Commission recommends approval of Koontz lot-line consolidation after technical changes
Summary
The Planning Commission recommended final approval of Gregory Koontz’s lot-line revision affecting multiple Westmoreland County tax parcels, subject to edits to the plan language, parcel data, ownership entries, certifications, and the addition of a revision date and signed non-buildable waivers.
The Salem Township Planning Commission recommended final approval May 7 for a lot-line revision filed by Gregory Koontz that consolidates portions of Westmoreland County Tax Map Parcels 57-10-00-0-008 and 52-11-00-0-004 into nearby parcels, eliminating two existing parcel numbers.
Solicitor Gary Falatovich directed specific changes to the plan language and tables, including revising the Statement of Purpose to describe the subdivision and consolidation across Salem and Loyalhanna townships, amending the Parcel Data Table so Parcel 52-11-00-0-005 shows a post-consolidation total of 5.043 acres, and revising ownership listings on a parcel-by-parcel basis (for example, Parcel 57-10-00-0-008 to list Gregory Koontz and Robert & Rose Bortz with Source of Title Inst No. 202503170006507). The Commission also required insertion of a township certification and a separate Westmoreland County certification block on the plan, a revision number/date, and submission of the SEO-signed Non-Buildable Waiver to the County Planning Department.
Motioned by Paul Holleran and seconded by John Durco, the recommendation for final approval passed unanimously with the stated conditions.
The recommendation will go to the Board of Supervisors for final action; the Commission’s vote was for recording-purpose approval only and does not constitute acceptance of roads into the township system.
