About this project
A developer plans a two-story, 31-foot commercial building with four storefronts of about 2,275 square feet each on a vacant 0.59-acre corner lot at East Broad Street and School Lane in Souderton. The project also adds a 29-space parking lot, a 900 square foot outdoor patio, street trees, a rain garden, and an underground stormwater basin, and it closes the existing driveway onto Broad Street. The county generally supports the plan but asks for changes to the patio, sidewalk separation, and transit stop.
County planning commission: Supports, with comments
Issues raised: Patio open space is 900 sq ft vs. 1,285 sq ft required, Patio design, access points, and fencing unclear, Four-foot landscaped sidewalk separation from Broad Street missing, Transit shelter waiver needed beyond bench and ADA pad, Signage wall requires design approval, Area between patio and sidewalk needs a defined use
