The full picture AI research · Nov 1, 2026
A land development plan has been filed with York County for a 37,400-square-foot accessory poultry barn on about 119 acres of farmland in Shrewsbury Township. "Accessory" means the barn supports the farming already happening on the property rather than being a separate business use. For scale, 37,400 square feet is roughly the size of seven basketball courts.
The county record lists Team Ag Inc. on the filing. The record does not say how many birds the barn would hold or who would operate it. It also does not say what is on the land today, though the land is described as farmland.
No news coverage, meeting agendas, or township decisions about this specific project were found online. The explanation here rests on the county record alone.
What it could mean nearby
- The barn is on a 119-acre farm tract, so most of the land would stay open farmland.
- Traffic, odor, manure handling and water use are common questions for poultry barns. The records found do not address them for this site.
