Washington Meadows is a proposal to divide a roughly 30-acre site in West Manchester Township into 11 lots for single-family homes. The township's meeting notice places it at the corner of Taxville Road and Baker Road, in a Rural Residential zone. The county lists the site at 29.7 acres, and the township notice says 29.88 acres.
The plan would connect to public water from two water providers and to public sewer, including a private sewer pipe that pushes wastewater uphill (a force main). The township's notice does not say what is on the land now. At about 11 homes on 30 acres, the layout is low-density.
No news coverage, opposition or developer website was found. The township Planning Commission put the plan on its June 9, 2026 agenda. The outcome was not found.
What it could mean nearby
- Roughly 11 new households would add some traffic on Taxville and Baker Roads, though the records give no traffic study figures.
- Public water and sewer are planned, so homes would not need private wells or septic systems.
- The low density (about one home per 2.7 acres) suggests the area would stay fairly rural in character.
Where it stands
The township Planning Commission reviewed the final subdivision plan at its June 9, 2026 agenda, and the county logged a filing on 2026-04-27. After the commission's review, the plan usually goes to the Board of Supervisors for a final vote. Approved plans are then recorded and the developer can seek building permits.
