the West Goshen Township Administration Building.
Following the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag, the floor was opened for public comment. There being none, the Chairman appointed Dr. White a

Initial Plan Review:
West Goshen Sewer Authority - Garage
Location: 848 South Concord Road
The proposed plan depicts a 4,242 square foot garage for the West Goshen Sewer Authority. Monica Drewniany asked whether a rain garden would
be part of the new construction. Mr. Craig stated that a rain garden is planned to comply with DEP regulations for stormwater.
EO Bull Center – West Chester University
Location: 2 East Rosedale Avenue
Represented by: Dee DiGiordano, West Chester
University – Facilities
A 9,135 square foot addition to the E.O. Bull Center for West Chester University is proposed. The expansion is to create a consolidated
performing arts center. The existing building is a non-conforming building, being a corner property with two front yards. This plan was presented to the West Goshen Zoning Hearing Board and
granted variance relief to complete the plan as proposed.
Roslyn Swim Club
Location: 838 Spruce Avenue
An existing 1,200 square foot roofed deck will be converted into a locker room/bath house facility. A new 1,200 square foot roofed deck will
be constructed with sidewalk access to the new facilities. Rick Craig stated that the plan poses a minimal disturbance to the impervious coverage, with parking being an ongoing problem.
Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment Review:
The proposed ordinance will amend Section 84-57.03 concerning wireless communication facilities,
and will allow the co-location of commercial communications antenna on existing commercial communications antenna support structures by right. Monica Drewniany pointed out that the draft ordinance
cited Section 84-57.03.D, which should be Section 84-57.03.B. A motion was made by Robert Holland and seconded by Sal Triolo that the ordinance be recommended for approval as corrected. Motion
carried unanimously, 8:0.
Committee Reports:
There were no reports presented.
Miscellaneous Business:
Dr. White announced that the interview process to fill the vacant Planning Commission seats will begin soon, and
that the Supervisors would like input from the Planning Commission on the new members. It was suggested that the Chairman appoint several members to take part in the interviews.
There being no further business, on motion by Robert Holland and seconded by Carrie Martin the meeting was adjourned at 8:20 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Diane E. Clayton
Recording Secretary
