  • Skippack Township Checklist
  • Skippack Township Application

The following items were not provided by Mr. Heleniak, but were part of the initial application (based on the township checklist):

  • Copy of the check in amount of $10,000.00 for Skippack Township Escrow
  • Traffic Impact Study (will be provided under separate cover by Traffic Consultant)
  • Title Report

  • A CD containing PDF version of Subdivision Plans and stormwater report (not included)

*While we did not receive physical copies, Mr. Heleniak did allow Dave Naples to take pictures of each page on his phone. As a result, any missing parts of the site plan are due to Mr. Naples either omitting to take a picture or taking a bad picture.

A Rundown

Well, they did it. Tonight at the Skippack Township Planning Commission meeting, the Commission voted to recommend approval of the conditional use permit requested by Audubon Land Development Corporation and Del Grippo Homes. This gives them the green light to move forward with the Mill Run development on the site of the Perkiomen Valley Airport, despite repeated pleas over a period of six months from nearly 500 residents that this not happen. Now I'm annoyed. No, scratch that ... I'm pissed . On a stratospheric, biblical level. Pissed to the point of wishing for each of the Commission members genital boils, COVID, leprosy, and a full IRS audit. The thing is, I'm not so much ticked off at the result -- although it does infuriate me to no end -- but to the complete and utter lack of respect for the residents, the casual dismissal of their concerns, and the use of various procedural stunts to try to derail us: The Board of Supervisors claimed that BoS meetings were not fora f...

We need as many people as possible to show up and voice their disapproval, and to make it clear that this is a political career-ending issue for anyone who supports the development.

Since each resident will be given a limited time to speak, we would like to coordinate what people will say so that we can maximize our impact; however, coordination is not a requirement. All we are asking is that people show up to voice their opposition. Below is some background on the project. ...

So here's what happened ...

 An update on the airport project. Brace yourself, it's a biggie. If you want to skip the tales of carnage from the meeting, you can skip to the action items at the end. Tuesday, February 22, there was a meeting of the planning commission at the Skippack Township building on Heckler Road. This meeting was very heavily attended ... as in, standing room only. The following people were in attendance: Chris Heleniak, Township Manager Tim Woodrow, Township Engineer Joe Zadlo, Township Planner Luke Dielsi, Planning Commission member Harry Greco, Planning Commission member Tim Landemesser, Planning Commission member Brad DeForest, Planning Commission member Gerald Rader, Planning Commission member Eric Fry, Attorney for the developer Traffic engineer contracted by the developer (Sandy someone, I don't remember her last name) Site engineer from Bursich Associates (I didn't catch his name) Two reps from Del Grippo Homes (I assume del Grippo Senior and del Grippo Junior) The purpose ...
