The Oakwood Lane subdivision is a proposal to turn about 68 acres in Schuylkill Township into a neighborhood of single-family homes. County records describe reconfiguring 9 existing lots into 68 home lots, with new roads and open space.
The township's own project page gives a slightly different count: 60 new detached homes plus one existing home that would stay, for 61 in total. The difference may reflect a revised plan or a different counting method, and this was not confirmed. The page says the site now has one single-family home.
The township received the application in October 2025. The applicant showed the plans to the planning commission in November 2025, and the commission made no recommendation then. No news coverage, opposition or developer information was found.
What it could mean nearby
- New roads and a larger number of households would add traffic, and the township's traffic engineer is reviewing the plan.
- The plan would add roughly 60 to 68 single-family homes where there is now mainly one house.
- The records say open space is included, but they do not say how much or whether the public can use it.
Where it stands
The township describes the preliminary subdivision application as under review. The township engineer and traffic engineer have given comments, and the applicant must respond with revised plans. The plan then usually returns to the planning commission for a recommendation, and the township supervisors make the decision.
