This is my personal summary of the 6 February 2024 #NewtownPA Planning Commission Meeting. This is NOT a complete nor is it an official summary.

 

The Agenda included the following:

• BET Parking Core Apartment Building – Revised JMZO Amendment (see the sketch plan above)

 

Amending Signage Ordinance

I informed the Commission that I attended the 1 February 2024 JZC meeting where I initiated an open discussion on the Sign Provisions of the JMZO and I recommended that the PC be involved in recommending changes to problematic sections such as those that refer to neon signs. The PC does not draft amendments to the JMZO. Therefore, the next step would be for the Board of Supervisors to discuss this and authorize the Solicitor to draft an amendment hopefully after discussions with Board members and the public.
