Meixell Jr., county planner,said a number of areas of noncompliance have been addressed, but there are still a few outstanding that must be met before full plan approval.Those include sanitary sewer system requirements and the completion of a performance guarantee and maintenance guarantee.In other matters, the planning commission made recommendations on two additional plans in the county.• Joseph and Judith McCarry received plan approval for a proposed subdivision at 47 Byron Lane, Towamensing Trails, Penn Forest Township.
