About this project
A 16,800 square foot warehouse building with related infrastructure is proposed on a roughly 3-acre site on Hagey Road in Franconia Township, in a limited industrial zone. County planning staff generally support the plan but flagged stormwater risks: a basin spillway aimed toward a cul-de-sac, and a parking lot inlet that could let water pool in the lot and building during heavy storms.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Stormwater basin spillway directed into cul-de-sac, possible flooding of neighboring properties in extreme storms, Parking lot sump condition could flood lot and building if inlet clogs or storm exceeds capacity

A developer proposes a 16,800-square-foot warehouse on about 3 acres along Hagey Road in Franconia Township. The site is in a limited industrial zone, which allows light industrial and storage uses. The building would come with the usual supporting work: parking, driveways, utilities and a stormwater basin.
County planning staff generally support the plan. They did raise stormwater concerns. One is that the basin's overflow spillway points toward a cul-de-sac. The other is that a parking lot drain could let water collect in the lot and the building during heavy storms.
Online, the only item found was the township planning commission's August 2024 minutes. They list a "Landis Land Development" file under old business with no discussion at that meeting. No news coverage, opposition, approvals or named tenant were found.
What it could mean nearby
- Stormwater: the county flagged a spillway aimed at a cul-de-sac and a parking-lot drain that could let water pool, so the final drainage design matters to nearby properties.
- Traffic: a warehouse of this size usually adds some truck and delivery trips on Hagey Road. No traffic study was found.
- Land use: the site is in a limited industrial zone, so a warehouse is consistent with the zoning.
Where it stands
The latest county filing is from April 2024, and the township planning commission listed the file in August 2024 with no discussion. No final approval was found. Usually the developer revises the plan to address county and township comments, and then the township planning commission and supervisors review it.
