ADAMS TWP — Township residents again discussed ongoing slope ordinance revisions at a planning commission meeting Wednesday evening.

Planning commission chairman Martin McKinney emphasized that amid debate and input from the public, the commission hopes to come to a solution that works for everyone.

“What we're trying to do is balance the needs — because we don't live in a flat zone — of when someone wants to develop property, how it can be done safely for the development and for the adjoining property owners,” McKinney said. “There's some back-and-forth questions for that because not everybody agrees on all the details of how it works. We're working really hard to try and balance it to some degree to provide appropriate information and appropriate protection.”

Township solicitor Sean Gallagher explained several revisions in the current iteration of the ordinance, dated Nov. 15.
