FTMA proposes 30-by-64-foot garage at Crescent Drive; board told building could be ready by mid‑summer
Summary
During a workshop discussion labeled “with FTMA,” Jason Orsini described a proposed 30' x 64' garage at Crescent Drive and Route 30, asking for fill (but 'no big chunks of concrete'), noting doors would be 14 feet and that landscaping and a Duquesne Light right‑of‑way affect placement; application to appear at the March regular meeting.
Jason Orsini, speaking during a workshop agenda item identified as a discussion with FTMA, described plans for a proposed garage at Crescent Drive and Route 30 and said the site could use fill "but no big chunks of concrete." Brandon Stanick, assistant manager, told the board that the Zoning Hearing Board recommended six‑foot shrubs and a fence and that the Planning Commission reviewed elevations for the proposal.
Orsini said two nearby business owners opposed planting trees inside the fence and prefer a landscaped buffer outside the fenced area. Stanick noted placement also must account for the Duquesne Light right‑of‑way. He told the board the application will be presented at the township's March regular meeting.
The proposal includes 14‑foot doors and a building described in the record as 30 feet by 64 feet. Orsini said he anticipates the structure could be up by mid‑summer and mentioned that there has been discussion of a community garden in a sloped portion of the site. Orsini also said the Westport facility is expected to be put out to bid in early 2027.
Next steps: the application moves to the Board's March regular meeting for consideration and any formal permitting or zoning approvals.
