The Troy Hills Planning Board on March 3 approved a package of resolutions and motions covering soil-moving permits, site-plan modifications and master-plan consistency for a redevelopment plan.

- 169 Lackawanna Avenue (Block 136, Lot 33) — Redevelopment plan consistency review. The board voted that the proposed redevelopment plan is not inconsistent with the Township Master Plan; motion carried by roll call.
Why it matters: The batch of approvals permits a range of development and remediation activities across the township, from individual soil‑moving permits to clarifying the direction for a 20.63‑acre site at 169 Lackawanna Avenue. The redevelopment-plan consistency finding allows the council to proceed with detailed redevelopment regulations for that site.
Meeting notes: Board members called roll for each resolution; the minutes show affirmative roll‑call votes. Several approvals included minor edits to exhibits, numeric corrections and conditions recommended by the board’s professionals.
