About this project

A developer plans to tear down the existing office building at 140 Whitaker Avenue in Upper Providence Township and replace it with 60 townhomes on about 6.78 acres. The site will connect to public sewer and water, and the county planning commission generally supports the plan while asking for changes to the road layout, parking, buffers, and stormwater design.

County planning commission: Supports, with comments

Issues raised: cul-de-sac at end of 435-foot road too close to property line and below required length, skewed entrance off Whitaker Avenue near Norwood Street is a safety concern; recommends T-intersection, no visitor parking allocated, no stormwater mitigation included in sketch plan, landscape buffers needed along Egypt Road and Norwood Street neighbors, parking in front of townhomes leaves little room for street trees
