Council President Panus said if you are standing there and the post office is on your right, you have the hair salon, an insurance company, then Brent L. Miller, they remain. Council President Panus told the residents they are really going to have to bone up on the really dull procedural rules and regulations with this to make your point or to say to them you need to look at this or whatever because that’s where they’re going to spend most of their time on what is allowed and what is not. Councilperson Bucher said the two things are getting in and out, traffic and the trucks. If you really want to focus on something they’re going to listen to look at those areas. Resident asked just for clarification purposes the necessity to go to the LCPC is because traffic is involved. Is that correct? This gentleman said he built a building in Manheim Township and didn’t have to go to the LCPC. Council Vice-President Wolf said Manheim Township has their own sub-division and land development program. Todd Weis said many, many municipalities in Lancaster County use the LCPC to approve plans and that’s because they don’t have their own big staff’s to make those kinds of decisions. Mr. Weis said he wants everybody to remember about how important it is to contact these companies and to really let them know what 5,500 people in this borough believe. Resident asked if PennDOT would be involved since one of the buildings was facing Rt 72. Councilperson Bucher said that’s some of the recommendations that John Schick is making to the county. Council President Panus said if they go to the PC meeting there will be plans to look at. Manager Hemperly said the plans are also at the borough office. Council Vice-President Wolf said it was more of an informational meeting. One resident, commenting that as council being the borough representatives, how can they help, already established they can’t use the website, what can they do for them? Councilperson Bucher said at this point they are going to work with the PC on the recommendation list. The resident commented that whatever they say council is just going to pass on it. Councilperson Bucher said unfortunately, because it’s already an existing commercial space it doesn’t come to council. Council Vice-President Wolf said council can refer comments to the PC and PC can refer comments to LCPC. Council President Panus said fortunately they have time; they have two meetings they can go to, two places they can go and make their case. Todd Weis said for those who can’t make the LCPC meeting, he will make sure that on the information stuff that he is putting together there will be the names and addresses of people on the LCPC to send letters to because if they don’t do this it’s not going to get done. Council President Panus said the community board they are talking about is right outside the borough office when you go up the ramp. Councilperson Bucher said after the meeting he would give them his contact information and when they create their facebook page, he will post on the East Pete Day facebook page about their facebook page once it’s created. The resident asked if the borough would accept a link to put on the borough website. Council said yes. Resident asked what day of the week did they do traffic study. Councilperson Bucher said It could actually work to their benefit by picking a Roots afternoon because the overall impact won’t look as good which is why John Schick is recommending them to go through PennDOT’s formula to do this is suppose to correct that. Someone asked if the traffic study would be done on both Rt 72 and Miller Rd because that would affect her children who play in the front yard. Councilperson Bucher said if their recommendations go through it would cover both entrances. Page 5812 April 2, 2013 Resident voiced concern that the delivery truck may get there late and spend the night with the truck running. Council President Panus said they should pay attention to what Mr. Schick targets because that’s probably going to be your strongest argument because obviously, he’s got the knowledge. Council Vice-President Wolf said there are really good, qualified people on the PC, two professional engineers, two people in the construction industry, two people who work for PPL. A lot of qualified people who know what kind of questions to ask. Resident asked if the borough could change any rules to stop this. Councilperson Bucher said not now, you can’t change the rules once the game has started. That would never hold up in court and would waste everyone’s tax money. Doug Nolt made a comment that each month there may be 5,6 people at the most show up at the meetings, month after month, year after year. It’s your community, your government, you elect these people. See what they have to say at the beginning not later after it’s done. Bucher said we had meetings for 18 months on the new zoning ordinance. Nolt asked them al where they were when these discussions were being made. Not one of you were there. With no other business to come before council meeting adjourned 8:10 P.M.

Manager Hemperly gave council a copy of the vacant property list. Public Works Superintendent's Report – See attached report. Zoning Officer Report – May report attached. Council President Panus noted that the Village Commons project will be heard at the Planning Commission meeting on June 20. Councilman Bucher said that new plans submitted by the developer now have two 7,500 square-feet buildings. He called the plan "a farce." "They are pretending that they are going to build two buildings to make the town happy," he added. He said new plans outline two buildings for small-business stores that are "built-to-suit." He said once tenants leave, they will "wipe the walls out and build two box stores. They're going about this in a backhanded way to make sure they don't have to do any traffic studies so we're going to end up with tractor trailers in there". Bucher said he recently spoke to a store owner that told him that they were told by the property owner the lease price in the new buildings would be $18 to $20 per square-foot. He said about half of the current stores would probably not be able to afford that rate. "If we don't get on this right now, they're going to walk all over us and they're about to do it," he said. "Everybody stay on top of this because we're going to end up with something horrendous down there." Council President Panus encouraged residents to attend a borough planning commission meeting June 20 at 7 p.m. where developers will present their plan. Panus said plans for the proposed site are available at the borough office.

July 2, 2013 Council President Panus announced that being under a new edict that we have to clean our streets twice a month, we were only cleaning them twice a year, and it’s mandated so we were very lucky we were able to buy a used sweeper from East Hempfield. Will probably start the street cleaning in another month.

Also said they had concern about the neighbor’s two little boys running around in filth and the inside of the house looks like the show hoarders. Resident said it just isn’t fair to those neighbors who work so hard and spend so much money keeping their properties nice and then have to look at his.

Attendees – See attached attendance list. Bill Payment Review. Visit From: Comments from Citizens: Several residents had complaints concerning the condition of a neighboring property on Jeanette Drive. Council President Panus explained the situation as far as fines through the DJ’s office, etc. The borough has limitations and restrictions as to what we can do but we will look into it. Mayor's Report: Police report for July, received 113 complaints in the borough, 26 criminal investigations with 5 misdemeanors/felony arrests. 84 calls for service, three vehicle accident investigations with no fatalities and no injuries and 50 traffic citations. Year to date as to the end of July, 650 complaints within the borough 148 criminal investigations, 26 misdemeanors/felony arrests, 28 summary arrests, 460 calls for service, 42 vehicle accident investigations with no fatalities and 7 injuries. YTD have written 330 traffic citations. Council President Panus said she spoke to the crossing guard today, across from the old school on Lemon St. and if you are traveling north on Lemon with the old school on the left, there is a lane to go left into the school, when you are traveling south they are now making the traffic one lane and they have the little pedestrian crossing sign that sits on what I call a “no man’s island”. The crossing guard said he has people that do not move over to the right lane and secondly if they don’t, in that middle lane which you assume to use if you want to go left on Linden, it doesn’t look like a turning lane, it is not a turning lane. People are confused. Can something be done about it? Herb should look into it. Download 166,5 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham:
