           1                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  We'll call the
           2    regularly scheduled meeting of the Tobyhanna
           3    Township Planning Commission for October 1st, 2009
           4    to order.  Is there any public comment?
           5                         The first order of business is
           6    to approve the September 2009 minutes which were
           7    submitted to us electronically and copies should be
           8    available here in the room if anyone would like
           9    them.
          10                         Do we have a motion?
          11                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  I'll make that
          12    motion.
          13                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Do I have a
          14    second?
          15                         MS. RINEHIMER:  I'll second it.
          16                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Al those in
          17    favor please say aye.
          18                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  Aye.
          19                         MS. RINEHIMER:  Aye.
          20                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Aye.
          21                         Next item on our agenda is the
          22    Wee-Wons Day Care expansion.  How are you?
          23                         MS. GUYDISH:  Obviously we're
          24    not going to be doing our large expansion, okay,
          25    that we had planned, but I do have a question,





           1    because I don't know the next step.
           2                         I would like to add an office
           3    space on the back of the building.  The building is
           4    both residential and commercial.  Do I need an
           5    entire land development plan?  It's just going to
           6    be a small space.  I believe I got some information
           7    from zoning, I just need you guys to direct me if
           8    that's a feasible thing that I can do.
           9                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  How big is the
          10    expansion?
          11                         MS. GUYDISH:  You tell me what I
          12    can do without a land development plan.  I don't
          13    know.
          14                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Ms. Guydish, I'm
          15    Pat Armstrong.  We exchanged emails.  For the
          16    commission's perspective, remember last month you
          17    made a recommendation to deny the plan because it's
          18    been sitting dormant for over a year.  Subsequent
          19    to that letter I received an email from Ms.
          20    Guydish, and apparently she wants to change the
          21    plan a little bit as she's indicated tonight.  Now,
          22    the plan, as I understand it, was for a commercial
          23    expansion of the day care center as well as a
          24    little bit of residential expansion.
          25                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.





           1                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And then you
           2    went before the zoning hearing board for a special
           3    exception and variance.  You received a conditional
           4    approval for that.  The approval had some
           5    conditions on it.
           6                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.
           7                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And now you want
           8    to change the plan for office space?
           9                         MS. GUYDISH:  Just an office
          10    space.
          11                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  It's not
          12    residential, it's going to be office space?
          13                         MS. GUYDISH:  Well, it's office
          14    space.  You will enter it -- the way the building
          15    is designed, you can enter it through my home,
          16    through the foyer of my home, which is conducive to
          17    the people coming into the business, where we need
          18    like a conferencing room or private discussion, or
          19    you can enter it externally.  So you tell me.  Is
          20    it residential?  Is it commercial?  It's going to
          21    be -- the way I have it planned in my mind, we'll
          22    have two French doors from the interior of the
          23    house that can be locked.  People can enter that
          24    way or they can enter externally.
          25                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  But it will be





           1    used --
           2                         MS. GUYDISH:  As an office
           3    strictly.  It would be my private office, but any
           4    time a parent needs a private conference, if any of
           5    my staff needs to use it as a private conferencing
           6    room, they can.
           7                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Commercial.
           8                         MS. GUYDISH:  Okay.
           9                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  How large would
          10    you say it was?
          11                         MS. GUYDISH:  I'm not going to
          12    go through the whole land development phase.  It's
          13    way too costly.  So when I called over here I
          14    believe someone said if you keep it close to 200
          15    square feet, but I don't know.  I don't have the
          16    facts.  I did not choose to read the zoning book.
          17    I have it, I didn't choose to read it.  Tell me
          18    what I need to do.
          19                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  What you're
          20    telling the commission is you're going to pretty
          21    much scrap everything but this little --
          22                         MS. GUYDISH:  Absolutely.
          23                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And it will be
          24    used for commercial.  And you want to know how
          25    small it needs to be to fall under land





           1    development.
           2                         MS. GUYDISH:  And what my next
           3    step is and what I must do.
           4                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  But you did
           5    receive a waiver from the zoning hearing board --
           6    variance, I'm sorry, for commercial use.
           7                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.
           8                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Actually, you
           9    got a special exception approval, but the variance
          10    was for acreage I think for a day care center.
          11                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  You needed five
          12    acres and you didn't have it.
          13                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.
          14                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  What I'm looking
          15    at is the Tobyhanna Township Zoning Ordinance,
          16    Section 155.16.i.  And in here there is commercial
          17    district planning and all building permit
          18    applications for site development plans, land
          19    development plans and subdivision plans, whether
          20    the same be a major or minor subdivision related to
          21    lands which are situated in commercial districts,
          22    which this is --
          23                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.
          24                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  -- shall first
          25    be reviewed by the Tobyhanna Township Planning





           1    Commission and thereafter the Tobyhanna Township
           2    Board of Supervisors, except permits for
           3    construction and development involving 200 square
           4    feet or less may be issued by the zoning officer
           5    and need not be reviewed by the Tobyhanna Township
           6    Planning Commission and the Tobyhanna Township
           7    Board of Supervisors.
           8                         Basically, this is in the zoning
           9    ordinance.  It's surprising it's not in the SALDO.
          10    It's almost like a written-in waiver of land
          11    development.  Typically, someone comes in with a
          12    certain size, it's not a significant size, they
          13    think they should get away with land development,
          14    they can always come before the township board of
          15    supervisors and request a waiver of land
          16    development.  And it looks like you're not really
          17    looking to request a waiver, you just want to build
          18    something and it's small enough that you don't have
          19    to go through --
          20                         MS. GUYDISH:  That's right.
          21                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And it looks
          22    like, according to this section of the zoning
          23    ordinance, it would be 200 square feet.
          24                         MS. GUYDISH:  So what is my next
          25    thing?  If I keep it under 200 square feet is there





           1    a height limit, because my home is on a second
           2    floor, so I did want to make it at least -- it will
           3    be 200 square feet, but I want it to have a
           4    cathedral ceiling in it so it blends in with the
           5    home.  Is it just the footprint?
           6                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  This is just
           7    square footage.
           8                         MR. McHALE:  That's floor area.
           9                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Which would
          10    include both the first and second floor.
          11                         MR. McHALE:  Floor area is just
          12    one floor.
          13                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  38 feet.
          14                         MS. GUYDISH:  Okay.  That's
          15    fine.
          16                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Now, both
          17    stories will be used for commercial?
          18                         MS. GUYDISH:  I'm just using --
          19    it's just going to be one floor, but it will be
          20    with a cathedral ceiling so it blends with the rest
          21    of the house, the exterior.
          22                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  That's fine.
          23                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  I misunderstood
          24    what you said.
          25                         MS. GUYDISH:  No problem.  Now,





           1    do I need architectural drawings?  Can I draw it
           2    up?  Do they have to be sealed, printed, what?
           3                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Probably your
           4    best bet, this is -- if you are going to -- yeah,
           5    you're going to have to present something showing
           6    what you're proposing.
           7                         MS. GUYDISH:  Okay.
           8                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  If it's going to
           9    be 200 square feet or less, it will be something
          10    that you will deal with the zoning officer about,
          11    making sure you comply with all the other -- you
          12    still have to comply with all the township
          13    ordinances.  So you have to show her what you're
          14    proposing, plans showing 200 square feet or less
          15    that's going to be used for commercial.  And you're
          16    going to need a building permit from the code
          17    enforcement officer.  But that's a separate issue.
          18    That's under the construction code.
          19                         MS. GUYDISH:  So once I get this
          20    drawn up, do they have to be by an architect with a
          21    seal.
          22                         MR. McHALE:  You need to talk to
          23    the building code official.
          24                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  For the building
          25    code official I would image you want to discuss





           1    that with them.  But I'm assuming --
           2                         MR. McHALE:  It's a commercial
           3    structure, I would guess.
           4                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Yes.
           5                         MR. McHALE:  You better talk to
           6    them.
           7                         MS. GUYDISH:  Where do I contact
           8    them at?
           9                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  I'm assuming the
          10    township would have contact information.
          11                         MR. McHALE:  Yes.  If you would
          12    get ahold of the folks in the front office, in the
          13    administration first thing in the morning, if you
          14    wish, they can give you all the phone numbers to
          15    the proper people and forms for the zoning permit
          16    and give you the proper guidance.
          17                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Before you
          18    leave, there is -- you do have a pending plan that
          19    was filed back in '06 maybe?
          20                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.
          21                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  '06, '07.
          22    Sometime in that timeframe.
          23                         MS. GUYDISH:  '07.
          24                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  That's still
          25    pending.  This board, this commission has already





           1    made a recommendation for denial.  It sounds to me
           2    like -- are you no longer pursuing that plan?
           3                         MS. GUYDISH:  I am no longer
           4    pursuing that plan.
           5                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  She should
           6    withdraw it then.
           7                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  I mean, it could
           8    be done either way.  I would prefer that you
           9    withdraw it.  It would be by way of a letter to the
          10    township saying I hereby withdraw the plan
          11    identified, that way the board of supervisors don't
          12    have to waste time denying it and I don't have to
          13    waste time drafting a letter denying it.
          14                         MS. GUYDISH:  Okay.
          15                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Just a letter to
          16    the township in the near future because I think the
          17    time is in the second week of October when the
          18    township needs to act.  So a letter to the township
          19    indicating that you wish to withdraw your plan and
          20    identify the plan and have it withdrawn and taken
          21    off our agenda.
          22                         MS. GUYDISH:  I'll contact the
          23    front office about what I'm trying to do right now.
          24                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Right.  You're
          25    going to want to talk to the zoning officer about





           1    the square footage and compliance with the zoning
           2    ordinance.  And you're going to want to get contact
           3    information for the building code officials for the
           4    township which is the Bureau of Veritas.  They used
           5    to be Guardian.  Now they've merged.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  You must have
           7    dealt with --
           8                         MS. GUYDISH:  I dealt with
           9    Guardian.
          10                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  It's the same
          11    thing, it's just a different -- the office is still
          12    in Coolbaugh.
          13                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  You will be
          14    submitting a letter withdrawing your plan?
          15                         MS. GUYDISH:  Yes.  Thank you
          16    very much.
          17                         (At this time Ms. Haase appeared
          18    at the hearing.)
          19                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Phyllis, do you
          20    want to know what they -- what Wee-Wons is
          21    proposing now is I would say a bump out for an
          22    office to be used for the day care center, like a
          23    commercial office space.
          24                         MS. HAASE:  Yes.
          25                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And she wants to





           1    fall under the -- under the zoning ordinance it's
           2    200 square feet for commercial uses, whereas, if
           3    she's 200 square feet or under it's basically a
           4    waiver -- it looks like a waiver of land
           5    development.
           6                         MS. HAASE:  Correct.
           7                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  So she's going
           8    to be looking to fall within that 200 or less
           9    square footage for the office.
          10                         MR. McHALE:  And it's a single
          11    story with 200 square feet or less, for less than
          12    200 square feet, but she wanted to vault the
          13    ceiling to go closer to the height of her
          14    residential structure.
          15                         MS. HAASE:  Okay.
          16                         And the special exception and
          17    variance?
          18                         MR. McHALE:  It's for commercial
          19    use.
          20                         MS. HAASE:  Commercial.  Okay.
          21                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Now, she's going
          22    to be coming in to talk to you probably just to
          23    confirm compliance with the zoning ordinance and
          24    the square footage, I guess, once she has a plan
          25    mapped out, and she's also going to get contact





           1    information for the Bureau of Veritas, the building
           2    code official.  And she's going to need a building
           3    permit.
           4                         MS. HAASE:  Sure.  Call me
           5    Cathy.  We'll go over it.
           6                         MS. GUYDISH:  Thank you.
           7                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  You will be
           8    submitting.
           9                         MS. GUYDISH:  I'll be submitting
          10    the letter.  Do you want me to hand deliver it?
          11                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  That's
          12    probably --
          13                         MS. GUYDISH:  Give it to
          14    somebody in the office?
          15                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Just as long as
          16    the supervisors get it before the next meeting.
          17                         MS. GUYDISH:  That date is?
          18                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  They have a work
          19    session on Monday, don't worry about that.  It's
          20    the next meeting, which will be the following
          21    Monday.
          22                         MS. GUYDISH:  Can I just say I'm
          23    withdrawing my --
          24                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Pending land
          25    development and identify the plan number.  It will





           1    all be in Bob's review letter from 2007 for
           2    identification.
           3                         MS. GUYDISH:  Finding Bob's
           4    review letter from '07 may be something.  You want
           5    me to place a number on that?
           6                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Here.  I
           7    probably have it.  I just want to make sure you
           8    identify the plan properly.
           9                         It would be withdrawing your
          10    land development plan for the Wee-Wons Day Care
          11    expansion, land development application project No.
          12    2007-003.
          13                         MS. GUYDISH:  Thank you very
          14    much.
          15                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Thanks, Cathy.
          16    Good luck.
          17                         MS. GUYDISH:  Thank you.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Next item on the
          19    agenda is Locust Ridge Quarry.  No one is present
          20    representing them?
          21                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Remember, we
          22    received a letter from them indicating due to
          23    economic hardship they are going to postpone moving
          24    forward with their plan for a while.
          25                         MR. McHALE:  I believe they said





           1    they would be resubmitting before December or
           2    sometime in December.
           3                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Yes.  If they
           4    decide to move forward it would be before December.
           5                         So we need no action on that.
           6                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Just before we
           7    move on, as you recall, Glorious Church also had a
           8    conditional use and land development plan.  You
           9    made a recommendation last month and in response
          10    they've actually withdrawn their plans.
          11                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Next item on our
          12    agenda is Arrowhead Lake recreational Lodge.
          13                         This is a sketch plan
          14    submission.
          15                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
          16                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  This is a sketch
          17    plan presubmission.  Actually, a conditional use
          18    application has not been --
          19                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  It has not
          20    been submitted.
          21                         MS. HAASE:  Mr. Chairman, if I
          22    may, this is a presubmission conference for the
          23    conditional use application.
          24                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  My name is
          25    Mike Fenick.  I'm with Pennoni Associates.  I'm





           1    here to talk to you about the Arrowhead Lake
           2    Community Lodge project.  Currently we have an
           3    existing plan, but the first sheet that I show you
           4    shows you the existing conditions.  They wanted to
           5    pretty much update their existing lodge that has no
           6    longer been used for quite some time due to some
           7    problems with the building and stuff like that.
           8    It's currently been removed from the premises.  Now
           9    it's pretty much an open site there.  You will see
          10    gravel parking, there is existing pavement parking.
          11    What they wish to do is actually update it with a
          12    building that is approximately 12,500 square feet.
          13    The building is going to house a great room, a
          14    fitness center, billiard room and actually a
          15    banquet hall which will seat 250 people.
          16                         As you can see from the plans,
          17    we have accommodated for the 250 people being the
          18    peak event.  That works out to be 73 spaces,
          19    including handicap.  You can see right here this
          20    area right in here, there is existing tennis courts
          21    which we wanted to limit the amount of earth
          22    disturbance as well.  So we'll utilize their
          23    existing tennis courts for parking as well.  There
          24    is going to be tennis courts somewhere else in the
          25    community.





           1                         If there is any questions, I'd
           2    open the floor to you.
           3                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Did I understand
           4    you to say that the existing lodge has been
           5    demolished?
           6                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Has been
           7    demolished.  The existing lodge was right in there.
           8                         MS. HAASE:  Mike, as you speak
           9    to the commission members I'm just going to hand
          10    out some sections of the zoning ordinance.  Okay?
          11                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  What about the
          12    sewer usage for this building?
          13                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Currently
          14    right now Arrowhead Lake is in the process of
          15    revising their Act 537 plan.  They have a
          16    consultant.  They are in the process of actually
          17    permitting.  They are in the process of updating
          18    their 537 and permitting the unpermitted sanitary
          19    lines within the community.  Arrowhead is aware of
          20    this process and once the project comes to
          21    fruition, at the end of the day they will be able
          22    to hook up to the sanitary system.  We are aware
          23    that there is no holding tanks allowed by the
          24    township, and you know, they will have to do some
          25    testing to see if they can get an on-lot, stuff





           1    like that, which probably won't happen because the
           2    soils there are not conducive to having an on-lot
           3    system.  It's very wet in this area.  And, you
           4    know, the parking will take up the majority of the
           5    front of Lake Shore Drive.  So what we would do is,
           6    as the land development moves forward, we'll submit
           7    the plans to the planning commission, the board of
           8    supervisors and ask for a conditional approval upon
           9    this item and then knowing that at the end of the
          10    day, when this project is completed, they will have
          11    to tie into the existing sanitary system.
          12                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  What are you
          13    proposing for stormwater?
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Right now
          15    we are in the process of working that out.  Again,
          16    the soils are not going to be conducive to the
          17    subsurface or detention or retention.  It's very
          18    wet.  And being so close to the lake where we
          19    may -- right in here, we started, you know,
          20    draining out a little stormwater facility.  We may
          21    be requesting a waiver, which we may not need,
          22    stormwater requirements set forth in the zoning
          23    ordinance, but we have a couple things we want to
          24    try before we go ahead with that and present that.
          25    I believe Chad Wellow (phonetic) spoke with





           1    Mr. McHale about that on the phone.
           2                         MR. McHALE:  His proposal right
           3    now would be to treat the water for water quality
           4    purposes, as Mike was describing, to the side of
           5    the building and then discharge into the lake
           6    with -- not a point source discharge, but like a
           7    level spreader or something to that effect.
           8                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  What
           9    happens is, where the site is, we are at the bottom
          10    of their overall drainage area, and we are so close
          11    to the lake that it's --  just like Bob said, with
          12    a level spreader -- we may miss them by just a few
          13    CFS, a couple CFS to discharge into the lake.  And
          14    we just had a meeting with the Monroe Conservation
          15    District, and there were questions about whether
          16    this project would need NPDS permit given the
          17    amount of earth disturbance.  We tried to keep it
          18    under an acre nonpoint discharge and we've been
          19    directed by them we can go over the one acre golden
          20    rule earth disturbance as long as we are not
          21    creating a nonpoint discharge for the project.
          22                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Any other member
          23    have a question at this time?
          24                         MS. RINEHIMER:  No.
          25                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Phyllis, do you





           1    have something you wanted to bring to our attention
           2    at this time?
           3                         MS. HAASE:  The only concern I
           4    had, you did speak to Princeton Hydrology --
           5                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We are in
           6    the process of contacting them.  The architect on
           7    board is trying to get ahold of them.  We are
           8    trying to get them to contact folks at Arrowhead.
           9    We are trying to get this paperwork sent to us to
          10    see exactly where they are in this permitting
          11    process.
          12                         MS. HAASE:  Did you speak to
          13    Mr. Brogan, our sewage enforcement officer?
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  I spoke to
          15    Mr. Brogan probably about a month back.  I have not
          16    had a chance to reach out to him.  I'd like to
          17    speak to him and see if he's heard anything from
          18    Princeton Hydrology or even DEP or Arrowhead.  The
          19    last time I talked to him he said it's pretty much
          20    in the hands of DEP what they are going to allow
          21    Arrowhead to do.
          22                         MS. HAASE:  Are you proposing
          23    any testing at all of this site for on-lot if
          24    you're --
          25                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.  What





           1    they want to do is if they have to do some on-site
           2    testing to prove that an on-lot system doesn't
           3    work, they have to get this Act 537 moving along to
           4    tie into the existing sanitary line that runs down.
           5                         MR. McHALE:  Are you planning to
           6    do that testing before you move forward with your
           7    application?
           8                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  I'll find
           9    out.
          10                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  That's what I
          11    was going to ask.  Are you going to try to resolve
          12    the sewer issue before you move on with the
          13    conditional use?
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  I'll find
          15    out for you.
          16                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Phyllis, could
          17    you move downward a little bit?
          18                         One of the guiding principles,
          19    I'm not sure if you've seen this 155.79, for a
          20    special exception, speaks to potential congestion.
          21                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  This is a
          22    conditional use.
          23                         MS. HAASE:  It is, but in our
          24    ordinance it refers to the conditions of a special
          25    exception.





           1                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  It refers to
           2    potential congestion of vehicular traffic or
           3    creation of undue hazard.  I know that Arrowhead
           4    Drive coming -- and Lake Shore Drive, that's a very
           5    highly used inner roadway system right now and it
           6    is dangerous there.  I think there have been some
           7    problems.  And even with the curve, it's like an S
           8    curve right down from there on Lake Shore Drive, is
           9    a dangerous situation.  It's existed since the
          10    development has been there.  But I would be
          11    concerned that you will be bringing in additional
          12    traffic here and I was wondering what you were
          13    planning on doing to mitigate that.
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Right now
          15    my belief is it's not going to be open to the
          16    public except what's inside the community.  They
          17    are going to utilize the existing points of ingress
          18    and egress, this becoming a one way, Arrowhead
          19    Drive will be a one way, and coming out here will
          20    be a two way.  That peak moment of 250 people may
          21    happen once a year.  At most there may be 10 to 15
          22    persons utilizing the building everyday.  We've
          23    accommodated for employees at such time.  There has
          24    been talks about one employee there everyday, I
          25    think a security officer.  In the front of the





           1    building right here there's going to be an office.
           2    As far as opening it up to the outside community,
           3    there hasn't been talks about yet.  This will be
           4    solely for community purposes.
           5                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I understand
           6    that, but, I mean, if you build a nice facility
           7    there, it has a banquet accommodations, you could
           8    potentially be having weddings there, birthday
           9    parties, a lot of different events for the
          10    community.  I would anticipate that Arrowhead
          11    Property Owners Association would have such events
          12    for income production.  So I would be very
          13    concerned with traffic in this area.  Even if it's
          14    just the -- I understand it's just the inner
          15    traffic.  You're going to have people coming from
          16    within the development, coming over Lake Shore
          17    Drive into this area and I'm concerned about that
          18    for this.
          19                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Okay.
          20    We'll address those issues and speak to Arrowhead.
          21    What they'll do at those times, they will be
          22    directing traffic and whatnot to help mitigate the
          23    traffic flow and not produce so much congestion at
          24    the areas of the entrances.
          25                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Is there any





           1    thought to widening Lake Shore Drive?  I'm not sure
           2    how wide Lake Shore is.
           3                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  It's about
           4    19 feet.  And this is about 16 feet.  Actually,
           5    Arrowhead Drive is like 16 and Lake Shore Drive is
           6    about 19.  As far as I know, there hasn't been any
           7    talks about widening that.  Maybe it's something
           8    that can be presented to Arrowhead.  After this
           9    meeting, bring it up to them and say there should
          10    be thoughts about updating Lake Shore Drive to
          11    accommodate traffic flow, make it a little wider.
          12    I'll find that out.
          13                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Has this been
          14    announced in the public -- I mean within the
          15    development, has it been announced?
          16                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  I believe
          17    so.  I believe people do know that they are looking
          18    to do this project, yes.
          19                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I'm sure one of
          20    the things is that you have to protect the health
          21    and safety of the residence and you want to have
          22    the character of the neighborhood.  I mean, that
          23    building has been there a long time and it was
          24    dilapidated the last time I was there, which was a
          25    while ago.  So I think this is certainly going to





           1    be an improvement, so I don't think there will be
           2    any opposition, but I want to make sure that
           3    residents are also aware that the project is going
           4    forward.
           5                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
           6                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Are you
           7    anticipating complying with all the zoning
           8    ordinance provisions or are you going to be looking
           9    for any kind of variances?
          10                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  No.  Not at
          11    this time.
          12                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  You meet all the
          13    parking?
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We meet the
          15    parking right now, yes.
          16                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Is there any
          17    fencing or screening that you propose?
          18                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We are
          19    going -- that will be shown in our landscaping and
          20    light plan.  I believe there will be provisions for
          21    landscaping.  It's going to need some tree
          22    screening.
          23                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  When you met
          24    with the conversation district, was there any talks
          25    of BMPs such as rain gardens, drainage areas,





           1    infiltration areas along the parking areas, that
           2    type of thing?
           3                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We didn't
           4    talk about that.  Like I said before, this area up
           5    in here may act as a rain garden.  We've run a few
           6    more stormwater calculations to see what we can
           7    actually get to work.  And like what Bob had said,
           8    we are looking at having that, have a level
           9    spreader and just --
          10                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Did you look at
          11    any rain gardens within --
          12                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Right here?
          13                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Like in the
          14    parking area here, to try to get some infiltration?
          15                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We haven't
          16    looked at that yet.  They're probably some things
          17    that we'll be looking at.  We haven't finalized our
          18    stormwater system, so to speak.  We haven't
          19    finalized our stormwater calcs yet.  See what works
          20    before we ask for a potential waiver for the
          21    stormwater requirements.  The main topic of
          22    conversation at the Monroe Conservation was this
          23    whole NPDS permitting, because if the project went
          24    to an NPDS permit, it would be very difficult where
          25    it's at as far as that's concerned and it would be





           1    pretty difficult to meet -- abiding by the
           2    stormwater requirements.
           3                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  It certainly is
           4    a challenging site for drainage, that's for sure.
           5                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yeah, it
           6    really is.  I have walked there quite a few times
           7    and this is just wet.  I just walked around.
           8                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  The only other
           9    comment I would have at this time is I would like
          10    to see -- make sure that there is landscaping
          11    shown.  We need some buffering.  I would want to
          12    see some buffering for residential.
          13                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yeah, and
          14    there will be.  Like I said, this is just, you
          15    know, a pretty generic sketch plan.  And like I
          16    said, all those requirements to be met, will be a
          17    separate, a stand alone landscape lighting plan,
          18    showing the tree buffers and screening.
          19                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Bob, are buffers
          20    required with residential with this type of use?
          21                         MR. McHALE:  Around development
          22    amenities?
          23                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Yes.
          24                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  I think I
          25    read something in there if you're abutting a





           1    residential lot, which there already is an existing
           2    treeline.
           3                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  But I'm
           4    wondering if you need a buffer or screen.
           5                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Irregardless of
           6    the buffering requirements for the neighboring,
           7    there is actually a subsection under the
           8    conditional use for this indoor/outdoor commercial
           9    recreational facility.  Adequate fencing, screening
          10    or natural growth not less than 8 feet in height
          11    where required by the board of supervisors shall be
          12    constructed or planted around the perimeter of the
          13    parcel.
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Okay.
          15                         So we are looking -- it would be
          16    the front here then?
          17                         MR. McHALE:  Phyllis, was this
          18    going to be categorized as a development amenity
          19    under Section 155.101 or 155.102, indoor/outdoor
          20    commercial recreational uses or both?
          21                         MS. HAASE:  I believe we went
          22    under development amenity.
          23                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Correct.
          24                         MR. McHALE:  So it's not going
          25    to be used for commercial recreational use.  It's





           1    going to be just totally within the development.
           2                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  In the
           3    development, yeah.
           4                         MS. HAASE:  And that's something
           5    that you need to make certain with the Arrowhead
           6    Board, that this will be for members of the
           7    community.  And as I stated before, if it will be
           8    open to the public we need to view this a little
           9    differently.  So that's something you need to
          10    confirm with them.  We are going under the
          11    assumption that this is strictly for the private
          12    community.
          13                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
          14                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  So, Phyllis, my
          15    question to that would be, what if someone, a
          16    resident of a community, a daughter or son has a
          17    wedding there and there's people coming from
          18    outside the community to attend the wedding?
          19                         MS. HAASE:  I think that's going
          20    to occur.  You're going to have guests.  My feeling
          21    would be different -- just recently Arrowhead
          22    advertised I believe it was a concert.
          23                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  I don't
          24    know.
          25                         MS. HAASE:  They had a performer





           1    that people from outside the development could come
           2    in there.  And that's going to have to be viewed
           3    differently.  If it's a guest of a resident --
           4                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  So that's okay.
           5                         MS. HAASE:  Yes, because
           6    currently you can still use the amenities there if
           7    you're a guest of a homeowner.
           8                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I see what
           9    you're saying.  I can see the difference.
          10                         MR. McHALE:  In relationship to
          11    the buffers, 155.101 Subparagraph i, it does say a
          12    buffer strip not less than 20 feet in width shall
          13    be provided between any such use and any plotted
          14    lot of the subdivision.
          15                         MS. HAASE:  I believe, Mike, you
          16    did show that, correct?  We had discussed the 20
          17    foot --
          18                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes, we
          19    did.
          20                         MS. HAASE:  -- setback and you
          21    required the buffer.
          22                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And this is only
          23    going to be used for Arrowhead Lake residents?
          24                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes, as far
          25    as I'm concerned.





           1                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  So you're
           2    showing an infringement upon the 20 foot with the
           3    parking area.
           4                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  There will
           5    be no parking in here.  This is a throughway.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Okay.  So this
           7    throughway isn't considered part of the parking,
           8    that is correct, Bob?
           9                         MR. McHALE:  No.  It says
          10    between any such use.  So that would be any
          11    function or related function on the plans.  So you
          12    would need 20 feet from the property line.
          13                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  For the
          14    cartway right here?
          15                         MR. McHALE:  For anything,
          16    anything related to the amenity.  And it says in
          17    any plotted lot of the subdivision.  So if there is
          18    a right of way there, that's something we have to
          19    talk about later, Pat.  But if there is a plotted
          20    lot, like to the left there, Mike, where the
          21    cul-de-sac is, if they were on this side and
          22    adjoining this particular parcel, you will need
          23    that 20 feet.  So we'll need to look at that a
          24    little closer.
          25                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  That's





           1    fine.
           2                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Mike, I'm a
           3    little confused.  It appears that from this
           4    revision, that you're going to be using Arrowhead
           5    Drive as a private -- not private, but as an
           6    entrance into the new facility.  What happens to
           7    the property owners across the street?
           8                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  They'll be
           9    able to use that as well to access there.
          10                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Is that
          11    cul-de-sac improved?
          12                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Actually,
          13    if you go out there today, there is no such
          14    cul-de-sac out there.  It's just broken pave and
          15    gravel.  There is no definitive cul-de-sac.  It's
          16    atypical.  There's just a boundary.  They never
          17    really constructed a cul-de-sac.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Yeah, but it
          19    should be there, especially if you're going to
          20    propose this, because that property owner on the
          21    corner there needs to have access to his property.
          22                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  That's
          23    something that we'll have to address.
          24                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Bob, I don't
          25    know if that's right that they can show -- see how





           1    they are showing the entrance right in there?  I
           2    mean, you're taking away the access road.  You're
           3    talking away the road.
           4                         MS. HAASE:  I think you had
           5    mentioned too making that one way, is that correct,
           6    when you initially started, making that one way up?
           7                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.  I'm
           8    not even quite sure if there is driveways coming in
           9    off of Arrowhead Drive.
          10                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  There has to
          11    be.  There is a lake behind it.
          12                         MR. McHALE:  Do they front
          13    another road?
          14                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  No.  I take
          15    that back.  The lake is behind it.
          16                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  Obviously they
          17    have to get there.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  They may not be
          19    sold.
          20                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We'll have
          21    to look at that.
          22                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  But people need
          23    access.
          24                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  If they are
          25    improved lots, they have to have access.  You will





           1    look into that before the conditional use.
           2                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
           3                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  And the sanitary
           4    sewer.
           5                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I see two
           7    symbols that are kind of floating out in the middle
           8    of the right of way there.  Are those property
           9    lines or are you saying that the property lines
          10    aren't properly lined up, up to the left, those two
          11    points there?
          12                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We did not
          13    do the survey.  Brian Courtright performed the
          14    boundary survey, and this is his base plan that we
          15    are working off of.
          16                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Whatever that
          17    discrepancy is, you should make sure you tie it in.
          18                         It's identified as a found pin.
          19    See, iron pin found?  That's what that symbol is.
          20    So to me that would indicate that that's the guy's
          21    property line that was surveyed and your overlay
          22    map isn't lining up.
          23                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  On the
          24    existing conditions plan which is the one you have
          25    there, it's not -- they are not identified as iron





           1    pins found.  Either way we are going to have to
           2    address this, and see what they are going to do to
           3    resolve the boundary.  Like I said, we didn't
           4    perform the survey.  We got this information from
           5    the surveyor hired by Arrowhead Lake.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I'm sorry to
           7    disagree with you.  I'm looking at a map that you
           8    just handed me and that's what is shown.  This
           9    symbol is identified as an iron pin found.  That's
          10    that symbol.
          11                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yeah, and
          12    where it says iron pin found, he may not have
          13    found --
          14                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  That's a symbol.
          15                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  That's
          16    generic.
          17                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Okay.
          18                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Should be a
          19    difference on the plan between iron pin found
          20    and --
          21                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Yeah, I see.
          22    There is something wrong.  Just make sure you tie
          23    it in.
          24                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  We'll
          25    correspond with Brian.





           1                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  You haven't
           2    applied for a conditional use application?
           3                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Correct.
           4                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  What this is is
           5    a presubmission.  He's coming in looking for some
           6    kind of guidance from the commission and the zoning
           7    officer.
           8                         MS. HAASE:  The applicant needs
           9    to submit -- under item G is all the information
          10    that the applicant needs to submit.
          11                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  You're familiar
          12    with the zoning ordinance and what you need?
          13                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
          14                         MS. HAASE:  In essence, this
          15    meeting was to determine the nature and extent of
          16    the information to be supplied on the site
          17    development plan under 159.79.G.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  You've seen
          19    these, Mike, right?
          20                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.
          21                         MR. McHALE:  Item No. 6
          22    indicates any other information to be determined
          23    during the presubmission conference to be
          24    necessary.
          25                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I think we





           1    pointed out a couple things to you.
           2                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Yes.  Sure.
           3                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Any others?
           4                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  I agree.
           5                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  We made our
           6    comments.
           7                         MS. HAASE:  Mr. Chairman, you'd
           8    like all the items under G to be submitted on the
           9    plan?
          10                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Don't ask me.
          11    Ask the board.  But I would say yes, that we are
          12    going to need all that information.  Because this
          13    is an existing site, so we want to see, I would
          14    want to see everything that's going on in that
          15    area, especially given that survey point is off
          16    that roadway, the traffic issue within that area.
          17                         Where is the 100 year flood --
          18    Phyllis, could you go to the lake, please?  Did you
          19    identify the 100 year flood?
          20                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  It's on the
          21    existing conditions plan, I believe the 100 year
          22    flood is somewhere in here.  I'm not exactly sure
          23    what contour it is.  We've since gotten an updated
          24    survey plan from the surveyor that may not show all
          25    of the notes and everything like that applicable.





           1    I do know that it was identified.  Data was
           2    actually put on a USGS datum from a USGS disk found
           3    on the dam.  The elevation has been put on the same
           4    datum, so that way we can see how the building
           5    corresponds to the dam and all that information.
           6    That way, in the event of a flood, the building is
           7    not going to be under water or have water, which
           8    was the problem the first time.  The water
           9    inundated and ruined the lodge.
          10                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I don't see
          11    anything that I would ask not to --
          12                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  I would say
          13    that every item should be.
          14                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Yes.  So all the
          15    items under G.
          16                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  And that's
          17    Section 155 --
          18                         MS. HAASE:  Mike, just -- you
          19    can have mine.
          20                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Any other
          21    questions?
          22                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  It will be nice
          23    to see a new structure there.
          24                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  It's going
          25    to be nice.  I have seen a rendering of it.  It





           1    will be impressive.  It'll be a nice building.
           2                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  It'll be a nice
           3    improvement.
           4                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  It really
           5    will.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Thanks.
           7                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Thank you.
           8                         MS. HAASE:  If you'd like to
           9    contact me tomorrow, possibly I can arrange a
          10    meeting with Mr. Brogan and maybe Mr. McHale and
          11    myself.
          12                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  That's
          13    fine.  That's great.
          14                         MS. HAASE:  That's something
          15    that needs to be addressed.
          16                         MR. MICHAEL FENICK:  Great.  No
          17    problem.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Next item on our
          19    agenda is Keswick Pointe.
          20                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Hi.  I
          21    believe the township has received the revisions of
          22    the PRD plan for Phase I, basically, which is the
          23    front entranceway.  You may recall that we
          24    presented the information I believe to this body
          25    last month regarding our request for a waiver that





           1    was needed to meet the profiles in the ordinance.
           2    And we came up with the combination, ever thanks to
           3    Bob, of utilizing two vertical curves joined
           4    together to lessen the request for a waiver.  That
           5    was approved by both this body and the supervisors
           6    and now has been illustrated in the plans, which is
           7    before you, I believe, tonight.  Is that a proper
           8    articulation of what is before --
           9                         MR. McHALE:  Yes, sir.  You have
          10    that.
          11                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Right in
          12    here is the stretch of road, the front entranceway.
          13    The area basically coming in from Route 115 is out
          14    here and coming up the hill here we came across the
          15    encased electric line that was a little bit
          16    different than what was located in the plan that
          17    serviced the treatment plant.  And because it's a
          18    three-phase line, it's put in by PPL, it's encased
          19    in concrete all the way up that road.  So it would
          20    have been -- if we stayed with our original design,
          21    it would have meant that we would have been down to
          22    cover only an inch or two over that encased line.
          23    By creating a new profile of the road from 115 up
          24    to our entranceway, with two different vertical
          25    curves, we are able to mitigate that problem and





           1    still maintain proper cover.  I think it probably
           2    also, just by de facto, maintains a little bit
           3    better cover on top of the sewer line that crosses
           4    in that area.  I believe this is the sewer line
           5    right there.  So it may have even influenced that.
           6    So, but more the electric line right here was
           7    definitely the problem.  By this solution, two
           8    vertical curves, it was better than trying to do it
           9    all in one fast movement.  So we appreciate Bob's
          10    input on that.  Reilly has demonstrated it on this
          11    plan here and that also affected some of our
          12    culverting that has to be put back in here and the
          13    drainage had to be modified as well, all of which
          14    has been illustrated on this plan.  That's what's
          15    before you.  I don't think there is anything here
          16    we haven't discussed, but --
          17                         MR. McHALE:  Do you have the
          18    stormwater post construction?
          19                         Again, the same area.  There's
          20    just going to be some minor modification of storm
          21    sewer inlet and those kind of things.  Again, most
          22    of it is in that general vicinity.  We've already
          23    looked at this enlarged island that's at the
          24    entryway for the proposed signage and that again
          25    was before the planning commission and the board of





           1    supervisors.  So really these plans are depicting
           2    what's gone on for the last few months of
           3    interaction and discussion because the project is
           4    under construction and we didn't want to wait too
           5    long to get it before everyone in case there were
           6    comments or other input on it.
           7                         Could we go to the utilities
           8    plan, Sheet 37?
           9                         The new utilities plan depicts
          10    the conversion from what was a gravity end low
          11    pressure sanitary sewer collection system to an all
          12    low pressure system.  So the route for the entire
          13    pressure system is going to be the same pretty much
          14    as it was on the original approval, only those
          15    areas that were gravity have been converted to low
          16    pressure sewer system.  The only thing we are at
          17    right now, as far as the -- you know, the route is
          18    going to be the same.  Instead of tieing into an
          19    existing manhole here closer to the plan, there is
          20    an existing manhole over to the right near where
          21    the multi-purpose facilities are going to be.  And
          22    the force main will come off of Keswick Drive and
          23    drop down into that existing main at the same
          24    location that the -- I think it's a 6 inch low
          25    pressure sewer line that comes from New Ventures





           1    Park that ties into that same manhole.
           2                         At this point, the general route
           3    layout, everything is fine.  What we'll probably
           4    ask for on the Phase I drawing though is to show
           5    just the low pressure line that will be constructed
           6    here.  It's going to show up on the Phase III
           7    portion of it, but for Phase I to be approved, if
           8    you will, for these sheets, that should be shown
           9    and we'll get with their engineer to make sure
          10    those kind of things are depicted.  There will also
          11    be some items incidental, like valving, risers,
          12    manholes, some configurations that aren't quite
          13    ironed out yet, but we will be doing that here in
          14    the next few days and coordinating those items.
          15    Other than that --
          16                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Did Casey
          17    call you?  Because I asked him to speak to you
          18    about those final decisions, so he can depict it in
          19    the plan.  He said, well, I didn't put it in the
          20    plan because Bob hasn't told me if he agreed yet.
          21    I said, I think Bob's position is until you present
          22    it in plan form, there is nothing for him to
          23    review.  I said the two of you have to chat.  So I
          24    hope he called you.
          25                         MR. McHALE:  He submitted





           1    details that were very similar to the previous
           2    submission with some -- there were some
           3    modifications to them.  So I'm going to go through
           4    those and get back with Casey and get those things
           5    ironed out in the next few days.
           6                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Some of
           7    that we are anxious because we are trying to order
           8    components so we get the sewer in.  We are running
           9    out of daylight.
          10                         MR. McHALE:  We have the board
          11    of supervisors' work session on Monday.  The
          12    board's meeting is on the 12th, I believe.  So if
          13    the planning commission felt comfortable with, you
          14    know, the layout and the general schematic of what
          15    is shown on these, if you all felt comfortable with
          16    making a recommendation to the board, that's up to
          17    you all.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  There is no
          19    layout change in the driveway coming in.  We
          20    already made a recommendation.  So we have no
          21    problem with the sewer going in to gravity.  I
          22    think that was requested actually by the township
          23    to take a look at that, take a second look at that.
          24                         We are good.  Bob's good.  I'll
          25    entertain a motion to recommend to the board of





           1    supervisors the approval of the revisions to Phase
           2    I of the PRD for Keswick Pointe.
           3                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  I'll make that
           4    motion.
           5                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I have a motion.
           6    Do I have a second to that motion?
           7                         MS. RINEHIMER:  I'll second it.
           8                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Motion and
           9    seconded.  All those in favor please say aye.
          10                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  Aye.
          11                         MS. RINEHIMER:  Aye.
          12                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Aye.
          13                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Thank you.
          14                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  That was grinder
          15    pumps.
          16                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Your
          17    question?
          18                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Typically we are
          19    going to want some kind of document, you know,
          20    maintaining --
          21                         MR. McHALE:  Operations or
          22    maintenance agreement.
          23                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  O and M
          24    agreement.
          25                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Yes.





           1                         MR. McHALE:  We already talked
           2    about that.  That was in Reilly's last review
           3    letter I think back in July that you were going to
           4    pull all that together and there were some other
           5    items that came up that would be addressed in that
           6    document.
           7                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  The
           8    finalization of the system here, the next step is
           9    details.  We've already met with the company that
          10    we think is going to provide these.  We pretty much
          11    wrestled through the cost.  As a matter of fact, I
          12    had Peabody Barnes, I gave them the task, the
          13    company that will supply it from the local
          14    supplier, service guy --
          15                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Site specific.
          16                         MR. McHALE:  Pumping Solutions.
          17                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Well, one
          18    of the problems is one of the systems they have has
          19    this kind of fill rock, the lid, and maybe one wall
          20    in that rock looks fine, but certain places, like
          21    putting four of them together, these four rocks all
          22    look the same.  So I have asked them to come back.
          23    They didn't have it.  They are actually fabricating
          24    it at our request, a lid that's a flat profile lid
          25    for the same system that we are talking about, for





           1    the residential application.  I mean it's rock, it
           2    looks pretty genuine, but when you put three or
           3    four of them together you catch on in a hurry that
           4    it's not a rock.  So I didn't like that too much.
           5    So they are actually fabricating that.  They are
           6    close to finalizing a prototype for us to review.
           7    And we still have, mostly in the townhouse area,
           8    the ones we are going to use, they are a nice
           9    compact system, all coming together in a skid.  As
          10    a matter of fact, we are talking now about
          11    electronically monitoring all these.  We are
          12    talking about that option.
          13                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Great.
          14                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  We are
          15    pleased with the investigation.  So far we are
          16    pulling that together.  I have actually had them
          17    give us language that will be in their contract
          18    requiring them to warranty it for a year and then
          19    have a contract available to the customer,
          20    thereafter.  So that's already been worked out.  So
          21    putting together what you need is all there, all
          22    the pieces are there.  We just haven't pulled the
          23    trigger on that because right now they are
          24    interested in fabricating lids.  Once I give them
          25    the --  they may not be as interested, and other





           1    people are.  So we talked, you know.  But I'm
           2    feeling pretty good with this and the people that
           3    we interviewed so.
           4                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Thank you.
           5                         MR. CHARLES HANNIG:  Thank you.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Move on the Act
           7    167, Stormwater.
           8                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  As you know,
           9    this has been on the township's plate for quite
          10    sometime.  Last week we forwarded, the planning
          11    commission and the supervisors, both, the latest
          12    and greatest Act 167 Stormwater Ordinance along
          13    with the appendices.  I don't know if you've had a
          14    chance to review it.  The sustentative portion of
          15    the ordinance pretty much stayed the same.  There
          16    has been a couple small changes throughout the
          17    year.  Are there any questions or comments from the
          18    commission with respect to it?
          19                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  We made
          20    recommendation on this before.
          21                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  I'm good with
          22    it.
          23                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  We are good.
          24                         Bob?
          25                         MR. McHALE:  The vacant lot





           1    portion where it exists, that section of vacant
           2    lots in existing recorded subdivisions, it's
           3    already in the Brodhead McMichaels and Tobyhanna.
           4    And, again, I think we discussed this briefly about
           5    that we need to give the folks a tool to work from
           6    and that is that tool.  I think you all were aware
           7    of that, but we did put that in that copy.  We
           8    talked about that last meeting.
           9                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  That's one of
          10    the exhibits, isn't it, that shows them what
          11    they --
          12                         MR. McHALE:  Yes.
          13                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Yes, I looked at
          14    that.
          15                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  Just a
          16    reiteration of your previous motion to recommend
          17    approval.
          18                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I'll entertain a
          19    motion to recommend to the board of supervisors
          20    approval of the Act 167 Stormwater plan for the
          21    Brodhead McMichaels Watershed area.
          22                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  I'll make that
          23    motion.
          24                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  I have a motion.
          25    Second to the motion?





           1                         MS. RINEHIMER:  I'll second it.
           2                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Motion and
           3    second.  All those in favor please say aye.
           4                         MRS. LAMBERTON:  Aye.
           5                         MS. RINEHIMER:  Aye.
           6                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Aye.
           7                         Time waivers for the Wee-Wons.
           8    We did receive that.  We are okay until December.
           9                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  We did?
          10                         MS. HAASE:  I don't know the
          11    date.
          12                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  It was on our
          13    disk.
          14                         MR. ARMSTRONG:  She's going to
          15    be withdrawing the plans, so it doesn't necessarily
          16    matter, but.  That's fine.  Don't worry about it.
          17                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  But it was for
          18    December something.
          19                         Brick City.  Anything new?
          20                         MR. McHALE:  No, sir.  No
          21    update.
          22                         MR. SINCAVAGE:  Do we have
          23    anything else to come before the board?
          24                         If not we stand adjourned.
          25                         (Meeting concluded at 7:55 p.m.)
