  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As we updated our current 1994 Comp. Plan some of our thoughts were: What are Bridgeton’s challenges since last Twp Comp. Plan of 1994? Should the Comp Plan Map/pg. 31 be changed?
How/in what way? -Ref. the CP Map…
What are Bridgeton Townships land use goals? -Ref. the CP Map…
What is our vision? 
“What do we want to be?” -Decide what we DON’T want in the plan. What maps should be included and available as digital, GIS and paper  

A few census stats from:  The U.S. Census, type “Bridgeton Township, Bucks County, PA” into their search bar. https://data.census.gov/cedsci/

Bridgeton Township Planning Commission Agenda for June 27, 2023

1) Call to order at 7:30 p.m. This Zoom meeting may be recorded.

2) Requests from the public to be heard:

3) Review and approval of the May 23, 2023 draft minutes.

4) Sketch Plan Request for TMP # 03-010-032, – 1379 Chestnut Ridge
Road, UBE, PA.; applicant- Linda Emerson.
>Distributed paperwork: Sketch Plan review by B. Twp. Engineer, Timothy
Fulmer, P.E.; and application form.

5) Updating the Bridgeton Twp. Comprehensive Plan Lead/Roger Keller:
Objective for this BTPC meeting: is to complete working toward coming to a consensus on a few last CP update items and moving the CP update forward.
>Requests, discussion of any changes and, or additions to the CP, or to
the ‘Summary’ and ‘Recommendations’ sections of the draft.
>Land Use
>BTPC motion to start the Comprehensive Plan 45-Day review
Going forward,- Per the Bucks County Planning Commission:
The Bridgeton Planning Commission can begin the adoption period once they
are satisfied with the plan. You can announce the start of the review period
at a BTPC meeting, and then the Bucks County Planning Commission will
work on sending letters out to the surrounding municipalities and school
district, notifying these entities of the review period.
The plan just needs to be posted for public viewing. Usually this is on the
municipality’s website with a physical copy also made available at the
municipal building. There is no legal requirement to advertise in the local
news source or on social media, but these extra steps can certainly be
taken

The township just needs to advertise the public meeting as it would any
other meeting and put the action item on the agenda. The date does not
need to be set when you announce the start of the review period. It would
make the most sense to just have the BCPC present the plan at your
regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting via Zoom as we have
been doing. The public meeting can occur within the 45-day review period.
So if you decide to start the review period at your May meeting, we could
meet in June to present the plan to the public.
