Donnelly Enterprises proposes to add two new buildings and one building addition on a 12.6-acre site in Upper Oxford Township. Together they would total about 43,200 square feet of industrial, warehouse and office space. County records describe this as a land development plan.
Township planning commission minutes link the plan to the company's Newark Road property, which operates as Premium Power Services. The site already has buildings. In 2024 the company discussed combining three parcels, expanding its buildings, and using a landlocked back parcel for parking. An April 2026 presentation described a revised plan with a roughly 39,000 sq ft building next to an existing one, so the final building sizes may differ from the county figure.
In May 2026 the planning commission recommended conditional approval. The conditions are items in the township engineer's review letter. No news coverage or organized opposition was found.
What it could mean nearby
- Parking would use a back parcel that has no road access of its own, so the site layout and internal access are part of the review.
- The site is an existing industrial use, so the plan expands current operations and does not bring in a new type of use.
- The sources found do not discuss traffic counts, jobs, schools or utilities.
Where it stands
As of May 2026, the planning commission had recommended that the township supervisors give conditional preliminary/final approval. The supervisors then vote. After approval, the developer usually has to satisfy the review-letter conditions and obtain building and stormwater permits. The outcome of the supervisors' vote was not found.
- May 4, 2026 Planning commission recommended conditional approval of the preliminary/final land development plan.
