Buckingham Township residents recently packed a planning commission meeting to speak out against a proposed warehouse plan. Over 150 people attended the meeting to oppose an application submitted by J.G. Petrucci Company proposing the redevelopment of a 58-acre property on Cold Spring Creamery Road. The developer's representatives went over the site plans, which include a 150,000-square-foot warehouse with 30 truck bays, two parking areas, an access drive for trucks at Stony Lane and another driveway for employees off Progress Meadow Drive. Residents’ comments focused on traffic and safety, with many concerned about large numbers of tractor trailers in the largely rural community. Township engineer Daniel Gray estimated that 90 trucks a day would access the property. The planning commission tabled the application. The next planning commission meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, March 6, at 7:30 p.m. Watch the Buckingham Township website for the agenda. The initial review period for the warehouse application expires April 2.
