Planning Commission

7:00 PM – 8:30 PM 5 present 3 motions

Halifax Township's Planning Commission met on June 4, 2012, with Chairman Fred Ford presiding alongside members Flo Mallonee and Bob Artman; members Steve Sipe and Randy Paul were absent. Solicitor Bruce Warshawsky and Engineer Tom Wilson also attended. The brief session addressed two substantive items: a deferred subdivision plan and a significant update to the township's land development ordinance.

  • SALDO flood plain update forwarded to supervisors: The commission voted 3-0 to recommend the Board of Supervisors adopt a revised Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (SALDO) incorporating new flood plain provisions, which will affect how future development is evaluated in flood-prone areas of the township.
  • Paulvir subdivision plan tabled: At the request of the applicant, the commission voted 3-0 to table the Paulvir plan. Engineer Tony Trost presented on the plan; Solicitor Bruce Warshawsky noted it remains within the established 90-day review window. A revised submission is expected for the July meeting.
