New London United MethodistChurch
Final Subdivision Plan to add under 10,000 square feet from Church to New London Automotive property. Mr. Ragan advised that it is merely a land swap to give New London Automotive a little more room. They are asking for 5 waivers and Mr. Ragan had no objections with any of the waivers. Mr. Ragan would like to total acreage, setback and right of ways (per New London Township Ordinance). He would like to see setbacks for both parcels so that the Township can see how much is there once it is combined. Ken Crossan was unable to attend but would like to move forward and obtain conditional approval. There was discussion regarding future plans for New London Automotive and Mr. Ragan suggested the issue be revisited next month and to have representatives from both the Church and New London Automotive attend next month’s meeting, if possible, to determine both side’s intention. Mr. Ragan suggested we table the issue for tonight and put it on the 8/28/08 workshop meeting Agenda.
