March 24^th Board of Supervisors (BOS):

April 7^th Board of Supervisors:

• The BOS is holding an extra public meeting for a presentation by BET about their proposed redevelopment of the Spring House Corporate Center on Norristown Road by Route 309. The same developer proposed apartments and retail on this property last year.  They have revised their plan and are again seeking an ordinance amendment to permit apartments and retail there.  They also have submitted a conditional use application that only can be approved if the ordinance is amended but provides more information about their proposed development that may help to answer community questions that were raised during previous public meetings.
