Coolidge Commons

About this project

Coolidge Commons, LP has submitted a preliminary plan to combine four lots into one 16.31-acre lot off Wilson Street, most of it in Upper Pottsgrove Township and a portion in Pottstown Borough. The Borough portion would add a new sewer line, a pump station with its own vehicular access, common open space, and a 20-foot utility easement on borough-owned land at Wilson Street and Farmington Avenue. Some of the partly wooded land would be cleared, along with two street trees on Wilson Street.

County planning commission: Supports, with comments

Issues raised: No sidewalk or verge proposed along Wilson Street, Borough portion not consistent with Town Residential future land use, Single access point off Wilson Street; secondary road connection to Coolidge Street suggested, Township SALDO requires two roads for 25+ lot subdivisions, Coolidge Street needs improvement to handle added traffic, Pedestrian access may not align with regional plan
