Hasson Road Subdivision
104 Hasson Rd., Upper Providence, PA · 14 homes, single family · 27.8 acres
About this project
Plans call for tearing down the existing house and outbuildings at 104 Hasson Road in Upper Providence and building 14 single-family homes on the roughly 28-acre property, which is split by Wilson Way. About a quarter to a third of the land is steep slopes, and the homes would be served by public sewer and water. The county planning commission generally supports the plan but notes that the township has interest in preserving this land as open space.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: open space layout and usefulness for residents, building setbacks next to steep slopes, sidewalk or trail needed along Road A and communal driveway, communal driveway width and steep slope stabilization, maintenance agreements for driveway, stormwater and steep slopes, protection of wooded areas; conflict with township open space plans

The plan would clear the existing house and outbuildings at 104 Hasson Road in Upper Providence Township and replace them with 14 single-family homes. The property is about 28 acres and is split by Wilson Way. Roughly a quarter to a third of the land is steep slopes. The homes would connect to public sewer and water.
An online summary of a township planning commission meeting says the plan was revised. Lots were rearranged, open space was enlarged, and paved or roofed area was reduced. The commission reportedly recommended tentative approval. The same summary says neighbors raised concerns about stormwater, slopes and trail safety, and that a zoning exception for building on steep slopes is still needed. The county planning commission generally supports the plan but notes the township's interest in keeping the land as open space. No builder or buyer has been identified.
What it could mean nearby
- Stormwater runoff and building on steep slopes were reported neighbor concerns.
- Open space was reportedly enlarged in the revised plan, but the township has said it wants to preserve this land as open space.
- Public sewer and water would serve the homes, so no new wells or septic systems are planned.
- Fourteen new households would add some traffic on Hasson Road and nearby streets. No traffic study was found.
Where it stands
A local planning commission reportedly recommended tentative approval of a revised plan, but the exact date and the final outcome could not be confirmed. Next come the township supervisors' vote on the plan, any zoning relief for steep slopes, and later final plan approval.
