About this project
A three-home subdivision is planned on the 2.25-acre property at 21 Sandringham Road in Bala Cynwyd, within Lower Merion Township. The homes would sit on lots reached by a private street, and the revised plans move the stormwater system off steep slopes and reserve space along the street for a future sidewalk.
Issues raised: stormwater system placed in steep slopes, private street cartway width below 27 feet, future sidewalk easement and grading on Lots 2 and 3, driveway grades in right-of-way, tree protection and driplines, NPDES permit needed from the conservation district

- Approvals needed
- variance of Section 155-7.4B(3) for slope disturbance (addressed by revising plans), waiver of Section 135-4.9B to avoid widening the private street to 27 feet
