The West Cocalico Township Board of Supervisors on Aug. 18 approved a package of land‑development modifications for the Summit Crossing project and denied several modification requests affecting Windy Mansion Road and West Main Street (SR 0897).
During discussion the board indicated Landmark should proceed using Option 'A' — a 100‑foot radius horizontal curve — to connect the new streets and asked that the stub street align with the neighboring development. Supervisors voted unanimously on a series of motions that approved multiple modifications for Blue Lake Road (several conditioned on a 180‑day time extension, engineer and emergency‑services approval, or PA DEP action) and denied a number of requested waivers for Windy Mansion Road and West Main Street.
The board also denied a requested widening modification for West Main Street-SR 0897 with the condition that "no parking" signs are installed along West Main Street, a condition stated in the motion record. Other approvals included modifications for curb, sidewalk, reverse‑frontage planting buffers, metallic right‑of‑way markers, street‑tree requirements (conditioned on meeting cumulative tree counts for all lots), flag lots (subject to engineer and EMS approval), and horizontal alignment (conditioned on engineer and EMS satisfaction). One requested modification for dead‑end primary access was withdrawn by the applicant.
Stormwater items tied to the development were handled separately: the motion on storm‑sewer pipe size was postponed until plans are finalized; the board approved a volume‑control modification conditioned on PA DEP approval; and the board approved an interior side‑slope modification conditioned on a solicitor‑approved hold‑harmless agreement.
The board recorded unanimous votes on the motions as they appeared in the meeting minutes; no member recorded a dissent for the listed approvals and denials. The board's direction to use Option 'A' provides the applicant a clear design path for the horizontal alignment of Summit Crossing.
