ADAMS TWP — The final approval of the proposed Hickory Glen planned residential development was denied for a second time on Monday night by the township supervisors.

The plan, which would see 50 homes placed on 60 acres on the Simmons farm off Pearce Road, was approved in April in its preliminary version.

But at the May 8 supervisors meeting, final approval was denied after continued complaints from neighbors of the proposed plan.

Weaver Master Builders, the developer of Hickory Glen, requested on Monday night that the supervisors reconsider their denial of the plan.

Brenda Sebring, the attorney for the developer, told the supervisors that because all conditions were met in the preliminary approval, the board must approve the final version.

“That being the case, final approval must be granted under your ordinance and pursuant to the Pennsylvania Municipalities Code,” Sebring said.

She stressed that the developer has met all requirements of the township’s PRD ordinance.
