Commission backs Heinnickel subdivision with note on minimum‑lot modification process

Salem Township Planning Commission · November 6, 2024

Summary

Planning Commission recommended preliminary approval to subdivide a parcel into two lots, and required plan notes on setbacks and minimum lot sizes; any commercial use requiring reduced lot size must include a formal modification request and land‑development review.

Owner Alquin Heinnickel and surveyor Ryan Jones presented a preliminary plan to subdivide tax parcel 57-16-00-0-013 into two lots. Commissioners asked that the plan notes be amended to show a 30‑foot front building line setback, a 2.0‑acre minimum lot size for commercial development, and a 1.0‑acre minimum lot size with 125 feet of frontage for residential development.

Planning noted that, under Section 601(B)(2) of the township SALDO, a written request is required to modify the minimum lot size for commercial use. If the Board of Supervisors grants such a modification, a note to that effect must appear on the recorded plan. The commission also said it would send the applicant a time‑waiver copy so the 90‑day timeline is not violated while details are finalized. A motion by Paul Holleran, seconded by Connie Mattei, recommended approval of the preliminary plan subject to the listed conditions.
