County records show a proposal to build 65 new homes on about 86 acres in Newberry Township, York County. The filing calls it The Woods Extended. The records describe a mix of single-family and multi-family homes, though the project type is listed as single-family.
The name suggests an extension of The Woods, an existing hillside home community in the Etters area of Newberry Township. A builder's page describes that community as single-family homes on lots of roughly a quarter to a half acre. That page does not mention any extension or phase, and no source was found that ties it directly to this filing. The engineering firm on the filing is Alpha Consulting Engineers, Inc.
No news coverage, meeting minutes, hearing notices or opposition were found for this proposal. The land's current use is not stated in the records.
