West Goshen approves land development at 1052 Andrew Drive for new 10,000 sq. ft. building
Summary
The Board of Supervisors granted preliminary/final land‑development approval for the Sabo property at 1052 Andrew Drive to demolish an existing bank and build a new 10,000-square-foot building, subject to standard engineering and administrative conditions. Vote was 5-0.
The West Goshen Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Nov. 7 to approve resolution 29-2024, granting preliminary and final land-development approval for the Sabo property at 1052 Andrew Drive.
Town staff and the developer presented plans to demolish the existing bank building, move the replacement structure closer to Andrew Drive, add a new western access and provide a contractor-storage area at the rear of the site. The proposal includes two underground stormwater beds (north and east of the new building) to manage runoff.
"The proposal is to demolish the building, construct a new building closer to Andrew Drive ... there are two underground stormwater beds ... proposed for stormwater management to control the site," the project engineer said during the presentation. The board asked technical questions about existing stormwater drainage, lighting limits at the property line (0.1 foot-candle was confirmed) and tree removal; the developer said 19 trees will be removed and about 10 will be planted in replacement, and planning commission and staff recommended approval.
With no public objections recorded on the record, the board took a voice vote; the chair announced, "motion carries 5 to 0." Conditions noted in staff review letters and standard financial-security and operations-and-maintenance agreements remain to be completed before final permits are issued.
