South Park Township supervisors grant preliminary approval to controversial Sleepy Hollow housing development
SOUTH PARK TOWNSHIP, Pa. (KDKA) — South Park Township supervisors have given preliminary approval to a controversial housing development, voting against the recommendation of their own planning commission.
A developer wants to build more than 100 new homes along Sleepy Hollow Road, right next to the South Park Game Preserve.
The township supervisors attached a number of requirements for the developer before the project can move forward.
Neighbors have had problems with the idea for more than a year, going back to when a different developer walked away from a separate proposal on the same land.
Some people are worried about the traffic, safety, environmental issues, damage to their properties, and how the development could impact the 11 bison that live on the game preserve.
