About this project
A company is proposing to split the 0.2-acre lot at 510 East Basin Street in Norristown into three lots and redevelop it with three attached rowhouses, replacing the single-family house currently on the parcel. The county planning commission generally supports the plan but asked for changes to access, shared easements, and stormwater and parking layout before preliminary plans are submitted.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Units front a public alley that may be privately owned; access easement from adjacent church property needed, Front-yard access from East Basin Street recommended for consistency with form-based code, Cross-property sidewalk access easements needed across the three lots, Maintenance easement needed for the shared stormwater seepage bed, Seepage bed shown under parking spaces; parking layout appears infeasible and loading capacity needs confirmation, Street tree planting must show compliance with municipal ordinance
