Township approves park site designs, authorizes DCNR grant application and schedules public hearings on data center and curative amendment
Summary
The board approved site design drawings for Sunset and Braeburn parks enabling grant applications, approved a DCNR grant resolution, and set continued public hearings for the Data Center ordinance (Feb. 11) and a curative amendment (Feb. 18), cancelling a previously scheduled Jan. 14 hearing.
JMT Engineering representative Andy Mears presented site design drawings for Sunset and Braeburn parks and told the board public input was gathered in prior meetings. The board approved the site design documents to allow the township to apply for grant funding to support park improvements.
Separately, the board approved Resolution 2026-06 to support a DCNR grant application by the Londonderry Company; the motion carried unanimously.
On land-use process timing, the board scheduled a continued public hearing on the Data Center ordinance for Feb. 11, 2026, and — after the township received an extension in the legal action tied to the curative amendment — set a public hearing for Feb. 18, 2026 and cancelled the Jan. 14 hearing previously scheduled. The minutes record these scheduling actions as motions with unanimous votes.
Why it matters: approving site designs and authorizing grant applications positions the township to seek external funding for park improvements; scheduling the data center and curative amendment hearings establishes the next opportunities for public comment and formal deliberation on significant land-use matters.
Next steps recorded in the minutes: staff may submit grant applications and the board will revisit the Data Center ordinance and the curative amendment on the scheduled dates.
