County board approves replacement of community pier, expands L‑head to county standard
Summary
The Lancaster County Wetlands Board approved replacement of a deteriorated 180‑foot community pier and expansion of the L‑head to the 20‑by‑20 size now allowed by county policy.
The Lancaster County Wetlands Board approved a permit to replace a deteriorated community pier and enlarge its L‑head to the 20‑by‑20 size now allowed under county standards.
The applicant’s representative, Joey, said the replacement will largely follow the existing footprint of the 180‑foot pier but will increase the L‑head from the previously permitted size to a 20‑by‑20 platform in line with county allowances for private‑use piers; Joey said the change reflects the county’s current dimension standards for L‑heads.
Olivia, wetlands staff, stated that staff had no additional comments and explained that the item was before the wetlands board because it is a community pier; a private pier would not require a wetlands‑board hearing. A board member moved to approve the replacement and submittal; the motion carried unanimously, recorded as a 5–0 vote.
The approved permit replaces deteriorated community pier structures and increases the platform size consistent with county standards; the meeting record does not include a construction schedule or cost estimate.
