Supervisors OK Preliminary Step in Bucks Road Development
The Piper Group, part of the same company that has built many of the newer homes in the Dublin area, has proposed building 32 new homes on a 90-acre site at 644 and 643 Bucks Road near the intersection of Bedminster Road that could be served by the same sewer system those Dublin area homes use. This is not a done deal, but the board of supervisors on Wednesday approved a plan to let the process go further.
According to the Intelligencer, "The supervisors' vote was not an approval of the application, but a formal action to allow the developer to begin the lengthy planning and development phase, which would include future public hearings for input from residents and potential neighbors."
