Trail board presses developer after Devereux plan shows no trails

Wallace Trail Preservation Board · August 19, 2024

Summary

The Wallace Trail Preservation Board said the preliminary Devereux subdivision application (54 sheets, circa 7/11/2024) contained no trails and will monitor the Planning Commission, request trail connections, and walk the site on Sept. 8 to assess feasibility.

Dorothy Kirk, a member of the Wallace Trail Preservation Board, said the board had asked township officials to review the Devereux submission because it lacked mapped trail connections. The preliminary subdivision application (54 sheets, circa 7/11/2024) “has no trails on the plan,” and Dorothy emailed township staff asking that the Board of Supervisors and Planning Commission be shown a plan that includes trail links.

Barb D’Angelo advised the board to wait for a resubmission showing trails before offering detailed commentary, saying the board should "wait until developer puts trails on the plan and then comment as to their appropriateness (does it have a full perimeter trail and provide connections to other trails?)." The board plans to monitor the Planning Commission meeting where Devereux will present and will conduct a site walk on Sept. 8 at 10 a.m. to evaluate whether perimeter and connection trails are feasible. The board also flagged a separate issue: Devereux is vacating student usage by the end of the summer, which may affect how trail connections serve the property.
