Township Approves Traffic Signal Maintenance Agreement with PennDOT; Discusses Future Signal Needs
Council approved Resolution 58-2026, which formalizes a traffic signal maintenance agreement with PennDOT. This agreement is necessary because PennDOT requires municipalities to maintain traffic signals located within their boundaries. The resolution allows the township to enter into this standard agreement, which was found to be outdated and required updating. While this agreement concerns maintenance of existing signals, council also discussed the ongoing need to investigate potential new traffic signals at problematic intersections, such as P Valley Road and the intersection of 412 and Pulk Road, with suggestions to include traffic studies and explore inter-municipal cooperation.
Council Supports Variance Application for One Old Philadelphia Pike Development with Conditions
The Lower Saucon Township Council discussed and subsequently passed a motion to authorize the solicitor to write a letter of support to the zoning hearing board for the One More Still City variance application. This support is conditioned on the applicant's representations regarding the preservation of historic features, including a historical marker and kiosk with public access, as well as a conservation easement or deed restriction for the riparian buffer and the area along Route 378. The application involves multiple variances for a development project located at One Old Philadelphia Pike.

This authorization is the next step in moving the expansion project forward.
