North Strabane Township Supervisors held a public hearing for a conditional use application for the proposed Hidden Acres development that would be built along Christy Road. Residents from the area filled the meeting room to hear details. The development proposed by Laurel Landings is a Conservation Subdivision plan that would see 161 homes built on 201 acres. The lot sizes for the homes average .8 acres. The developer’s presentation indicated that all conditions for approval have been met. The hearing only covered the concept plan and whether all ordinance conditions were met. A few minor issues need to be addressed before approval can be granted. Nearly all of the ten residents that took part in public comment spoke about the danger that additional traffic on Christy Road would present. Bob Cox likened the road to a paved over horse path. Others questioned the traffic study numbers and were concerned that package delivery vehicles and other such traffic was not considered. Even more pointed out other road challenges that increased traffic would present where sections of Christy and adjoining roads are narrow. Railroad abutments and single lane bridges also complicate traffic flow. The meeting remains open until February 25 when supervisors expect to vote on approval of the matter.
