The Commission has a strong preference for Comments and questions to be communicated before the meeting to facilitate the discussion. However, email comments to the same email address - tcpacomment001@gmail.com - will be monitored during the hearing and read aloud. The chair shall announce when those emails will start to be accepted and when that period will end.

The hearing is to consider an amendment to an approved general development plan (GDP) application for approximately 208.93 acres. The area is currently zoned R-1 Low Density Residential District and the first phase of the development consisting of 24 single family residential lots has been platted. The current general development plan consists of 24 additional residential lots for a total of 48. The amendment, if approved, would increase the additional lots to 42 increasing the total number of lots by 18 for a total of 66. Rochester Township recently completed the Environmental Assessment Worksheet process determining that sufficient measures were in place to mitigate any environmental affects this increase may have. The lots would be served by individual sewage treatment systems and private shared wells
