Board approves subdivisions and setback waiver; Miranda Place density increase under review
Summary
Supervisors approved subdivision requests for John R. Koenig and Alquin Heinnickel, granted a setback waiver for a 4,000 sq. ft. accessory building at 212 Congruity Road, and discussed a revised Miranda Place proposal increasing density from 24 to 31 townhouses pending final plans and Planning Commission review.
The Salem Township Board of Supervisors on Nov. 20 approved multiple land‑use requests and considered ongoing planning issues. The board granted a setback waiver to Chris Ickes to reduce the front setback from 30 feet to 20 feet for a 4,000‑square‑foot accessory building at 212 Congruity Road and explained the building official cannot issue a permit while the setback is in violation; supervisors described waiver, SALDO application or reduced building size as alternative remedies.
Supervisors approved John Randall Koenig’s subdivision to create one new buildable commercial lot of 8.4801 acres (subject to amending the plan’s statement of purpose and adding revision metadata) and granted conditional subdivision approval and a minimum‑lot‑size modification pathway for Alquin Heinnickel’s Tax Map No. 57‑16‑00‑0‑013 with notes to be added to the recorded plan. Earlier in the meeting Solicitor Falatovich and staff explained that a developer has revised a previously approved Miranda Place plan: an earlier 2021 approval for 24 patio homes was revised to propose 31 townhouses; staff will review submitted subdivision and land development plans to determine application completeness and whether the item can be placed on the December agenda.
