Commission recommends Heinnickel two‑lot subdivision with lot‑size conditions
Summary
Owner Alquin Heinnickel sought to split parcel 57-16-00-0-013 into two lots; the Planning Commission asked for note amendments, a written modification request if either lot will be commercial, and a revision number/date on the plan before final recording.
At the Nov. 6 meeting the Salem Township Planning Commission reviewed a proposed two‑lot subdivision for Tax Parcel 57-16-00-0-013 presented by owner Alquin Heinnickel and surveyor Ryan Jones.
The commission required amendments to the plan notes: a 30‑foot front building line setback; a minimum lot size of 2.0 acres for commercial developments; and a minimum lot size of 1.0 acres with at least 125 feet of frontage for residential developments. The commission said any requested modification of the minimum commercial lot size under Section 601(B)(2) must be submitted in writing; if the modification is granted, a specific notation must appear on the plan indicating that the Board of Supervisors approved the lot‑size modification for the affected lots.
Connie Mattei explained there is no separate commercial frontage requirement in the borough SALDO and that the 15‑foot side and rear setbacks comply for the existing veterinary clinic. The commission advised that if Lot 2 were sold for residential use the owner would not need to submit a land‑development application; if Lot 2 were to be used commercially, a land‑development application and a formal modification request would be required. The commission moved and voted to recommend preliminary approval subject to the stated conditions.
