Resident urges RFP for engineering services after alleged misstatements by Township engineer
Summary
At the Feb. 9 Board meeting a resident said the Township Engineer misstated cartway paving-width standards and urged the Board to seek new engineering proposals to ensure accurate plan reviews.
Jason Sobek told the Board that Township Engineer Dan Deiseroth had given inconsistent statements about minimum cartway paving widths—first saying 20 feet, later 22 feet including curbs—while the resident said the ordinance defines the cartway paving width for a local street as 24 feet (cartway excludes curbs). Sobek said those inconsistencies undermine the integrity of plan review.
Sobek requested the Board issue an RFP for Township engineering services so qualified firms can be evaluated and selected to ensure accurate application of the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance during plan review. The complaint referenced plan review accuracy rather than a specific disciplinary action against the engineer.
