Summary

After a brief public hearing, the Board adopted Ordinance 2024-5 (correcting Ordinance 2024-1) by a 2-0 vote and separately authorized the solicitor’s office to draft an amendment to Zoning Ordinance section 27-109; both actions were approved following agenda amendment.

The Williams Township Board of Supervisors adopted a zoning-ordinance correction at its June 12 meeting and asked the township solicitor to draft a further zoning amendment.

Chairperson George Washburn opened and closed a public hearing on the correction described by Township Solicitor Jonathan Riess. The board voted 2-0 to approve Ordinance 2024-5, which the solicitor described as a corrective measure to Ordinance 2024-1.

Separately, Riess asked the board to amend the agenda so his office could prepare a draft amendment to Zoning Ordinance section 27-109; the board approved that request and voted 2-0 to instruct the solicitor’s office to draft the change. No additional details about the substance of the proposed section 27-109 amendment were discussed on the public record.

The township secretary’s minutes note the action but do not include a public comment record on the text of the proposed 27-109 amendment; the Zoning Hearing Board will not meet on June 26, 2024 as previously scheduled, according to the zoning report presented to the board.
