Neighbors,
A Preliminary Subdivision Plan, Application No. 3649, proposing a four lot subdivision of the property at 324 Righters Mill Road, has been submitted to the Department of Building and Planning. The existing building (a Class I historic resource) is proposed to remain on a .35 acre lot and function as a two unit dwelling. The existing garage is proposed to be demolished. Two, .2 acre lots will be created on either side of the existing building and will be accessed via the existing cemetery loop driveway. Both lots will contain a 1,700 square feet single family home with an attached garage. The cemetery will remain on a separate 2.1 acre lot. The applicant has also submitted a Conditional Use application to create the rear cemetery lot. Merion Hall and Cemetery Association is the owner of the property and Jeff Glassberg is the applicant.
A copy of this plan is attached to this e-mail and on file with the Department of Building and Planning, Planning Division. The application is tentatively scheduled for review by the Historical Architectural Review Board on April 7, 2010 and action by the Planning Commission on May 3, 2010. The Building and Planning Committee will hold a Conditional Use Public Hearing on May 12, 2010 at approximately 6:30 p.m. These dates are tentative and could change based on the complexity of the issues involved with the application.

1/08/10 - 105 Maple Hill Road
The property owner has requested a preliminary opinion from Mike Wylie confirming that the existing lot At 105 Maple Hill Road is an existing buildable lot, even though it is smaller than the current zoning would permit.
The Preliminary Opinion provision was added to the PA Municipalities Planning Code toprovide a property owner to obtain an opinion from the Zoning Officer and allow the 30 appeal process to occur before going to the expense of fully engineering a plan. Under PA law we are only required toadvertise this opinion in the paper but it has been our policy to notify the ward Commissioner and the local Civic representative, and post the property when we issue a Preliminary Opinionso there is local community notice that this request has been submitted.
Any party that does not agree with this opinion has 30 days to file an appeal. If an appeal is not filed within the 30 day appeal period, the right to appeal this determination expires.
Call Mike Wylie for questions and written opinion: 610-645-6172
