[The planning commission heard a presentation by Toll Bros representative at its Feb. 18, 2020, meeting. Listen to an audio recording of that presentation here.]
The property, which is zoned Conservation Management (CM), borders Durham Road to the east, Twinning Bridge Road to the north, Devonshire Meadows to the west and the Newtown Township Municipal Complex to the south.
In October, Toll had amended its application, as well as downsized the number of proposed homes for the property. A new plan was submitted to the township which now calls for 45 single-family luxury homes to be built on the parcel.
Under the new application, two access roads would instead be located on Twinning Bridge Road.
The downsized plan which had originally called for an on-site wastewater treatment facility has been abandoned. The development would instead be connected to the township’s public sewer line.
[A hearing on this application is scheduled for the February 26, 2020, Newtown Board of Supervisors meeting, which will be held beginning at 7 PM at 100 Municipal Drive, Newtown.}
The "amended" new plan can be viewed at the Township Building.
