About this project
The Perkiomen School is adding three pickleball courts, a hardscape play area, underground stormwater detention, and new trees and shrubs on a 4.53-acre part of its 75.5-acre campus at 200 Seminary Street in Pennsburg. The work also removes some existing paved surfaces and realigns walkways near the new Student Center, which is already under construction and is not changing in footprint.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Pickleball courts sited only 7-8 feet from the school building, with noise concern for classrooms, Proposed columnar European Hornbeam trees should be replaced with large native shade trees, Landscape plan and plant schedule inconsistencies and omissions, Missing material and construction section details for the hardscape/play area, Play area placed next to a high-voltage area should be relocated, Stormwater underground detention viewed as a missed educational and landscape opportunity
