Board approves minor subdivision to keep pond with adjacent R‑1 lot at 13 Riddle Lane

Upper Providence Township Board of Supervisors · July 20, 2026

Summary

Board adopted Resolution 2026‑33 to approve a minor lot‑line adjustment at 13 Riddle Lane that transfers a 1.4‑acre portion (including an existing pond) from a larger parcel to an adjacent R‑1 residential lot; no new lots or building improvements were proposed.

Paul Leppard, director of planning and landscape architecture at Mayfield, presented the application for a minor subdivision at 13 Riddle Lane. He explained the seller wants to convey a 1.4‑acre portion of a larger 21‑acre parcel to an existing residential lot so that the existing pond and surrounding landscape remain with the home. "It's literally a lot‑line change between the two parcels," Leppard said; no additional lots or improvements were proposed.

Board members asked questions about zoning and whether any filling or development of the pond was planned; staff and the applicant said no filling or development is proposed and the parcel’s zoning context will remain unchanged for the retained pond area. The board adopted Resolution 2026‑33 approving the minor subdivision by voice vote.
