Planning commission recommends Coltec parking-lot repaving to council with landscaping conditions
Summary
The commission voted to forward a recommendation to council approving a repaving plan for Coltec at 3102 Braun Avenue, contingent on an updated site plan and a landscaping plan specifying low‑lying plantings in islands.
The Murrysville Planning Commission voted to forward a recommendation to borough council for a parking-lot repaving project at 3102 Braun Avenue, subject to conditions.
John Swearingen of Faringer McCarty Gray presented the applicant's proposal to pave an existing stone parking area, described an interceptor trench to manage runoff and said the owner prefers to complete the work this year. Swearingen explained that the design reduces the paved area compared with the existing impervious surface and that the team proposes planting trees and landscape beds to soften the site.
Commissioners asked for a simple landscaping plan and an updated site plan, and asked that any planting in islands be low-growing. A commissioner moved to forward the recommendation for approval to council with the discussed conditions; the motion was seconded and commissioners voted aye by voice. The item will go to council with the commission's recommendation and the condition that the applicant submit the specified materials by the council-submittal deadline.
