Summary

The township will schedule a Planning Commission public meeting to discuss SALDO changes including consultant-fee provisions and subdivision definitions; residents asked supervisors to press Delmont Borough to keep manholes below grade and questioned converting a municipal line to a private lateral.

Township Solicitor Falatovich told residents the supervisors are scheduling a Planning Commission public meeting to solicit input on proposed SALDO revisions, specifically consultant-fee provisions consistent with the Municipalities Planning Code and clearer definitions separating minor and major subdivisions and side-lot additions.

Resident Ed Rebitch asked supervisors to seek support from Delmont Borough to keep manholes below grade (the original plan) because surface-level manholes interfere with equipment use. He also questioned the legality of Delmont converting a municipal line to a private lateral; the Board said the matter involves interjurisdictional coordination with Delmont and FTMSA and will be tracked through the Planning/Intergovernmental process.
