Calvary Chapel Chester Springs, a church campus in Uwchlan Township, has filed plans for two building additions, a covered patio and new parking. The site is about 8 acres, and the new building space totals roughly 12,940 square feet. That is a little larger than three average suburban houses.
County records describe the proposal as a combined subdivision and land development plan. This means the township reviews the lot layout and the construction in a single process. The church is the intended user, since the project is classed as institutional. The county records do not say what is on the site today. The likeliest answer is an existing church campus, because the plans are for additions.
No news coverage, township agendas, or developer pages specific to this project were found. Nothing was found on opposition or approvals.
What it could mean nearby
- New parking suggests more vehicle activity on the site. Nothing found shows how it would affect traffic on nearby roads.
- The plans add no homes. Any new jobs would likely be limited to church or ministry staff, but no source confirms this.
- Stormwater and drainage are normally reviewed for added buildings and paving. No source describes this project's plan.
Where it stands
The latest county filing is dated 2025-02-07, so the plan was in township and county review at that point. No later approval or denial was found. Typically the planning commission and the township supervisors review the plan next. Approval is often conditional, and construction permits follow.

How to comment officially
For this project: The Uwchlan Township supervisors normally decide on land development plans after the planning commission reviews them. Residents can usually comment at those public meetings. Check the township's posted agendas for dates.
In Pennsylvania, Uwchlan Township decides on this plan, not the county. The county planning commission only reviews it and sends recommendations.
- Speak at the Uwchlan Township planning commission or governing body (board of supervisors or council) meeting when the plan is on the agenda. Public comment there goes on the official record.
- Or email or mail a written comment to the Uwchlan Township manager or zoning officer, name the plan and its address, and ask that your comment be entered into the record.
