ADAMS TWP — Supervisors reviewed progress Monday night on the remaining corrective action placed last month on the Cypress Fields development.

Developers were told to complete a list of suggested improvements after residents voiced concerns about runoff from the development overflowing near a sewage station.

A cease-and-desist order levied on Cypress Fields in June was retracted July 8 after developer Terry Bove provided evidence of steps taken to stem water. At that time, the only caveat not fulfilled was replacing an 18-inch pipe with a 36-inch pipe. Supervisors lifted the order when Bove reported a family was prepared to close on a home.

Supervisor Russell Ford asked if final approval was given for the pipe. Plans were reviewed by the project contractor, Breakneck Creek Regional Authority representatives and township engineer Ron Olsen, according to Bove.

“We await Ron’s blessing to proceed,” he said.

Olsen said the plan was approved. Butler Conservation District also accepted the design.

“I’m still concerned,” resident Tina Wilson told supervisors. “Today, we did not have heavy, heavy rain, but we still are having the runoff.”

Bove reported controls installed near the station earlier this month are working.

“We have not noticed water leaving Cypress Fields,” Bove said.

“It’s better,” Wilson argued. “It is not eliminated.”

Bove concluded the new pipe will help drainage near the sewage station.

Wilson said she also is concerned the station has “increased dramatically in size.” Noise and fumes from the generator was a specific concern among residents at the July 8 meeting.

Supervisor Chairman Thomas Franceschina noted the sewage station is Breakneck’s jurisdiction, and Breakneck is considering ways to make the generator more neighborhood-friendly. For instance, the generator might be tested every two weeks instead of every week.

Wilson asked why residents were told in a public hearing that the station wouldn’t change in appearance when it has. Franceschina said such decisions were Breakneck’s.

“Then, what right at a public hearing do we have to hear that?” Wilson asked.

Ford asked if Wilson talked to Breakneck officials about her concerns. Wilson said she has and will continue to do so.
