Board approves several Summit Crossing modification requests, denies others; directs developer to use Option A

At its Aug. 18 meeting the West Cocalico Township Board of Supervisors took a series of votes on modification requests for the Summit Crossing subdivision and land development plan presented by Landmark. The board repeatedly voted unanimously on modification motions, approving several changes for Blue Lake Road with conditions, denying multiple modification requests tied to Windy Mansion Road, and denying a proposed widening modification for West Main Street‑SR 0897 with a condition that "no parking" signs be installed along West Main Street if the modification were not accepted.

The board directed Landmark to design Summit Crossing using Option A — a 100‑foot radius horizontal curve to connect streets — and required a 180‑day time extension as a condition of one preliminary‑plan modification approval. Specific ordinance sections acted on included modifications to 22‑305.01 (preliminary plan application), 22‑602.5.A (improving existing abutting street), 22‑602.11 (curbing), 22‑602.12 (sidewalk), 22‑602.8.E (streets: horizontal alignment), 22‑607 series (buffers and markers), and denials of joint‑use driveway requests and certain curb/sidewalk/widening requests on Windy Mansion Road and West Main Street. Several approvals were conditioned on Township Engineer and Emergency Management Services sign‑off or PA DEP approval where stormwater rules applied.

The board also recorded a withdrawal: the request to modify Section 22‑602.14.G (dead‑end street primary access for dwelling) was withdrawn by applicant Josh Boultbee. The transcript shows each motion carried unanimously; supervisors making and seconding motions were recorded for the official minutes.
