Upland Township approves routine resolutions, land-use actions and appointments
Summary
The board approved minutes and departmental reports, passed resolutions including a tax-duplicate update and authorization to remove older YouTube videos, adopted a hotel-ordinance amendment, authorized re-advertisement of an industrial-uses ordinance, approved a $44,200 painting contract for Pine Creek Pump Station, appointed Mimi Baumann to the Industrial Development Authority and approved a conditional-use decision for Eagle View Phase 2.
The Upland Township Board of Supervisors completed its July business agenda with a series of routine approvals and land-use actions.
The board approved the minutes of the 06/25/2026 special meeting and the 07/09/2026 workshop and accepted departmental reports after receiving updates from police, public works, the treasurer, building department, Lionville Fire Company and ambulance services.
Key formal actions taken by voice vote (tallies not specified in the meeting record) included approval of Resolution 2026-21 updating the 2026 tax duplicate (staff reported 14 interim bills totaling $4,934.97, two refunds totaling $1,229.45, and exemption of 16 assessment changes totaling $87.41), and adoption of Resolution 2026-22 authorizing staff to remove township YouTube videos posted prior to 01/01/2025 (staff said approximately 112 videos would be removed and that a similar resolution will appear annually).
The board adopted Ordinance 2026-07 amending the township hotel ordinance (chapter 195) following staff and public comment; the board also authorized staff to re-advertise an industrial-uses ordinance after revisions requested by township and county planning commissions. Staff described notable changes to the industrial-uses draft, including new treatment of commercial delivery vehicles, tightened "substantial change" provisions, elimination of on-site power generation except for solar, and removal of ground-well and surface-water withdrawal allowances.
The board authorized the township manager to contract with CoStar vendor 2 Dudes Painting for interior and exterior painting of the Pine Creek Pump Station for $44,200. The board appointed Mimi Baumann to fill an unexpired term on the Industrial Development Authority through 12/31/2029. The board approved a conditional-use decision for Eagle View Town Center Phase 2 to reconfigure previously approved units into two buildings totaling 93 apartments, permit a 4,800-square-foot commercial addition, and consider reduced parking and increased building height subject to conditions including land-development submission, covenant amendments, impact-fee negotiation, sustainability review and required permits. The board also granted a third extension for the preliminary/final land-development plan for 675 Peck Road through 09/30/2026 to allow the applicant time to address consultant review comments.
Chair announced a multi-session hearing for Rockwell Downingtown LLC beginning July 23, with additional dates July 27 and July 29 at 6 p.m. if needed. Several routine agenda items were handled without extended debate.
All motions described were approved by voice vote in the meeting record; specific vote tallies and any dissenting names were not provided in the transcript.
