Proposed Animal Hospital - Connect Vet
1008 Upper State Road, Montgomery, PA · 10,000 sq ft non-residential, commercial · 1.67 acres
About this project
A veterinary animal hospital is proposed at 1008 Upper State Road near Horsham Road in Montgomery Township. The corner property would be combined into a single 1.67-acre lot, with a 10,000-square-foot hospital and a 40-space parking lot reached from Upper State Road. The existing house on the site would be torn down to make way for it.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: parking bollard waiver; county suggests wheel stops instead, Armstrong red maple is too columnar to provide good parking-lot shade
