Planning Commission
Summary
The Halifax Township Planning Commission held its monthly business meeting on October 4, 2010 at 7:00 PM, with Chairman Fred Ford presiding. All five members were present — Fred Ford, Bob Artman, Mark Reed, Steve Sipe, and Randy Paul — along with Township Engineer Tom Wilson. Township Secretary Shanemarie Ferguson was not required to attend given the limited formal business on the agenda.
- Lebo subdivision inquiry: Michael and Mrs. Lebo appeared before the commission to receive information about their proposed subdivision, as previously requested. The discussion was informational and no formal action was taken.
- Act 167 Stormwater Management: Mark Reed and Fred Ford reported on a stormwater management meeting they attended at the Dauphin County Conservation District. The commission decided to recommend that the Board of Supervisors seek an extension of the stormwater management plan implementation deadline — though Ford subsequently learned that extensions were not being granted.
- SALDO Section 5 review: The commission continued its ongoing review of Section 5 (Design Standards) of the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance, considering potential modifications as part of a broader ordinance update.
