We, the residents of Millcreek Township, are opposed to a recent supervisor decision to rezone the property located at the south side of Golf Club Road, west of Interstate 79, consisting of approximately 24 acres. This decision to rezone the property from “Single Family/ Rural” to “Low Density Multifamily” was voted on and approved by the supervisors on Tuesday, May 13, 2014. This was done against the recommendation of the Millcreek Planning Commission who voted on March 20, 2014 not to rezone the property because the zoning change would not be consistent with the Millcreek Township Future Land Use Plan. In the Comprehensive plan all land in this area is to be used for parks and recreation or single family dwellings.

The supervisors ignored the Planning Commission to push their own agenda but we are not going anywhere. I am currently digging through the meeting minutes to expose exactly why they chose to betray our residents on this zoning issue.

Ridiculous decision. We bought here because of the rural zoning. Why bother having planning commissions if the supervisors just ignore them to push their own agenda?
The zoning board turned it down two times due to resident complaint and watershed runoff . The township engineer said that there is no capacity for sanity or storm sewer in that area The supervisors had made a " done deal" in exchange for land for a driving range for the golf course

traffic on golf club road is already bad enough without adding a bunch of apartments. they need to listen to the planning commission instead of just doing whatever they want.
