Learn Why This Project Doesn't Meet Zoning!
We presented to the Buckingham Township Planning Commission our case that the proposed truck terminal project should not be approved. The plans submitted apply under a G3 end use under Buckingham's zoning ordinance when they should have been submitted under a G6 Truck Terminal end use which is not allowed on the DiGirolamo Tract.
What We Know
Here is a list of important things that we know...
Lots of Trucks
The traffic study states that they expect 90 tractor trailer trips per day and they have no way of controlling the direction of inbound truck traffic.
There's a Signed Contract
We know that JG Petrucci Co. has a signed contract in place to purchase the land only with APPROVED plans.
18 Requested Waivers
There have been 18 waivers requested from the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance on the initial submission.
The Infrastructure Cannot Support This
The current infrastructure of the surrounding roads cannot support a project of this size. The surrounding roads are approximately 21-23 feet wide and about 10 feet too narrow according to Township Ordinances.
This Is Back For Round 2
This project was on the table when they felt few people were paying attention in May 2023. After discovering this project and making residents aware, the public outrage was huge and with an election looming, this project was withdrawn and is now back only 1 month after an election.
