About this project
CRDT Development, LLC wants to split a roughly 58-acre former farm property at 749 Congo Road in Douglass Township into 26 single-family home lots, grouped as a cluster with about 40 acres of shared open space owned by a homeowners association. The plan also turns the sharp S-curve on Congo Road into a T-intersection and adds a public-access trail and a park with a gazebo.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: T-intersection design at Road A and Congo Road unclear, sidewalk waiver for lots 21-26 and open space A/B, crosswalks not shown on plans, trail should be open to the public with an access easement, landscaping species quantities and planting rows, open space management plan to prevent invasive species
