DEP Consent Orders — Sewer Plants
Both public sewer systems serving the Township (AVJSA and ALCOSAN) are under PA DEP Consent Orders requiring costly upgrades. New lots connecting to public sewer must go through the Sewage Facility Planning Module process — may delay or restrict development approvals.
Watershed Impact — Cove Run PRD
172-unit development near active gas well pad and State Game Lands in southwest township. Sewage capacity constrained by DEP Consent Orders. Drains into Cove Run watershed. Largest proposed development in current planning cycle.
Stormwater Fee Waiver Request
Developer for Frederick Farms requested a 50% reduction in stormwater basin inspection/maintenance fees ($64,000 → $32,000). The $16,000/basin fee covers 10 years of Public Works inspection costs. A waiver shifts this cost risk to the Township. Pending Board of Supervisors decision.
Geotechnical / Slope Stability — Frederick Farms
Developer explicitly stated no guarantee can be made that land will not slide, despite the Township requiring professional certification. Creates potential liability exposure post-construction. Bond release contingent on certification.
Solar Energy Ordinance Gap
No Solar Energy Facility ordinance enacted as of early 2026. Draft proposes SEF/BESS as Conditional Use with 20-acre minimum parcel. Until adopted, solar farm applications default to the Zoning Hearing Board as an unidentified use — unpredictable outcomes, no setback protections.
Encroachments — Cove Run / Rosewell Property
Non-conforming sheds from neighboring Diane Lane homeowners encroach on Lot #1 of the Cove Run parcel. Appear to have been built without permits, raising code enforcement and property rights issues ahead of development.
