at driveway crossings on Christopher Lane, Stormwater basin design must protect the on-site headwaters tributary, Basin discharge into wooded portion of the property
