Council approves two-way conversion on Adrian Street to serve proposed 12-unit building
Summary
Council approved Ordinance 1291 to shorten a one-way segment of Adrian Street and allow two-way access to the rear parking of a proposed 12-unit building at 308 Broad Street; approval was conditioned on the requester paying advertising and signage costs and passed 7–0.
Emmaus Borough Council on Aug. 17 approved Ordinance 1291 to convert a short portion of Adrian Street from one-way to two-way to provide access to the parking area of a proposed 12-unit apartment building at 308 Broad Street.
Borough staff reported that first responders reviewed the plan and indicated the narrower section would still function for emergency vehicles. Council discussed the width and the likely traffic impacts and amended the motion to require the requester to pay for the ordinance advertisement and any signage changes. The motion carried by roll call, 7–0.
Council and staff noted the planning and engineering review will still be required as part of any land-development application; the ordinance change addresses on-street circulation and the developer will be responsible for signage and advertisement costs as part of the approval.
