MEMORANDUM

DATE: February 19, 2021 West Whiteland TO: Board of Supervisors FROM: Justin Smiley, AICP Township Planner/Historical Commission Liaison

SUBJECT: Amending the Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands for the Arrandale Barn

Motion: To approve the amendment for Section 3.2(b) of the Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands.

Arrandale Associates proposes amending the Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands to permit the demolition of certain portions of the Arrandale Barn in a manner that retains the barn’s historic features, and to make other amendments to establish the treatment, maintenance, and ownership of the barn until it is renovated.

The Arrandale Farm complex (est. 1810) is located at 600 W. Lincoln Hwy. in the Oaklands Corporate Center. In 1995, due to the historic nature of the Arrandale Farm complex, the structures were included in a condominium agreement between the owners of Oaklands Corporate Center and the Township, with the intention of preserving the farm’s core structures during the development of the corporate center. The condominium agreement included the Arrandale Manor House, Stone & Frame Tenant House, and the Arrandale Barn. The Arrandale farm complex served as the headquarters for Arrandale Associates, developers of the Oaklands Corporate Center, until recently. Through the years the condominium agreement has been amended to convey changes in ownership and maintenance of the historic structures.

Both the manor house (site 120) and tenant house (Site 122) are listed on the Township’s Historic Survey and have been maintained and preserved rather well over the last 30 years under Arrandale Associates ownership as directed by the condominium agreement. However, the barn, which is not currently listed on the Township’s Historic Survey has deteriorated during that same timeframe. Over the past several years, ownership has used the barn as a storage building for their business and has maintained and stabilized some of the barn’s structural deficiencies – per the Section 3.2(b) - but maintains that fully rehabilitating the larger elements of the barn is cost prohibitive. Arrandale Associates contacted the Township in 2018 to request approval for the demolition of the Arrandale Barn because of its poor condition, safety concerns with its proximity to Collegium Charter School and the difficulty it created for them to sell the associated Manor House.

Since the initial demolition request, Arrandale Associates has allowed Township Staff, Historical Commission Members and the Township’s historical consultant to access the barn and observe both the interior and exterior conditions. The Arrandale barn is quite large, with several distinctive additions and features making its preservation more challenging. This coordination between the Township and ownership has assisted both parties to develop a plan for the barn’s proposed reuse that retains the most significant portions, including the main original barn section and barnyard walls. The amendment to the condominium agreement is the first step to further detail the rehabilitation of certain portions of the barn that will assist in the preservation of the structure and the entire farm complex.

The Township Historical Commission reviewed the amendment at their meeting of January 11, 2021. Following discussion, the Commission unanimously passed a motion declaring their support of the amendment with minor edits to reference exhibits to the amendment and recommending Board approval.

The draft amended declaration is included in the meeting packet. Staff supports Board action on the Motion as stated above and can provide a complete copy of the original Declaration and supporting documentation at your request.

AMENDMENT TO DECLARATION OF CONDOMINIUM OF ARRANDALE AT OAKLANDS

THIS AMENDMENT TO DECLARATION OF CONDOMINIUM ("Amendment") is made this ___ day of January, 2021 ("Effective Date"), by ARRANDALE ASSOCIATES, a Pennsylvania limited partnership ("Declarant") with the consent of RHA ASSOCIATES, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“RHA”), PRC-PRECISE REAL ESTATE COMPANY, L.P., a Pennsylvania limited partnership (“PRC”), and joinder of WEST WHITELAND TOWNSHIP, a Pennsylvania township of the second class (“Township”).

BACKGROUND

A. On January 13, 1995, Declarant recorded the Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands in the Office of the Chester County Recorder of Deeds at Record Book 3852, Page 1060, as amended by Amendment to Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands recorded in the Office of the Chester County Recorder of Deeds at Record Book 3868, Page 580 on March 6, 1995, as amended by Amendment to Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands Condominium recorded in the Office of the Chester County Recorder of Deeds at Record Book 4096, Page 63 on October 15, 1996 (collectively, the "Declaration"), by which the "Property" (as such terms is defined in the Declaration) was submitted to the terms of the Pennsylvania Uniform Condominium Act, 68 Pa.C.S.A. § 3101, et seq. ("Act"), and to the covenants, restrictions and easements set forth in the Declaration.

B. The Condominium initially consisted of two (2) Units, identified as Unit 1 and Unit 2 as identified on the Plats and Plans, both of which Units were initially owned by the Declarant.

C. By Deed dated January 4, 1995 and recorded in the Office of the Chester County Recorder of Deeds at Record Book 3852, Page 1122 on January 13, 1995, the Declarant conveyed Unit 2, together with a proportionate undivided interest in the Common Elements (as defined in the Declaration) of 50%, to RHA, following which conveyance, Declarant remained as the owner of Unit 1 and RHA Associates, L.L.C. became the owner of Unit 2.

D. By Amendment to Declaration of Condominium of Arrandale at Oaklands Condominium recorded in the Office of the Chester County Recorder of Deeds at Record Book 4096, Page 63 on October 15, 1996, Declarant exercised certain Special Declarant Rights reserved in Article XIII of the Declaration by converting certain Convertible Real Estate and adding certain Additional Real Estate to the Condominium to create Unit 3 containing approximately 6.337 acres, more or less, and reallocating each Unit’s Percentage Interest and votes in the Association, such that each Unit was allocated 33 1/3 Percentage Interest and 33 1/3 votes in the Association.

E. By Deed dated June 28, 2013 and recorded in the Office of the Chester County Recorder of Deeds at Record Book 8755, Page 463 on July 1, 2013, 100 Arrandale Associates L.P. conveyed Unit 3 to PRC.

F. Section 3.2 of the Declaration provides certain covenants benefitting the Township and enforceable by the Township which covenants run with the land, including, inter alia, Sections 3.2(a) and 3.2(b) of the Declaration.

G. Section 3.2(a) of the Declaration provides that the exterior of the existing two-story manor house located on Unit 1, shown as “two-story frame office building” on the Plats and Plans, shall be preserved and maintained by the Owner of Unit 1 in a manner consistent with the Secretary of the Department of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings, with particular emphasis on the northern and western facades thereof.

H. Section 3.2(b) of the Declaration provides that the Owner of Unit 1 shall (i) stabilize and maintain the existing principal barn and existing stone wall located on Unit 1, and shown on the Plats and Plans as “two story stone barn and eight-foot wall”, in a manner consistent with the “Standards and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings”, with particular emphasis on the preservation and maintenance of the northern and eastern facades thereof, and (ii) exercise best efforts, in good faith, to find a suitable adaptive use and user for the barn.

I. Section 3.2(g) of the Declaration provides that the restrictive covenants contained in Section 3.2, including Section 3.2(b) referenced herein, are enforceable by the Township in the same manner as zoning regulations and may not be released, terminated, discharged or modified except by writing containing the express joinder of the Township, acting by and through its governing body.

J. Declarant desires, and the Township agrees, as evidenced by Township’s joinder to this Amendment, to amend the Declaration to permit demolition of certain portions of the barn in a manner that retains the barn’s historic and stable features, and to make such other amendments to the Declaration as are provided herein, upon the terms and conditions provided herein.

K. Section 5.1 of the Declaration provides that any amendments to the Declaration, subject to any exceptions provided in § 3219 of the Act, shall require the consent of Unit Owners entitled to cast at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the votes in the Association.

L. In accordance with the provisions of § 3219 of the Act, Section 3.2(g) of the Declaration, and Section 5.1 of the Declaration, Declarant, RHA and PRC, with joinder by the

1076079.1 2 Township, unanimously desire to amend the Declaration as provided herein for the purposes delineated herein.

NOW THEREFORE, Declarant, with the joinder and consent of RHA, PRC and the Township, intending to be legally bound, hereby amends the Declaration as follows:

1. The foregoing Background Paragraphs are incorporated herein by this reference as if fully set forth herein. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Declaration.

2. Section 3.2(b) of the Declaration is hereby amended to add the following language after the last sentence of the paragraph:

“Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to satisfaction of the conditions herein contained, the Owner of Unit No. 1 may demolish certain structural aspects of the barn in a manner that allows for construction of a new building within the existing barn envelope while retaining the barn’s historic and stable features, as more specifically described in the next sentence and within Exhibit “A” and as depicted on Exhibit “B”, each of which are attached hereto and incorporated herein. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Owner of Unit No. 1 shall retain as much of the existing exterior stone east gable end wall and adjacent east section of the north stone wall as is reasonably practicable. The Owner of Unit No. 1 may demolish the existing timber floor, the roof framing, the west wall and such other portions of the barn for which preservation is not reasonably practicable (other than the barn’s historic and stable features to be retained) to allow for construction of a new structure within the footprint of the remaining existing barn shell, as more specifically described below and in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein. Additionally, the Owner of Unit No. 1 may demolish and/or remove the left front (east) out-shed flanking the barn. The Owner of Unit No. 1 may construct a new building within the existing barn footprint utilizing modern construction methods and materials compatible with the historic materials of the barn as reasonably determined by the Township. The demolition of any portion(s) of the barn requires a demolition permit from the Township, and the Owner of Unit No. 1 shall secure such demolition permit from the Township. The Township agrees that the Township will not unreasonably withhold its approval of such demolition permit to allow for use of the existing barn footprint as described above. Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Declaration to the contrary, including without limitation Section 8.1 hereof, in the event of damage, destruction, collapse or crumbling of the barn resulting from natural conditions or other hazard prior to commencement of the new construction within the existing footprint, the Owner of Unit No. 1 shall have no obligation to rebuild, reconstruct or restore the barn to its prior condition. In such circumstance, the sole obligation of the Owner of Unit No. 1 shall be to salvage the northeast stone wall of the barn to the greatest

1076079.1 3 extent reasonably practicable and secure the ruins of the remainder of the collapsed barn to allow for construction of a new structure within the footprint of the remaining existing barn shell as referenced in Exhibit A to the extent feasible.”

3. Except as expressly modified hereby, the terms and conditions of the Declaration shall remain in full force and effect and are unchanged hereby. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts which, in aggregate, shall constitute one original.

MEMORANDUM

DATE: February 19, 2021 West Whiteland TO: Board of Supervisors FROM: John R. Weller, AICP Director of Planning and Zoning

SUBJECT: 4 Tabas Lane Preliminary land development plan

APPLICANT: RAJ Real Estate, LLC 81 Margil Farm Dr. Downingtown, PA 19335

SITE ADDRESS: 4 Tabas La. Exton, PA 19341

TAX PARCEL: 41-5-175

ZONING: TC, Town Center

DESCRIPTION: Construction of a 1-story, 13,297 sq.ft. storage building on a 3-acre lot with an existing retail commercial building, which is to remain.

EXPIRES: February 24, 2021

Motion: To approve the land development plan entitled “RAJ Real Estate, LLC / 4 Tabas Lane” as depicted on the 12-sheet plan set prepared by Vastardis Consulting Engineers, LLC dated July 2, 2020 and most recently revised November 19, 2020 (“Plan”) subject to the 17 waivers and conditions listed below:

1. The Plan is approved as a final plan pursuant to §281-10.H of the West Whiteland Township Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (“S/LDO”). 2. Waiver of §270-20.A, -20.C, and -20.D of the Stormwater Management Ordinance from various infiltration requirements, pursuant to comment #1 of the Spotts, Stevens and McCoy (“SSM”) review dated December 18, 2020. 3. Waiver of §281-31 of the S/LDO such that sidewalks need not be provided; however, the Applicant shall make a donation to the Township sidewalk fund of $4,770.00, which is equivalent to the construction cost of the sidewalks that could be required1 pursuant to this section. Said donation shall be paid in full at or before such time that application is made for the first Building Permit pursuant to this project.

1 SSM advises that their estimated construction cost for sidewalks is $9.00/linear foot. The subject property has 530 ft. of frontage on Tabas La., resulting in an estimated cost/donation amount of $9 x 530 = $4,770. 4. Waiver of §281-34.B(4) of the S/LDO to allow the parking lot landscaping as currently shown, pursuant to comment #7 of the Theurkauf Design and Planning (“Theurkauf”) review dated December 22, 2020. 5. Waiver of §281-35.B(6) of the S/LDO to allow the placement of the loading area as currently shown without the enclosure and screening required by this section. 6. Waiver of §281-67.B(1)(c) of the S/LDO to allow building façade design as proposed. 7. The “Zoning Requirement” chart on Sheet 1 of the Plan shall be corrected. 8. Prior to the issuance of any building permit, the Applicant shall provide documentation that the stormwater management facilities comply with the managed release concept requirements of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, pursuant to comments #14 and #15 of the SSM review dated December 18, 2020. 9. The Plan shall be revised to show all storm sewer piping with a minimum diameter of fifteen inches, pursuant to comment #18 of the SSM review dated December 18, 2020. 10. The Applicant shall resolve the groundwater concerns described in comment #6 of the SSM review dated December 18, 2020 to the satisfaction of the Township as advised by SSM. 11. Payment of a fee in lieu of dedication of permanent open space in the amount of $12,337.002 to be paid in full at or before such time that application is made for the first Building Permit pursuant to this project. 12. Payment of a traffic impact fee in the amount of $3,658.95, pursuant to Township Ordinance No. 427 and comment #2 of the Traffic Planning and Design review dated September 24, 2020. Said fee shall be paid in full at or before such time that application is made for the first Building Permit pursuant to this project. 13. The Applicant shall secure any and all necessary permissions from adjoining property owners to allow the construction of the stormwater management system prior to the issuance of the first Building Permit pursuant to this project. 14. All remaining consultant and Staff concerns shall be resolved to the satisfaction of the Township. 15. Execution and recording of the Township’s Stormwater Facilities Maintenance Agreement and Landscaping Restrictive Covenant, pursuant to Township practice. If the Applicant makes no material revisions or additions to the standard form of the said documents, then the Board hereby authorizes the Township Manager to sign these forms on behalf of the Township. 16. Execution of a Developer Agreement and a Financial Security Agreement pursuant to Township practice. The amount of such security shall be based upon construction cost estimates for the site improvements, including landscaping, to be provided by the Applicant, which shall be reviewed and deemed sufficient by SSM and Theurkauf. If the Applicant makes no material revisions or additions to the standard form of the said agreements, then the Board hereby authorizes the Town- ship Manager to sign these forms on behalf of the Township. 17. Payment of all outstanding Township invoices within 45 days of the date of final plan approval or at time of application for a building permit, whichever comes first.

2 As specified by §281-47.C of the S/LDO, the “inflation calculator” on the website of the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that $910 in July 2019 is now worth $927.77, which is the fee amount per 1,000 sq.ft. of floor area on the ground floor. The fee required here is $927.77 x 13.297, rounded to the nearest whole dollar. 2 The subject property covers 3.01 acres in the Town Center (“TC”) zoning district along the east side of Tabas La., a private street serving several light industrial properties adjacent to the Laborers’ Training facility. The property is the site of Apna Bazar, a 15,104 sq.ft. multi- tenant retail space and is nearly level, sloping gently down from east to west. There are no wooded areas, FEMA-designated floodplains, or regulated steep slopes on the property.

The Applicant is proposing a 13,297 sq.ft. (about 180’ x 75’) storage building that will be ancillary to the existing commercial operation on the site, which is to remain; the parking lot will be enlarged and improved. The Zoning Officer has determined that the proposed building is permitted in the TC zoning district as being ancillary to the existing permitted use, pursuant to §325-13.B(2)(d) of the West Whiteland Township Zoning Ordinance (“Zoning”). There are existing non-conformities on the property, and there is a minor error in the “Zoning Requirement” chart3 on Sheet 1, but the proposed development will not create any new aspects of non-conformity nor worsen any existing non-conformity; no Zoning relief is needed to allow the project.

The Applicant presented this project to the Planning Commission at the meetings of August 4, 2020 and February 2, 2021. During discussion, the Commission considered the need for sidewalks, observing that the Township’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan does not show sidewalks along Tabas La. and ultimately concluding that sidewalks need not be provided here but that the Applicant should make a contribution to the Township’s sidewalk fund equivalent to the cost of the sidewalk that could be required; this is included as condition #3 of the Motion above. The Commission expressed concern about the awkward intersection of Lincoln Hwy. and Tabas La. – particularly given the proximity of the Chester Valley Trail – but it was agreed that this Applicant is not able to resolve this issue. In response, Staff agreed to convene a meeting at the intersection with County officials to discuss what options exist for improving the intersection. At the conclusion of discussion at the February 2 meeting, the Commission unanimously passed a motion recommending that the Board approve the plan with the waivers and conditions as listed above in the Motion.

Tonight is the Applicant’s first presentation of this plan to the Board.

Consultant Reviews

• SSM review dated December 18, 2020. Comments #1 through #4 state that SSM has no objection to any of the requested waivers but defers to other consultants in some cases. Most of the remaining comments direct minor corrections and revisions or note the need for review by other consultants. Comment #6 advises that existing springs on the site may impact the design of the building and notes that the Applicant has agreed to conduct additional testing concerning this issue “prior to finalization of the site development drawings…” The Applicant had not completed this testing by the time of the Planning Commission meeting, but they stated that any findings would not affect the size or placement of the proposed building or paved areas, so the Commission was content to make the testing a condition of plan approval (condition #10 of the Motion). Comments #14 through #21 address the stormwater management facilities. These appear generally satisfactory, and SSM agrees with the Applicant in that infiltration of runoff is not suitable for this site. SSM expressed concerns about whether the design complies with the requirements of the state Department of Environmental Protection

3 It appears that the chart has not been updated to reflect the Zoning amendment of April 22, 2020: there is no longer a required setback from private streets, and the side and rear yard setback requirements shown are not correct. Even so, the proposed development is consistent with the current Zoning, and the lot line setbacks shown for the proposed building comply with the current provisions of §325-13.C(5)(a). 3 (“DEP”) for the managed release concept strategy. The Applicant informed the Planning Commission that they were confident that DEP would find the system to be satisfactory, so the Commission agreed to make this issue a condition of approval (condition #8 of their Motion above). Finally, comment #18 notes that some of the storm sewer piping is smaller than required. The Applicant has agreed to provide compliant pipe, as stated in condition #9 of the Motion. • Theurkauf review dated December 22, 2020. Comment #1 reviews the pedestrian accommodations, expressing concern about the lack of a connection to Lincoln Hwy. While this is true, we cannot require the Applicant to improve property that they do not control. The remaining comments about the on-site pedestrian accommodations are generally satisfactory. Comment #2 addresses compliance with the Town Center architectural design standards. The principal concern is the lack of windows on the lower part of the building. The Planning Commission discussed the design, noting that the use and location of this building suggested that the design was less of a concern than would normally be the case and concluding with a recommendation to waive this provision to allow the design as proposed (condition #6 of the Motion). The review also addresses the existing building. The Planning Commission and Staff agree that the existing building would be an issue only if the Applicant were proposing changes to it. Since that is not the case, these comments are not relevant. Comments #3 and #4 address the landscaped buffers and screens. Comment #3a notes that the new loading area cannot be screened from Tabas La. and suggests that it be relocated to a place where it can be screened. The Planning Commission found this recommendation infeasible and instead support a waiver (condition #5 of the Motion) to allow the landscaping as shown. Comment #3b directs additional plantings around the dumpster enclosure, #4b directs clarification on shrub size, and #4c directs three additional trees to satisfy the perimeter buffer requirement. It appears that the buffer plantings are otherwise satisfactory. Most of the remaining comments document resolution of earlier concerns, although minor revisions and corrections are directed in comments #13 and #15 through #18. • Stubbe Consulting review dated December 18, 2020. Comment #1 states that additional information is required to determine compliance with the limits on overnight lighting. Comments #2 and #3 advise that that additional information is needed to determine compliance with minimum standards. Comment #4 expresses concern about the landscaping interfering with the lighting, particularly as the landscaping matures, and comment #6 questions whether a proposed lamppost near the stormwater basin has an adequate footing. Comment #5 directs the addition of specific notes to the plan. • Traffic Planning and Design (“TPD”) review dated January 4, 2021. Comment #1 raises concerns about the intersection of Tabas La. and Lincoln Hwy. The Commission discussed this matter and determined that this Applicant cannot be directed to resolve this issue since they do not have the legal right to improve the intersection. The Applicant has similar limitations regarding the recommendation to widen Tabas La. (comment #9). Staff will coordinate a meeting with TPD, the County, and other stakeholders – unrelated to the review of this project – to determine how best to mitigate these concerns. Comment #2 addresses the loading areas. We note that the “loading area” on the south side of the building is actually a garage door allowing vehicle access into the

4 building: it is not, in fact, a loading area. The plan shows that if the loading area at the northwest corner of the building is in full use, the north access to the site will be blocked. General Note 29 on Sheet 1 addresses this by stating that there will be limits on both the size of trucks that will use the dock bays as well as hours of use. TPD is concerned about the practicality and enforceability of this solution. While these are valid concerns, we note that even if the north driveway is blocked the site is fully accessible from the south driveway: a blockage would not create a public hazard. The Planning Commission and Staff are therefore agreeable to the design as proposed, noting that the enforcement of any restrictions will be incumbent upon the property owner (not the Township) and in their own interest. Comment #12 questions the placement of the trash dumpster at the southeast corner of the proposed building. We agree that the location is not ideal, but the Applicant prefers this location and we find that this is a private concern and not a matter of public interest. Comment #13 raises the same concern about sidewalks as comment #1 of the Theurkauf review. Comments #8, #14, and #15 describe minor additions and revisions to the drawing that should be executed prior to recording of the plan. Prior reviews have advised that the traffic study provided by the Applicant is acceptable and that the traffic impact fee for this project is $3,658.95 • Director of Public Works memorandum dated January 4, 2021. Mr. Otteni recommends removal of several signs and directs a correction to the stormwater facility maintenance provisions on Sheet 10. • Chester County Planning Commission review dated August 11, 2020. Comment #1 states that this project is consistent with the County Comprehensive Plan. The remaining comments in the “Watersheds” and “Primary Issues” sections are addressed by either our regulations or in our consultant and Staff comments.

The Fire Marshal and Chief of Police have advised that they have no comments on this project.

Staff Comment

While there are a number of remaining issues, Staff is of the opinion that they are sufficiently minor to be addressed as conditions of approval. Staff has no objection to Board action on the Motion tonight.

The review period for this plan will expire prior to the next Board meeting. If you elect not to act on this plan tonight, it will be necessary to secure an extension from the Applicant in to prevent a deemed approval.

RE: RAJ Real Estate, LLC (4 Tabas Lane) Final Land Development Plan SSM File 101008.0322

Dear Mr. Weller:

We have reviewed the above referenced application, consisting of the following:  Vastardis Consulting Engineers, LLC Plan Set (12 sheets), dated January 6, 2020, most recently revised November 19, 2020 and  Warehouse Storage Building Rendering Raj Real Estate is proposing to construct a 13,297 square foot building for storage purposes at 4 Tabas Lane. Currently on the site is a 15,104 sq. ft. retail commercial building which is proposed to remain as is. The tract is 3.009 acres and zoned Town Center Mixed Use. Issues regarding traffic and pedestrian circulation, landscaping, and lighting will be addressed by Traffic Planning and Design, Theurkauf Design and Planning, and Stan Stubbe, respectively. We have the following comments.

WAIVERS REQUESTED 1. Sections 270-20.A, C & D – These sections require various volumes of stormwater runoff infiltration. We support the waiver request based on the conclusions of the previously submitted Carbonate Geology and Infiltration reports. 2. Section 281-35.D & E – To allow the required perimeter buffer and screen widths to be reduced as shown per the parking setbacks allowed by §325-13.C(5)(c) of the Town Center Zoning regulations and as allowed by SALDO. The applicant has indicated they will be installing perimeter fencing to provide additional screening. Theurkauf Design and Planning should comment on this request. 3. Section 281-31.A – To not provide sidewalks along Tabas Lane. We have no objection to this request. 4. Section 281-34.B – A partial waiver request to not plant a shade tree in the parking islands on the top of the proposed basin where the sidewalk is proposed. Theurkauf Design and Planning should comment on this request.

ENGINEERING | SURVEYING | ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES Mr. John Weller | West Whiteland Township SSM File 101008.0322 December 18, 2020 Page 2 of 3 ( > SSM

COMPLIANCE WITH ZONING ORDINANCE 5. All new construction shall comply with the architectural design standards established by Section 281- 67 of the SALDO, Section 325-13.D(3). It is our understanding that Theurkauf Design and Planning is reviewing the plans for these requirements. COMPLIANCE WITH ZONING ARTICLE XV: CARBONATE AREA DISTRICT 6. Regarding Section 325-77.A(4), SSM observed springs on the site at the northern side of this property immediately after the construction of the Cube Smart project. The plans and design must also demonstrate how groundwater seepage and perched groundwater conditions will be addressed. The plan now notes that the applicant will perform “preliminary test excavations in the northern section of the property, in the near future, and prior to the finalization of the site development drawings, …If springs or high groundwater are encountered, the plans and design will incorporate methods to address this condition.” We recommend that the Township does not approve the plans until the tests are complete and that we be notified 3 working days prior to the tests being competed so that we may be present. In addition, the tests shall be overseen by a licensed geologist, engineer or soil scientist that has experience in evaluating soil tests pits for a seasonal high or perched water table.

COMPLIANCE WITH SUBDIVISION AND LAND DEVELOPMENT ORDINANCE 7. The type and size of curbing to be installed shall be provided, Section 281-17.E(3)(c) and shall be in accordance with the details in Attachment 4, Appendix D. 8. The words “are correct” shall be removed from the engineer/surveyor’s Certification of Accuracy. The engineer’s signature, seal and date shall be provided in the Certificate of Accuracy prior to the Township endorsing the plan, Section 281-17.G. 9. The “Owner’s Affidavit” that has been replaced by the new one shall be removed. 10. The design of the proposed site element screens shall be in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 281-35.G. Details of the fence around the dumpster pad shall be provided. 11. An improvements agreement and guarantee will be required, Section 281-54. The design engineer shall submit a site construction cost estimate for review. 12. Proposed buildings which require land development approval, but are not conditional uses shall submit conceptual architectural documentation to West Whiteland Township which demonstrates compliance with the architectural design standards for the Town Center Mixed Use District, Section 281-67.A(2). It is our understanding that Theurkauf Design and Planning is reviewing the plans for these requirements. 13. Architectural documentation submitted to the Township for review shall include shadow projections created by façade articulations in accordance with the Section 281-67.B. It is our understanding that Theurkauf Design and Planning is reviewing the plans for these requirements.

COMPLIANCE WITH STORMWATER MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE 14. Section 270-19 requires site designs to address water quality. Since infiltration is not feasible on this site, water quality BMPs must be provided in accordance with the Managed Release Concept (MRC) outlined by PaDEP. Calculations that are consistent with the MRC and PaDEP NPDES permit Mr. John Weller | West Whiteland Township SSM File 101008.0322 December 18, 2020 Page 3 of 3 ( > SSM

requirements must be submitted for review. We note that the issuance of an NPDES permit for this project will satisfy Section 270-19. 15. To verify that the design is consistent with the Managed Release Concept (MRC) requirements, complete MRC calculations must be provided for review. The Managed Release Concept Design Summary sheet from PaDEP must be provided and completed for each MRC BMP. 16. The applicant shall provide the Township with the “letter of adequacy” from the Chester County Conservation District for the E&S Plan prior to the Township endorsing the plan, Section 270- 17.A(1)(a). 17. The applicant shall provide the Township with a copy of the required NPDES Permit prior to the Township endorsing the plan, Section 270-17.A(1)(b). 18. Storm sewers shall have a minimum diameter of 15 inches except within BMPs, e.g. underdrain systems, Section 270-29.E(2). Eight inch diameter PVC storm sewers are specified throughout the development. 19. The applicant statement of Section 270-32.A(3) and the design engineer signature block of Section 270-32.A(4) shall be signed prior to the Township endorsing the plan. 20. A stormwater operation and maintenance agreement shall be provided, Section 270-43. 21. Note 2 under the OS01 detail on sheet 10 shall be removed.

GENERAL 22. The curb entrance returns shall be tangent to Tabas Lane. 23. The driveway crossing trench restoration detail does not appear to be applicable. However, the same detail would be appropriate for trench repair within Tabas Lane with the following modifications: a. The paving cross section shall be in accordance with Attachment 4 – Appendix D Street Section Detail. b. Asphalt paving specifications shall use Superpave nomenclature. 24. All asphalt paving specifications listed on the plans shall use Superpave nomenclature. 25. The typical road rehabilitation detail appears to not be applicable and therefore shall be removed. If the design engineer believes that it is applicable, they should contact the author of this letter to discuss where it is applicable and appropriate modifications may be required. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Sincerely, Spotts, Stevens and McCoy

December 22, 2020

1. Pedestrian Accessibility – Section 325-13.A.1 of the zoning ordinance (ZO) establishes the Town Center District as a mixed use, pedestrian-oriented area. Section 325-37.A.7.a.2 (ZO) requires walkable access to community facilities and commercial areas. Sections 281-31.A (SLDO) and 281-69 (SLDO) require sidewalks along all streets, with additional specific standards within the Town Center District. With no provision for pedestrian access from offsite proposed, the plan fails to meet the core purpose of the Town Center District and the objective standards of the zoning and land development ordinances: a. Pedestrians access the farmers market from Tabas Lane and the Chester Valley Trail (CVT), yet no sidewalks to the site are proposed. The plan shall be revised to extend a six foot wide sidewalk along the Tabas Lane property frontage with connections into the site to achieve even rudimentary ordinance compliance. As a matter of public safety, the sidewalk should extend along Tabas Lane to Route 30 and the Chester Valley Trail. b. Per section 281-69.C (SLDO), sidewalks serving commercial buildings shall be at least 6 feet wide, and 11-foot-wide sidewalks are required between parking areas and the entrances to commercial buildings. The plan indicates an 11-foot-wide sidewalk in front of the market entrance and a 6-foot-wide sidewalk along the south market façade. This issue has been resolved. c. The plan proposes a trash can in front of the south storage building entrance. It shall relocate the trash can to provide clear pedestrian access to building entrances. d. Section 281-69.A.1 (SLDO) requires crosswalks with decorative surface treatments such as masonry unit pavers, colored concrete or stamped asphalt across all intersections. The plan shall provide a detail or specification consistent with Town Center standards for the crosswalk between the market and storage building. e. 20% of all sidewalks shall have decorative surface treatments in accordance with section 281-69.C.4 (SLDO). The plan has been revised to specify stamped colored concrete for the storage building sidewalk. This issue has been resolved.

2. Architecture – Section 325-13.D (ZO) requires that buildings comply with the Town Center architectural standards of section 281-67 (SLDO). The following shall be addressed: a. Section 281-67.B.1.c (SLDO) states that within the first 12 vertical feet of a façade, the maximum façade length without windows, glass display windows, or glass storefronts shall not exceed 100 horizontal feet. With the exception of the main building entrance, the submitted architectural rendering indicates no windows within 12 feet of the storage building’s ground floor. b. The proposed development of the site into a mixed use complex requires the existing building to meet the architectural standards of the Town Center. The market building

1350 Elbow Lane • Chester Springs, PA 19425 phone 484-888-5574 email [email protected] www.theurkauf.com Page | 3 REVIEW COMMENTS – RAJ REAL ESTATE LAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN DATED 12-14-20

December 22, 2020

has massive corrugated metal façades without architectural interest and meets none of the architectural criteria of the Exton Town Center. The Township shall determine whether the existing building must be modified to comply with Town Center standards, and if not how it will be screened from a new building that meets those standards, and from the street and adjacent properties in the Town Center District. The plan should be revised to mitigate the existing building’s appearance and scale: • Architectural treatments should be employed, such as horizontal/vertical façade offsets, changes in surface material, first floor windows, glass storefronts, and roofline variations in accordance with section 281-67 of the subdivision and land development ordinance (SLDO); or • Vegetative site element screens should be provided along the north, east, and Tabas Lane building facades to conceal views of the noncompliant building from off site. This strategy could include architectural green walls with climbing plants where space for plantings is limited.

The proposed building shall be redesigned for compliance with Town Center architectural standards. The Township shall determine required modifications to the existing building.

3. Site Element Screening – In accordance with sections 281-70.A and 281-35.G (SLDO), site element screens are required as follows:

a. Loading and Utility Screens – Section 281-35.G (SLDO) requires high vegetated screens around loading areas. In addition, section 281-35.B.6 (SLDO) requires all loading and utility equipment to be completely screened from view from adjacent streets. Per section 281-35.B.3 (SLDO), fencing may be used in conjunction with required landscaping, not to replace it. The plan shall be revised as follows prior to approval: • The storage building loading area would be visible from Tabas Lane as proposed. The plan shall be reconfigured so that the loading area is not visible from the road. • The plan proposes fencing to screen the existing building’s equipment, in place of the required high screen. The plan shall indicate a high screen consisting of large evergreen shrubs around the equipment in addition to the fencing. b. Trash Area Screen – Section 281-35.G.1 (SLDO) requires high screens around trash areas without decorative enclosures. The plan indicates a dumpster area with a wooden fence enclosure and no space for required screen vegetation adjacent to the proposed building. The plan shall be revised to provide a high vegetated screen with large

December 22, 2020

evergreen shrubs or evergreen trees between the dumpster enclosure and the proposed adjacent residential development, in which case we would support a waiver to permit a partial screen. c. Storage Building Screen – Section 281-35.G.1.b (SLDO) requires high screens for storage buildings without decorative façade treatments. If Exton Town Center architectural standards were met, no screen would be required. The plan has been revised to indicate a complete high screen around the north and east storage building facades. The south and west facades shall be revised per comment 3 to comply with Town Center architectural standards. A high screen will be required wherever the storage or loading function of the building is evident from the exterior. d. Parking Lot Screens – Section 281-35.G.1 (SLDO) requires low screens around parking lots. The plan has been revised to indicate a complete low screen around the south parking lot. This issue has been resolved.

4. Perimeter Buffers – Section 281-35.E (SLDO) requires 25-foot-wide vegetated perimeter buffers along property lines and around stormwater basins as follows: Buffer/Length Plant Type Required Qty. Proposed Qty. North/245 LF Shade Trees 2 2 Evergreen Trees 5 10 Large Shrubs 25 0 East/480 LF Shade Trees 5 8 Evergreen Trees 10 11 Large Shrubs 24 12* South/250 LF Shade Trees 3 0 Evergreen Trees 5 0 Large Shrubs 13 25 Basin/340 LF Shade Trees 3 0 Evergreen Trees 7 0 Large Shrubs 17 17 *Equivalent value of proposed small shrubs a. The surplus evergreen trees in the north buffer are equivalent to the monetary value of the shrub requirement. Thus we find the north buffer plantings acceptable per section 281-33.D.9 (SLDO).

December 22, 2020

b. The east buffer would comply with shrub planting requirements if proposed shrubs were specified as minimum 3 feet tall at planting. The plan shall be revised accordingly. c. Required trees cannot be provided in the south buffer as shown. The required south buffer shade trees have been proposed in the east buffer. However, the required evergreen buffer trees are missing, and the equivalent value of shrubs in excess of south buffer requirements does not fully compensate for the missing trees. The plan shall be revised as follows to improve buffering: • Provide three required south buffer evergreen trees in the east buffer to increase visual screening between the site and the proposed adjacent residential development. • If perimeter fencing per the waiver request note on sheet 1 is to be provided, then the plan shall show the fence location and details. d. The basin has been redesigned as a naturalistic basin. No buffer is required.

5. Naturalistic Basin Requirements – Section 281-35.F.4 (SLDO) allows naturalistic basins without perimeter buffers. The basin has been redesigned with 4:1 side slopes and 100% native vegetation. This issue has been resolved.

6. Street Trees – Section 281-36.D (SLDO) requires street trees as follows: Street/Length Required Qty. Proposed Qty. Tabas Lane/530 LF 11 11 A waiver is requested to permit street trees elsewhere on the site due to the existing building’s proximity to Tabas Lane. We support a waiver on street tree location to allow this.

7. Parking Lot Landscape Islands - Section 281-34.B.4 (SLDO) states that each island shall contain one shade tree. Three parking lot islands opposite the market building entrance are missing the required shade trees due to a proposed sidewalk and subsurface basin. Three trees in excess of requirements are proposed in the divider strip. We would support a waiver to permit trees as proposed.

8. Divider Strip Shade Trees – Section 281-37.C.2.a (SLDO) requires shade trees in parking lot divider strips as follows: Divider Strip/ Length Required Qty. Proposed Qty. Main Parking Lot/ 189 LF 4 7 In addition to the trees, the strip is planted with ground cover plantings. This issue is resolved. 1350 Elbow Lane • Chester Springs, PA 19425 phone 484-888-5574 email [email protected] www.theurkauf.com Page | 6 REVIEW COMMENTS – RAJ REAL ESTATE LAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN DATED 12-14-20

December 22, 2020

9. Building Façade Landscaping – In accordance with section 281-37.D (SLDO), plantings shall be placed between parking lots and buildings as follows: Façade/Length Plant Type Required Qty. Proposed Qty. Storage South/74 LF Shade Trees 1 0 Perennials 74 15 Retail South/68 LF Shade Trees 1 3 Perennials 68 50 Retail East/156 LF Shade Trees 3 2 Perennials 156 240 Overall, the required quantities of façade plantings are proposed. We consider this issue resolved.

10. Tree Protection and Compensatory Planting – This issue is resolved.

11. Landscaping/Infrastructure Conflicts – Section 281-36.D.5 (SLDO) prohibits tree plantings that interfere with sidewalks, lights, and utilities. Trees shall be planted at least 15 feet from overhead wires and at least 10 feet from underground utilities. If trees are located closer than 10 feet to a sidewalk, root barriers in accordance with section 281-36.D.5.a (SLDO) are required. The following shall be addressed: a. Overhead Wires – The plan has relocated trees to at least 15 feet away from overhead wires. This issue has been resolved. b. Underground Utilities – Four Hornbeam trees, three Thuja, nine Cryptomeria, and one Birch tree are shown within 10 feet of proposed underground gas and sanitary sewer lines. The plan shall resolve conflicts between utilities and required trees. c. Potential Lighting Conflicts – The landscape plan shall be revised to indicate proposed light fixtures. d. Root Barriers – The required root barriers have been provided. This issue has been resolved.

12. Exton Town Center Site Furnishings – In accordance with section 281-68 (SLDO), site furnishings are required for commercial developments as follows: Building/Area Furnishing Required Qty. Proposed Qty. Ex. Retail/15,100 SF Benches 3 3 Bicycle Racks 1 1 Trash Cans 3 3

December 22, 2020

Building/Area Furnishing Required Qty. Proposed Qty. Storage/13,297 SF Benches 3 3 Bicycle Racks 1 1 Trash Cans 3 3 This issue is resolved.

13. Species Mix Requirements – Section 281-33.D.7.b.2 (SLDO) states that when 100 or more shrubs are required, no more than 30% may be of one species. 35.5% (50/141) of shrubs are Virginia Sweetspire. The plan shall indicate the required species mix.

14. Plant Cultural Requirements – The plan has replaced Red Maple with ‘Urban Pinnacle’ Bur Oak along Tabas Lane. This issue has been resolved.

15. Landscaping Size Requirements – Section 281-33.D.1 (SLDO) states that shade and street trees shall have a minimum 2-inch caliper. Section 281-33.D.4.b (SLDO) requires small shrubs to be at least 24 inches tall or 18 inches wide, depending on variety. The planting schedule shall be revised as follows: a. One ‘Skyline’ Honeylocust is specified at minimum 1.5-inch caliper. It shall be specified at minimum 2-inch caliper. b. ‘Zabeliana’ Cherry Laurel is specified at minimum 18-inch height or spread. It shall be specified at minimum 24-inch height. c. Required small shrubs are specified at minimum 24-inch height or spread. They shall be specified at minimum 24-inch height only.

16. Landscape Architecture Seal – Section 281-33.C.6.g (SLDO) requires landscaping plans to include the signature and seal of the Pennsylvania registered landscape architect preparing the plans. The required signature and seal have not been provided.

17. Plan Error – The plan provides a detail for 6-foot-high black panel fencing around the market building utility equipment, but labels the fencing as 10-foot-high chain link with plastic slats. The plan shall revise the fencing label for consistency with the detail.

18. Cost Estimate – The landscaping cost estimate shall be revised to reflect Township landscaping size standards, basin plantings, the plant schedule, and current costs as indicated in bold as follows:

Mr. Ed. Theurkauf, ASLA, RLA, APA Theurkauf Design & Planning LLC 1350 Elbow Lane Chester Springs, PA 19425 Subject: Raj Real Estate, LLC, 4 Tabas Lane, West Whiteland Twp. Fifth Site-Lighting Review Dear Ed., On 12/14/20, West Whiteland Township transmitted a link to an 11/19/20 plan set, for the Raj Real Estate, LLC Application at 4 Tabas Lane. Revised proposed site lighting, on Sheet 6, Lighting Plan, and lighting details on Sheet 7, Lighting and Landscaping Details, consists of 9 fully-shielded 3000K area luminaires, with Type IV and V distribution, mounted at nominally 18' AFG, in single and double per pole configurations, on bishop's crook arms, atop round-tapered aluminum poles; and 12 fully-shielded 3000K luminaires with Type IV forward-throw distribution, facade- mounted at 12' AFF. The following comments and recommendations, some repeated from this office's 09/08/20 review, are offered for Township consideration, based on the requirements contained in SLDO Chapter § 281-48, Lighting Control, and reasonable and customary engineering practices: 1. Lighting Control - § 281-48.C.(3)(c) requires lighting to be controlled by automatic switching devices to extinguish outdoor lighting by 11 p.m. until dawn, or within 1 hour of the close of business. Plan General Note 1. specifies that all pole-mounted lighting is to be automatically extinguished nightly by 11 p.m.. General Note 2. specifies that wall-mounted luminaires are to operate dusk-to-dawn. a. Wall-Mounted Lighting - It is recommended consideration be given to requesting that Applicant provide Township with suitable justification why the 12 wall-mounted luminaires are specified to remain on dusk to dawn, or whether having only selected luminaires all night would satisfy the need for sufficient all-night lighting; whether, if the lighting is for security, motion detection would suffice; and, regardless of the specified arrangement, to specify on Plan the device or devices proposed to effect the dusk-to-dawn or alternative control. b. Area-Lighting - It is recommended Applicant be requested to specify on Lighting Plan the manufacturer and catalog number of the device or devices to be used to automatically extinguish the pole-mounted lighting nightly, and where the device or devices are to be located. It is further recommended that specified control device be requested to contain memory capability to save on/off settings in the event of a power outage. 2. Illuminance Plots - The plotted isometric illuminance values are based on the use of 4000K sources, rather than the specified 3000K sources. Helping municipalities insist on responsible outdoor lighting

If specified 3000K luminaires have a lower light output than the previously specified 4000K sources, it is recommended Applicant be requested to provide relevant iso-footcandle plots, or correction factor. 3. Lighting Coverage - The paved area on the crosswalk just below the "Proposed Bike Rack" label, is not totally within the plotted iso-candle curves, and it is therefore uncertain whether the Ordinance required 0.2 footcandle minimum will be achieved in this area. It is recommended Applicant be requested to provide suitable evidence that a minimum of 0.2 footcandles will be achieved. 4. Landscaping - Potential lighting and landscaping conflicts. It is recommended Applicant be requested to plot luminaire locations on Sheet 5, Landscaping Plan, and to have the landscaping and lighting disciplines review plan for potential light blockage at or before tree maturity, and to take appropriate remedial action if and where judged to be necessary. 5. Plan Notes It is recommended Applicant be requested to add the following notes to Lighting Plan: a. Proposed variations from specified lighting equipment, luminaire mounting heights and locations shall be submitted for Township review and approval, prior to installation. b. West Whiteland Township reserves the right to conduct one or more post- installation inspections of installed lighting, and if deemed necessary, to require appropriate remedial action, at no cost to Township. 6. Footing Adequacy - There is a Type A-2 luminaire proposed to be located plan-west of the proposed retention basin. It is recommended Applicant be requested to provide Township with assurance that the specified footing design is adequate for this location, or to take appropriate corrective action. If there are questions or concerns regarding this review and its recommendations, please advise. Sincerely, Stubbe Consulting LLC

RE: 4 Tabas Lane – RAJ Real Estate Land Development Plan Review – Warehouse Facility West Whiteland Township, Chester County TPD# WWT-00204

Dear Mimi:

In our role as Township Traffic Engineer, Traffic Planning and Design, Inc. (TPD) reviewed the following items, which were received in our office on December 14, 2020: • Land Development Plans (Sheets 1-12) prepared by Vastardis Consulting Engineers, LLC, (VCE) dated July 2, 2020, last revised November 19, 2020; • Response letter prepared by VCE dated December 11, 2020.

Based on our review, we offer the following comments using the same numbering system as our July 28, 2020 and September 24, 2020 review letters for those comments not yet addressed. Comments that were addressed are not shown.

Traffic Study Comments

1. As indicated in our previous reviews, some of the signs along Lincoln Highway at the intersection with Tabas Lane can be eliminated or relocated outside of the sight triangle to improve sight distance. In addition, sight distance could be improved by providing painted radii and relocating the stop bar closer to Lincoln Highway. A plan needs to be provided showing the signs and pavement markings within the sight triangles with recommendations for removal/relocation of signs and pavement markings to improve sight distance.

The previous response letter indicated the Applicant does not intend to address the sight distance issues for the intersection of Lincoln Highway and Tabas Lane because this is “out of the scope of the development of this property.” However, in our opinion, the intersection of Lincoln Highway and Tabas Lane is within the scope of the development of this property since this intersection is the only way to access the proposed warehouse. In addition, the proposed warehouse will add traffic to the intersection.

Previous Plan Comments

2. The depth of the loading areas on both the west and south sides of the building is only 15-18 feet which is inadequate to stack an automobile, let alone a truck, without the vehicle extending into the circulation aisle. Note 29 has been added to Sheet 1 which states, “Loading trucks larger than 30’ are prohibited from accessing the site. Loading trucks must access the proposed warehouse after hours.” We have numerous issues with this plan to address this safety issue:

a. It is impractical to assume that no loading or unloading will occur during the hours that the warehouse and/or market is open and there is no way to enforce these two prohibitions.

b. The plans show no signing to convey the message to drivers or to aid in enforcement.

c. The note is vague and does not indicate the hours of the restriction.

d. Even 30 foot long trucks extend into the circulation aisles which reduces traffic to one way flow at both the northwest and southeast corners of the building. This issue is particularly acute at the northwest corner of the building because it forces motorists exiting the site to watch for three things at once (on-coming traffic, a truck pulling out of either one of the two loading docks, and incoming pedestrians returning from the nearby retail establishments on Lincoln Highway). This unsafe condition is further magnified if a van, parked at the loading dock closest to CubeSmart, pulls out of this space but sight distance to/from the van is obstructed by a 30 foot long box truck parked next to it.

In our opinion, the following revisions represent a better method to address this safety issue:

i. Reduce the width of the circulation aisle on the south side of the building from 29 feet to 24 feet so that the depth of the pull-in area to the garage door can be increased to approximately 23 feet with standard MUTCD R5-2 NO TRUCKS signage prohibiting trucks from using this pull-in area to the garage door.

ii. Provide and maintain 4 inch wide white thermoplastic striping to provide a uniform 24 foot wide circulation aisle between the circulation aisle on the west side of the proposed storage building and the 24 foot wide northern access point.

iii. Use crosshatch striping to designate loading zones for the two loading docks on the west side of the proposed building. In our opinion, the loading zone needs to be offset at least two feet from the 4 inch wide striping recommended in ii. In doing this, the size of the vehicle that can be accommodated in the loading zone furthest from the CubeSmart will be less than the size of the truck that can be accommodated in the loading zone closest to the CubeSmart. In our opinion, this differential should address the sight distance issue presented in 2.d.

Ms. Mimi Gleason January 4, 2021 Page 3

iv. Post MUTCD R5-2 NO TRUCK signs above the two loading docks with the length restriction for that particular loading dock attached to each based on the results of iii.

v. Standard MUTCD R5-2 NO TRUCK signs with the length restriction must be installed facing inbound traffic at the two access points.

vi. With these revisions, it may be possible to eliminate the hourly restriction signage provided a note is added to the plans that trash and recycling pick-ups will be limited to non-operating hours with the times noted.

8. The bollard spacing must be clearly labeled on the plans indicating spacing of thirty inches on center from the center of the parking space. This will provide a spacing of approximately five feet between all bollards, which will help to prevent vehicles from passing between the bollards and allow pedestrians to pass through. In addition, the bollards must be provided at the same spacing along the handicap loading areas.

9. Scaling the plans yields an existing width of approximately 18 to 19 feet for Tabas Lane. Tabas Lane needs to be widened to a minimum of 28 feet with curbing to comply with Section 281-25 of the West Whiteland Township Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (SALDO). While Tabas Lane is a private road, Section 281-25.C of the SALDO indicates “the width for private streets shall not be less than that required for a local street.” At a minimum, the Applicant needs to widen along the site frontage.

11. The following comments pertain to the truck turning templates: b. The delivery truck template indicates only the smallest sized box trucks with an overall length of 30 feet and two axles will serve both the proposed warehouse and the existing market. With a longer loading zone, larger trucks can be permitted at the existing market, but truck turning templates would need to be provided to justify this increase. In addition, the truck turning templates provided assumed no trucks would be parked at the loading dock on the west side of the new building when another truck pulled in. Revisions to the truck template for access to these loading docks need to be revised to address this issue and to address any size restrictions from Comment 2.iii.

c. If completed, the revision in Comment 2.i will address Comment 11.c from 9/24/2020.

12. Truck templates have been provided for the proposed dumpster pad located near the southeast corner of the storage building as requested. In addition, the response letter indicates that this dumpster will serve both the warehouse and existing market. In our opinion, it is impractical to assume that the market will use the dumpster in this location due to its distance from the market. Therefore, it is likely that an additional dumpster will be provided in the market loading area in the future, which will impact delivery truck access. The practicality of the dumpster location, ability of the Township to enforce dumpster placement in the future, and dumpster location impacts to deliveries to the site should be discussed with the Township.

Ms. Mimi Gleason January 4, 2021 Page 4

13. The need for sidewalk and/or a proposed trail along Tabas Lane to provide a connection to the Chester Valley Trail as shown on the Township’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Connections Map is strongly recommended particularly with the proximity of a Dunkin Donuts and a Primo Hoagies in such close proximity on Lincoln Highway serving as an attraction for employees and customers alike.

14. There are still several locations within the parking lot where the curb radii are less than five feet. The radii should be revised to be a minimum of five feet in all locations. In addition, a note should be provided on the plans indicating that all radii shall be a minimum of five feet.

15. All radii within the parking lot must intersect the adjacent curbing at a tangent to provide a smooth transition. The response letter indicates the radii have been revised accordingly. However, there are still several radii with the kinks as currently shown. For example, the corner radii on the Tabas Lane driveways are only provided for approximately half of the length of the radii and must be revised to provide a full radius that intersects the driveway and Tabas Lane at tangent points.

We reserve the right to make additional comments upon receipt of subsequent submissions.

Sincerely,

Kevin L. Johnson, P.E. President

Re: Preliminary/Final Land Development - Raj Real Estate LLC, 4 Tabas Lane # West Whiteland Township – LD-07-20-16407

Dear Mr. Weller:

A Preliminary/Final Land Development Plan entitled "Raj Real Estate LLC, 4 Tabas Lane", prepared by Vastardis Consulting Engineers LLC, and dated July 2, 2020, was received by this office on July 14, 2020. This plan is reviewed by the Chester County Planning Commission in accord with the provisions of Section 502 of the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code. We offer the following comments on the proposed land development for your consideration.

PROJECT SUMMARY:

Location: the east side of Tabas Lane, south of East Lincoln Highway Site Acreage: 3.01 Lots/Units: 1 Existing Building, 1 Proposed Building Non-Res. Square Footage: 13,297 Proposed Land Use: Warehouse, Retail New Parking Spaces: 91 Municipal Land Use Plan Designation: BP Business Park; and Character Area 1-Lincoln Highway and Whitford Road Corridors Plan UPI#: 41-5-175

PROPOSAL:

The applicant proposes the construction of a 13,297 square foot storage and retail building, containing four 813 square foot retail spaces and a 10,045 square foot storage facility. The existing 15,104 square foot commercial building will remain. Ninety-one (91) parking spaces will be provided. The project site, which will be served by public water and public sewer, is located in the TC Town Center Mixed Use zoning district.

RECOMMENDATION: The County Planning Commission recommends that the issues raised in this letter should be addressed, and all Township issues should be resolved before action is taken on this land development plan.

email: [email protected] • website: www.chescoplanning.org Page: 2 Re: Preliminary/Final Land Development - Raj Real Estate LLC, 4 Tabas Lane # West Whiteland Township – LD-07-20-16407

COUNTY POLICY:

LANDSCAPES:

1. The project site is located within the Suburban Center Landscape designation of Landscapes3, the 2018 County Comprehensive Plan. The vision for the Suburban Center Landscape is regional economic, population and transportation centers with varying land uses, accommodating substantial future growth of medium to high intensity. Repurposing obsolete structures and sites and encouraging sustainable development will be critical as suburban centers grow, and transportation infrastructure and amenities will need to expand to create an integrated multimodal network. The proposed storage and retail building is appropriately located in a Suburban Center Landscape designation.

WATERSHEDS:

2. Watersheds, the water resources component of Landscapes3, indicates the proposed development is located within the Valley Creek (West) subbasin of the Brandywine Creek watershed. Watersheds’ highest priority land use objectives within this watershed are: reduce stormwater runoff, restore water quality of “impaired” streams, and protect vegetated riparian corridors. Watersheds can be accessed at www.chesco.org/water.

Site Plan Detail, Sheet 1: Preliminary/Final Land Development - Raj Real Estate LLC, 4 Tabas Lane

PRIMARY ISSUES:

3. The Chester Valley Trail crosses Tabas Lane (a private road) to the immediate south of the Tabas Lane/East Lincoln Highway intersection. It is our understanding, according to information provided by the Chester County Department of Facilities, that there are no known issues and very few, if any, complaints from trail users about this particular crossing. However, this project, if approved, will result in additional vehicular traffic using Tabas Lane. Additionally, there is likely to be increased trail usage in this area in the immediate future due the number of new residential units being proposed and constructed in this area of the Township. We suggest that the Township engineer evaluate the design of the existing intersection and trail crossing, in order to determine if any long-term improvements are required to ensure safe pedestrian access at this location.

4. Prior to granting final plan approval, the Township should ensure that this proposal meets all applicable landscaping standards set forth in the Township Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance. While the Relief Requested table on Sheet 1 indicates the applicant is requesting a waiver to reduce the required perimeter buffer (which is further discussed in comment #9), a landscaping plan was not included with the current plan submission. Landscapes3 recommends that developments in the Suburban Center Landscape include extensive landscaping in parking areas (page 37).

Page: 4 Re: Preliminary/Final Land Development - Raj Real Estate LLC, 4 Tabas Lane # West Whiteland Township – LD-07-20-16407

5. The Township should verify that the design and location of any proposed outdoor lighting conforms to Township ordinance requirements (a lighting plan was not included with the plan submission). The illumination should be directed inward from the periphery of the site and be oriented to reduce glare and visual impact on the adjoining roadways and land uses.

6. The site is underlain by carbonate geology in which the presence or potential may exist for formation and/or expansion of solution channels, sinkholes and other karst features. These features can present risk of collapse and groundwater contamination that often can be overcome and avoided with careful stormwater management design. The location, type, and design of stormwater facilities and best management practices (BMPs) should be based on a site evaluation conducted by a qualified licensed professional that ascertains the conditions relevant to formation of karst features, and the PA BMP Manual or other design guidance acceptable to the Municipal Engineer.

7. The proposed land development appears to be in proximity to three hazardous liquid transmission pipelines. Applicants should be aware that the actual pipeline locations may not always be within the center of the easement or right-of-way. To minimize risks before and during construction, the project designer should contact the Pennsylvania One Call Center at 811 or http://www.pa1call.org/pa811, consistent with the provisions of Section 4(2) of Act 287 (Underground Utility Protection Act), prior to finalizing the design. The PA One Call Center should also be contacted at least 3 business days, but not more than 10 days, prior to any excavation. More information about pipeline safety can be found at the Chester County Pipeline Information Center at: http://www.chescoplanning.org/pic/introduction.cfm.

ADMINISTRATIVE ISSUES:

8. Land disturbance and land development activities that occur within Chester County must comply with the County-wide Act 167 Stormwater Management Plan for Chester County, PA (July 2013) and the associated Act 167 stormwater management ordinance standards adopted by each municipality.

9. The Relief Requested table on Sheet 1 indicates that the applicant is requesting one waiver from Chapter 270-Stormwater Management of the Township Code, pertaining to infiltration in a carbonate geology area, along with three waivers from the design standards in Article IV of the Township Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance. Waiver requests should only be granted following the determination that the proposed project either meets the purpose of these requirements or does not create the impacts that these provisions are intended to manage.

10. The applicant should contact the office of the Chester County Conservation District (CCCD) for information and clarification on erosion control measures. The provisions of the Commonwealth Erosion Control Regulations may apply to the project and may require an Earth Disturbance Permit or a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit for discharge of stormwater from construction activities.

11. A minimum of four (4) copies of the plan should be presented at the Chester County Planning Commission for endorsement to permit recording of the final plan in accord with the procedures of Act 247, the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code, and to meet the requirements of the Recorder of Deeds and the Assessment Office.

Board of Supervisors: Raj Kumbhardare, Theresa Santalucia, Joshua Anderson MEMORANDUM TO: Board of Supervisors West Whiteland FROM: Beth Jones, Finance Director ~ SUBJECT: 2020 Year-End Unaudited Financial Report DATE: February 18, 2021

Motion: No motion needed. For discussion purposes only.

Overview:

Operating 2020 Revenue Expenses Surplus/ Deficit Reserves

General Fund - 01 $11.23 M $11.31 M -$81 K $9.4 M

Sewer Operating - 02 $3.67 M $3.37 M $303 K $4.2 M

Solid Waste - 12 $0.79 M $0.85 M -$56 K $0.42 M

Total $15.69 M $15.53 M $166 K $14.02 M

The numbers in the chart above are unaudited and will change when period 13 (or year-end adjustments) are made during the preparation of our audited financial statements. Expect some slight changes to both revenue and expenses.

General Fund Revenue: During our 2021 budget conversations, there was discussion of a potential small deficit for 2020 in the general fund (01). At this time, we continue to project a small deficit related to Covid impacts. While actuals very slightly exceeded budget for earned income tax (EIT) revenue, actuals for property tax collection, property transfer taxes, local services tax (LST), and building permits were down compared to budget.

Line Item 2020 Budget 2020 Unaudited Actuals Difference EIT $6,250,000 $6,268,764 +$18,764 Property Tax $1,191,000 $1,135,078 -$55,921 Property Transfer Tax $950,000 $780,224 -$169,775 LST $905,000 $848,915 -$56,084 Building Permits $1,000,000 $631,673 -$368,326

The property tax not paid in 2020 is still owed to the Township and has been forwarded to the County for delinquency collections, as is the typical year-end process. The differences for building permits and property transfer tax were related to the complete shut-down of construction and real estate at the beginning of the pandemic. Both line items have been healthy since re-opening. The Township saw inconsistent month-to-month variances between

2019 LST collection and 2020 – some up, some down – and most likely related to inconsistent work schedules for many retail and restaurant employees in the Township. When employees worked and got paid, the Township received LST. When their stores/restaurants were closed, no LST came into the Township. This contrasts with EIT monthly collections which trended up, compared to 2019, during most months of the pandemic.

Also of note is interest from investments (CDs, CP, and money markets) came in $61,000 less than budgeted due to the precipitous drop in interest rates during 2020 and revenue from vehicle code and ordinance violations was down due to changes in enforcement related to Covid precautions.

General Fund Expenses: From the start of the pandemic, all Township departments worked to contain costs and reduce expenditures in preparation of needing to mitigate decreases in revenue. A review of the unaudited actuals shows many expense items coming in at less than budgeted. Some areas saw significant savings: solicitors, overtime, some salary line items, codes third party inspections, planning contracted services, and fleet supplies.

General Fund Note: The general fund deficit showing on page 9 of the attached reports is $3.81M. That net amount reflects general fund reserves (not operating revenue) being used, as approved by the Board in December 2020. The reserves were used to fully fund the OPEB Trust ($800K) and transfer $3M from general fund reserves to the Public Service Fund (65) for planned future uses. The Township’s general fund does not have a separate reserve fund from which to show these uses of reserves. When the annual audit is complete, there will be a note included to discuss the planned use of reserves and mitigate the impact of readers seeing a large deficit.

Sewer Fund: The sewer fund was budgeted to end 2020 at $477K positive. Currently, the fund sits at $303K positive. We expect the revenue amount to increase as there are uncollected sewer fees ($216K in commercial billing for Q4 2020, billed in Feb 2021) that will be booked to 2020 as a period 13 entry in preparation of the annual audit work. The addition of the $216K is not anticipated to bring actuals in line with budgeted. Commercial sewer billing is based on water usage. With many retail locations, restaurants, and office locations closed or opened only on a limited basis, the actual billing amounts in 2020 were less than budgeted. As with the general fund’s investment income, the sewer fund’s investment income also took a hit and came in $31K less than budgeted. The salaries expense was over budget due to the reallocation of some Public Works staff.

Solid Waste Fund: The solid waste fund typically receives about $100K in “904 grant money” annually. The Township budgeted to receive $98K in 2020. However, due to the pandemic and extended grant report submission deadlines, the Township did not receive any grant money from the state this year. It is anticipated that the monies (approximately $93K) will be received in 2021.

The solid waste fund saw increased revenue from bag sales (+$43K over budget). Savings in general supplies were significant ($27K less than budget). However, solid waste tipping fees and hauler contracts were over budget by $26K, eliminating the gains due to general supply savings. The fund ended 2020 with a $56K deficit, but it’s important to note that had the grant money been received the fund would have been positive by ~$37K.

SUBJECT: Authorization to Advertise Update Township Code: Chapter 300 – Vehicles and Traffic

MOTION: To authorize advertisement of an amendment to Chapter 300, Article II, §300-8 and §300-11 of the West Whiteland Township Code to establish 25 MPH speed limit on select Township roads and to update the list of intersections presently controlled by “Stop” signs on Township roads.

In conjunction with the Police Department, the Department of Public Works reviewed sections of the Traffic and Vehicles chapter in the Township Code and is recommending changes.

Section 300-8, Speed Limits Established In response to concerns from residents, several roads have been determined to warrant a posting of a 25 MPH speed limit. The following streets will be added to the existing list of streets to be posted with a 25 MPH speed limit:

• Birchwood Drive • Fringetree Drive • Gypsie Lane • Pendula Court • Silverbell Court • Snowberry Way • Sweet Briar Road • Torrey Pine Court • Twin Oaks Lane • Whiteland Woods Boulevard

Section 300-11, Stop Intersections This update incorporates and updates the code to add locations where stop signs have been approved over time per land development plans and to address safety concerns as well as address grammatical changes. This update also incorporates the elimination of several stop sign controlled intersections that have been replaced with traffic signals. No new stop signs are proposed to be installed with this update. WEST WHITELAND TOWNSHIP CHESTER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA

Re: Franchise Renewal Notice Requesting Com111e11ce111e11t ofFormal Renewal Proceedings under Section 626 ofthe Co11111111nicatio11s Act

Dear Board of Supervisors:

Verizon Pennsylvania LLC ("Verizon") appreciates the opportunity to provide competitive cable service in West Whiteland Township ("Township"). Our records indicate that the cable television franchise granted by the Township and held by Verizon expires on December 12, 2021. Section 626 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, delineates formal procedures to be followed to renew cable television franchises that must be invoked 30 - 36 months prior to franchise expiration or ce1tain protections may be lost. As we are now in that time frame, by way of this letter Verizon gives notice that it seeks renewal of its cable television franchise and respectfully requests that the Township commence renewal proceedings pursuant to Section 626(a).

While Verizon seeks to preserve its rights under the formal renewal process, the Communications Act also authorizes franchise renewal through good faith, informal negotiations. Section 626(h) contemplates an alternative renewal process that also affords public notice and opportunity for comment but . does not require strict adherence to the substantive and procedural requirements outlined in the statute. I have enclosed a copy of Section 626 of the Communications Act for your review. The informal approach may be mutually beneficial. With the understanding that proceeding in this manner will not waive any of the rights of the parties under the formal process, Verizon is agreeable to discussing the terms of a renewal agreement with the Township on an informal basis at a mutually convenient time.

Verizon is proud to serve the residents of West Whiteland Township. We will contact you shortly to schedule a meeting to determine how best to proceed. We look forward to meeting with you and . working with you on the franchise renewal.

Very truly yours,

~ I Adrian Copiz

All similar violations or failures from the same factual events affecting multiple subscribers shall be assessed as a single violation, and a violation or a failure may only be assessed under any one of the above-referenced categories. Violations or failures shall not be deemed to have occurred or commenced until they are not cured as provided in Section 12.

12.3.3 Except as otherwise provided herein, any liquidated damages assessed pursuant to this section shall not be a limitation upon any other provisions of this Franchise and applicable law, including revocation.

12.4 Additional Enforcement Measures: Subject to applicable federal, state and local law, in the event the Township determines that the Franchisee is in default of any provision of this Franchise, the Township may:

12.4.1 Commence an action at law for monetary damages or seek other equitable relief; or

12.4.2 In the case of a substantial noncompliance with a material provision of this Franchise, seek to revoke the Franchise in accordance with Section 12.5 below.

A complete verbatim record and transcript shall be made of such hearing at the Franchisee’s sole cost and expense.

12.5.2 Following the public hearing, the Franchisee shall be provided up to thirty (30) days to submit its proposed findings and conclusions to the Township in writing, and thereafter the Township shall provide a written determination to the Franchisee setting forth: (i) whether an event of default has occurred under this Agreement; (ii) whether such event of default is excusable; and (iii) whether such event of default has been cured by the Franchisee. The Township shall also determine whether it will revoke the Franchise based on the information presented or, in the discretion of the Township, grant additional time to the Franchisee to effect any cure. If the Township determines that it will revoke the Franchise, the Township shall promptly provide the Franchisee with a written determination setting forth the Township’s reasoning for such revocation. The Franchisee may appeal such written determination of the Township to an appropriate court of competent jurisdiction, which will have the power to review the determination of the Township consistent with applicable law.

There were two amendments to the Township Zoning Ordinance: • Ordinance No. 453, passed on April 22, amended the provisions of the Town Center zoning district to include a Master Plan requirement for large projects. • Ordinance No. 457, passed on October 14, amended the provisions of the Neigh-borhood Commercial zoning district to allow institutional uses. On January 22, the Township passed Ordinance No. 451 to amend the open space provisions of the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance.

The Township successfully applied to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation for a grant of $940,000 from the Multi-Modal Fund toward the construction of the portion of the Ship Road Couplet and Chester Valley Trail Connector north of Lincoln Hwy.

From October 21 to 23, the Township hosted and participated in a Technical Assistance Panel by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) focused on the future of the Exton Crossroads area.

PLANNING COMMISSION The Planning Commission met eighteen times during 2020. The Commission re-elected Anita Nardone as chair and elected Mark Gordon as vice-chair at the reorganization meeting on January 7. Joe Altimari, Jeff Glisson, and Ray McKeeman also served as Commission members for the entire year. Glenn Marshall resigned from the Commission in March, with MaryFrances McGarrity and Dan Cote joining the Commission in March and April respectively.

The Commission reviewed six conditional use applications (five more than 2019), six land development plans (eight less than 2019), and four sketch plans (one more than 2019). In addition, conditional Use applications were submitted by Gravers Road Advertising (proposed billboard), Dunwoody Drive Outdoor (another proposed billboard), and PREIT (proposed 354- unit apartment building), but as of the end of the year none of them had made any presentation to the Planning Commission. On the following chart, “approved” in the “Status” column indicates the date of the meeting at which the Commission passed a motion recommending that

Planning & Zoning 1 2020 ANNUAL REPORT the Board of Supervisors approve the plan or conditional use application, not the date of approval by the Board.

HISTORICAL COMMISSION The Historical Commission met eleven times during 2020; with the April meeting being cancelled. At the reorganization meeting on January 13, the Commission elected John Kabli as Chair, Julie Bauer as the Vice-Chair, and Roberta Eckman as Secretary/Treasurer. Frank King, Joe McCormick, Jonathan Martin, and John Prendergast served as members for the entire year. There are currently no vacancies on the Commission.

Under the terms of the Township Zoning Ordinance, the Commission advises the Board of Supervisors and the Zoning Hearing Board regarding subdivisions, land developments, conditional use applications, and variance applications involving properties that have or are within 300 feet of an identified historic resource. The Commission also reviews applications for building permits, demolition permits, sign permits, and zoning permits for historic resources. Other Commission activity included the following.

• On December 14, the Commission selected three recipients for the 2020 Historic Preservation Awards for outstanding preservation and rehabilitation of historic resources: Buckman’s Ski & Showboard Shop/Thomas D. Trimble House (site #300), Chase Bank/Malvern Federal (site #302), and Williams Cabins/Icabod’s (site #348). The winners will receive their awards at an event in 2021 when it is safe to meet. This was the eighth consecutive year that the Commission has presented awards. • The Commission provided expert assistance to the owners of the following historic sites: the Morstein manor house (site #001), Morstein Station (site #003), Morstein gatehouse (site #004), Ryerss Infirmary for Dumb Animals (site #044), William Wells Farm house (site #054), Member house in Grove District (site #150), Ivy Cottage (site #205), Pickwick, John Kent Kane Jr. house (site #327), Lochiel Farm manor and tenant house (sites #339 & #341). • Commission members and Township Historical Consultant Phil Yocum visited the Arrandale Barn to assess its condition. The owner intends to sell the property, which includes two additional historic resources that will be used as offices. The Commission would like the barn to be reused, but if reuse proves infeasible then materials salvaged from the structure should be incorportated into any new construction. • Work continued on the update to “A History of West Whiteland,” the Township’s official document of historic resources, which started in 2019. Project consultant Commonwealth Hertitage Group created a GIS survey form for the survey update, which was approved by the PHMC. The Commission also assisted with revising the classification guidelines for historic resources. Due to COVID-related restrictions, the survey was delayed, and it will be necessary to secure an extension from the County. The Consultant anticipates completion of all deliverables – the updates to the survey, the historic resources map, and the “History” document along with support for creating an interactive mapping tool for public use – by summer 2021.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS – PLANNING ACTIVITY The authority to approve subdivision and land development plans and conditional use applications rests with the Board of Supervisors, which is advised by the Planning and Historical Commissions, a variety of consultants, and Staff. In 2020, the Board approved two conditional

Planning & Zoning 3 2020 ANNUAL REPORT use applications (five more than 2019) and four final land development plans (nine less than 2019).

The following chart lists all plans considered by the Board during 2020 in alphabetic order. The “type” column states how the plan was approved: our Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance deems the first plan submitted for a project to be a “preliminary” plan, but if it shows all the information required for a final plan the Board may approve it as such.

ZONING The Zoning Hearing Board (ZHB) held hearings for six variance applications, down four from the ten variance applications heard in 2019. Gravers Road Advertising submitted a variance application pursuant to a billboard project, but Staff deemed the application incomplete so the hearing had not been held by the end of 2020. • Church Farm School applied for relief from the sign regulations to allow a larger-than- permitted free-standing sign at the new campus entrance from Valley Creek Blvd. in O/L Office Laboratory district. The hearing was held on June 25, and the Board granted the variance requested with conditions.

• Skyway Outdoor applied for relief from the sign regulations to allow larger-than- permitted window signs for the Gabe’s store in Whiteland Towne Center in the TC Town Center district. The hearing was held on February 28, and the Board granted the variance requested with conditions. • Derek and Hannah Kimmel applied for a variety of dimensional variances to allow the construction of a pool at the rear of their residence at 511 Preston Ct. in the R-1 Residential district. The hearing was on October 8, and the Board granted the variances requested with conditions. • Louis and Elena LaFrance applied for a variety of dimensional variances to allow construction of an addition to an existing non-conforming residence at 936 Cedarwwod Ave. in the R-2 Residential district. The hearing was held on December 17, 2020, and the Board granted the variances requested with conditions. • Three Keys Storage applied for relief from the sign regulations to allow a larger sign area for a wall sign and a momument sign with an LED panel for a storage facility at 1464 Pottstown Pk. in the NC Neighborhood Commercial district.
