Summary
Chester City Council granted final approval Feb. 26 for a plan to reverse subdivide 10 lots into one lot at 609 West Third Street, conditioned on addressing remaining planning and engineering comments.
Chester City Council granted final approval Feb. 26 for a plan by Greg Zyla to reverse subdivide 10 lots into a single lot at 609 West Third Street, Chester, Pa., conditioned on addressing outstanding review comments from the city Planning and Zoning Department and Colliers Engineering and Design.
The resolution cites recommendations from the Chester City Planning Commission (02/12/2025) and the Delaware County Planning Commission (11/22/2024) and relies on a plan prepared by Lynn Architects dated Aug. 30, 2024 and revised Jan. 23, 2025. The council vote was recorded as yes from Councilor Green, Councilor West, Councilor Davis and Mayor Root, and the resolution passed.
During brief council remarks, Mayor Root praised the property owner and project partner Greg Zyla, calling the company's work “really making us proud.” The resolution requires the applicant to address the remaining comments outlined in the Planning and Zoning Department review letter dated Jan. 31, 2025 and the Colliers Engineering and Design review letter dated Feb. 6, 2025 before final implementation.
No public objections or conditions beyond the stated review-letter comments were recorded in the meeting transcript. The resolution authorizes city officials to record the approval; no building permits or construction start dates were specified during the session.
