The Upper Hanover Township Board of Supervisors authorized scheduling a public hearing to consider a draft Age Restricted Residential Zoning Overlay that would apply to an area of ten parcels, following a Planning Commission recommendation.

The board also approved and authorized the municipal portion of the Hoffman Planning Module for Miller Road, on a motion by Dorothy Diehl seconded by Stefan Laessig, which the minutes record as approved unanimously. Supervisors declined to intervene or take a position on two Zoning Hearing Board variance applications: for a side-yard setback at 3724 Layfield Road (Nolt) and a rear-yard setback at 1316 Frye Road (Visco).
