Final approval granted for Trooper Ridge Townhomes; HOA and utility responsibilities clarified

Worcester Township Board of Supervisors · July 15, 2026

Summary

Board approved Resolution 2026-10 for Trooper Ridge Townhomes' final land development, with standard conditions, sidewalk fee-in-lieu for a steep segment, and clarification that sewer beyond the property line is township responsibility to Berwick Place treatment plant.

Applicant representatives described the Trooper Ridge Townhomes final plan and answered board questions on permitting, DEP approvals, waivers, HOA responsibilities and sewer connections.

Robert Locke and owner Jim O'Donnell explained the project has progressed through sketch and preliminary approvals; the applicant requested waivers including a fee-in-lieu for sidewalk where steep slopes preclude construction and a partial lighting waiver on Trooper Road. The team said the community is intended to be one phase with professional HOA management; a grinder pump/force main will serve the development and connect across Germantown Pike to the Heritage Village pump station and ultimately to the Berwick Place treatment plant. Township staff confirmed that assets beyond the property line in the roadway are township responsibility.

The board voted to approve Resolution 2026-10 with conditions, noting that receipt of outside permits (including DEP) is required before final plan recording.
