Board approves consent agenda, backs zoning officer in Compass Road use dispute; rejects larger impervious increase
Summary
At its June 10 meeting the Honey Brook Board of Supervisors approved the consent agenda, approved a vendor for manager background checks and adopted a data-center findings resolution. The board also backed the township zoning officer's determination in a contested Compass Road retail/lumberyard case and voted against increasing impervious coverage to 13.43%.
Honey Brook '1 June 10 ' The Honey Brook Board of Supervisors approved its consent agenda and several procedural items and took formal positions on multiple zoning matters during a meeting that ran past 10 p.m.
The board unanimously approved the consent agenda (items 1—14) after a motion and second. It later approved contracting Intercount Solutions Inc. for pre-employment background checks for the township manager recruitment and adopted resolution 2026-1, a follow-up set of findings tied to the township's previously declared review window for data-center zoning.
Why it matters: The consent agenda and routine vendor approvals keep township operations on schedule; the data-center findings continue a 180-day review process that shapes how future data-center applications will be evaluated.
Major board votes and positions - Consent agenda (items 1—14): motion and second; approved. - Intercount Solutions, Inc. pre-employment background check: approved. - Resolution 2026-1 (data-center findings/timeline): approved to continue the review process initiated last month.
Zoning and land-use actions at a glance - The board explicitly supported the zoning officer's determination that a long-running Compass Road dry-goods business does not qualify under the township's rural-occupation rules. That position guides the township's solicitor in the upcoming Zoning Hearing Board proceedings.
- On related site changes proposed by the Compass Road applicant, the supervisors voted not to support a request to increase the property's allowable impervious coverage from the previously approved 9.77% to 13.43%. "I make a motion not to support the increase," said Val, and the motion passed.
The board signaled it will advocate those positions at the Zoning Hearing Board and instructed staff to send the solicitor and supporting materials.
What happens next: For matters going to the Zoning Hearing Board (the Compass Road use/impervious coverage questions), the applicant will present its case and the township will send the solicitor to argue the positions the supervisors adopted. The data-center findings keep the township's extended review timeline active while staff and consultants finish ordinance revisions.
Sources and provenance: Board motions and votes were taken on the record during the public meeting (June 10). Meeting discussion and the votes are reflected in the meeting transcript of the Honey Brook Board of Supervisors for June 10, 2026.
