Frederick Planning Commission's feedback on the development of the Edgehill site.
The most recent submitted plans of
the Edgehill Land Development were displayed and discussion ensued between Mr. Courtney, Mr. Weingarten, Planning
Commission Board and Mr. Urlich, Township Engineer on areas of issues and concerns at the time of plan submission and
the current issues and concerns with the site development.
To familiarize themselves with the

site. The Planning Commission provided this information.
