North Strabane Holds Two Public Hearings

North Strabane Township Supervisors held two public hearings before beginning their agenda meeting on Tuesday night. The first meeting that took nearly an hour had developers of a 62 unit apartment building participate in a conditional use hearing. The development is called Ashford Place and the applicant is Weavertown Place LLC. The conditional use hearing was held to allow the public to comment on whether they feel that developers are meeting zoning ordinance requirements. The development is to be located on Morganza Road adjacent to the Morgan’s Point residential development. Public comment centered on issues of privacy and child safety, traffic and safety of building materials used. The second hearing was for a conditional use application by 84 Lumber to develop a two story office park on a parcel of land that contains the existing fitness center and training center. The development will be a single building consisting of 4500 square feet of office space per floor. Supervisors are scheduled to vote on both issues at their legislative meeting on August 23.
