Carbon County Planning Commission recently reviewed three submissions and sent all three back to their developers with conditional plan rejection.

The first plan discussed was a proposal to relocate the Pennsylvania State Police barracks to a new location at he intersection of Sei Pike Lane and Interchange Road.According to Ivan Meixell Jr., the plans include combining a 1.42 acre lot with a 1.57 acre lot to create a 3-acre lot. The proposal includes a 8,235 square foot barracks, parking lot and impound area, water and sewage facilities and storm water controls.Last month the board also rejected the plans and this month, the developers provided documentation that strikes the zoning use issue from the plans. Falling Creek Investments, Inc., provided documentation regarding the zoning use issue to the Carbon County Planning Commission. Based on that documentation, the comments that police barracks are not permitted use on the property was removed from the plans. However, the plans still have 19 additional issues that must be corrected before the plans can move forward.Issues not shown/submitted include :* Driveway radius for access drives.* Name and address of property owner.* Location of soil percolation test and probe holes on plan and results of soil percolation test and probe holes.* Right of way widths for Sei Pike Lane and Interchange Road.* Proposed inlet near the front of the building has no connection to any storm water facility.* Material, size and invert elevation of the storm water inlet near the front of the building.* Roadway drainage facilities including drainage pipes.* Storm water run-off calculations and the proposed method of accommodating the anticipated run-off.* Wetland statement, whether there are or are not any wetlands on the site.* Proposed tie-ins to the existing cart way.* Signed statement to the effect that the applicant is the owner and that the land development shown on the final plan is made with his free consent and that it is desired to record the same.* Signed statement by the engineer responsible for the plan regarding accuracy and correctness of the file.* Typical cross sections and profiles for proposed driveways.* Soil erosion and sedimentation control plan.* Storm water drainage plan.* Proposed method of ownership, maintenance and repair of storm water drainage facilities and other improvements, in perpetuity and a copy of the private deed restrictions referencing such method of ownership, maintenance and repair.* Certificate for approval signatures for Towamensing Township Planning Commission and board of supervisors.Also receiving conditional plan rejection was a proposal by Gerald and Sharon Smith and Werner Schultz to subdivide property at 681 Walnut Drive in Towamensing Township. The proposed subdivision would provide for a lot line revision/subdivision.Meixell said that he found several areas of non-compliance with the Towamensing Township Land Development Ordinances. He noted that there are no signed statements to the effect that the applicants are the owner of the land proposed to be developed. He also noted that the signed statement of the surveyor responsible for the plan regarding accuracy and correctness of the file information is not completed. He said that the typical cross sections and profiles for the proposed driveway is not shown or submitted and the soil erosion and sedimentation control plan for the proposed driveway is not submitted.The third proposal was a minor subdivision in Mahoning Township by William Grant, president of Northland Development Company. The Summit Ridge subdivision is located on Mahoning Drive West. Meixell said that the plan lacks plan requirements of the Mahoning Township Land Development Ordinances.* There is a discrepancy in the amount of total acreage.* Pavement widths for Huron Court and Pleasant View Drive not shown.* Owner affidavit that the applicant is the owner or equitable owner of the land proposed to be subdivided and the source of title to the tract of land not completed.* State duly acknowledged before an officer authorized to take acknowledgment of deeds and signed by the owner of the property to the effect that the subdivision as shown on the final plan is made with his free consent.* Access agreement between the owner of lot four and lot five should be completed to alleviate any future issues between property owners to allow owner of lot four access to perform maintenance on detention basin.* New usable acreage should be shown on the plan.
