The Baker Road Subdivision would divide a 48.6-acre tract in West Manchester Township into 65 lots for single-family homes. It would also have 2 lots for a homeowners association, which would own and maintain shared features. The plan includes new streets and stormwater facilities. The homes would connect to public water and public sewer.
The site is on the south side of Baker Road, near Sunset Lane, in the township's R-1 Residential zone. Township notices for Planning Commission meetings list the plan in May 2025 and again in December 2025. No news coverage, opposition or builder announcement was found. The notices do not name the developer or say who will build or buy the homes.
What it could mean nearby
- Adds up to 65 households, so more cars on Baker Road and nearby streets. No traffic study was found.
- Public water and sewer would serve the homes, according to the township notices.
- Stormwater facilities are part of the plan, which is meant to manage runoff from the new streets and roofs.
- Land now in open use would become a residential neighborhood. The records do not describe what is there today.
