A. 
Copies of this chapter shall be available on request, at cost, for the use of any person who desires information concerning subdivision standards and procedures in effect. All applicants are encouraged to meet with the Township Planning Commission to discuss and review tentative plans and/or the provisions of this chapter.
B. 
No plans, except sketch plans, will be considered by the Township Planning Commission unless the applicant submits the plans to the Township Secretary on or before 2:00 p.m. of the Tuesday prior to the regular planning commission meeting one month prior to the regularly scheduled meeting of the Township Planning Commission at which such plan will be considered.
[Amended 11-6-2012 by Ord. No. 63]
A. 
Whenever a subdivision of land or land development is desired in Carroll Township, Perry County, Pennsylvania, a plat of the layout of each subdivision or land development shall be proposed, filed and processed with the Carroll Township Planning Commission, Perry County Planning Commission and the Carroll Township Board of Supervisors in accordance with the requirements of this chapter, as revised to date.
B. 
The applicant (subdivider or developer) shall submit copies of the plans to the Township Secretary/Treasurer and the Secretary/Treasurer shall distribute the required number of copies to the agencies concerned as provided for in this article. If the applicant makes substantial revisions in their plans after they have been approved in the preliminary form, such revised plans shall be treated as preliminary plans when resubmitted. Upon approval of the preliminary plans, the applicant shall submit final plans to the Township and the Township shall distribute the required number of copies to the various agencies as provided in this article. Mobile home park plans shall be reviewed in the same manner as subdivision and land development plans.
A. 
From the time an application for approval of a plat, whether preliminary or final, is duly filed as provided in this chapter, and while such application is pending approval or disapproval, no change or amendment of Chapter 138, Zoning, this chapter or other governing ordinance or plan shall affect the decision on such application adversely to the applicant and the applicant shall be entitled to a decision in accordance with the provisions of the governing ordinances or plans as they stood at the time the application was duly filed. In addition, when a preliminary application has been duly approved, the applicant shall be entitled to final approval in accordance with the terms of the approved preliminary application as hereinafter provided. However, if an application is properly and finally denied, any subsequent application shall be subject to the intervening change in governing regulations. When an application for approval of a plat, whether preliminary or final, has been approved or approved subject to conditions acceptable to the applicant, no subsequent change or amendment in this chapter or other governing ordinance or plan shall be applied to affect adversely the right of the applicant to commence and to complete any aspect of the approved development in accordance with the terms of such approval within five years from such approval. Where final approval is preceded by preliminary approval, the five-year period shall be counted from the date of the preliminary approval. In the case of any doubt as to the terms of a preliminary approval, the terms shall be construed in the light of the provisions of the governing ordinances or plans as they stood at the time when the application for such approval was duly filed. Where the applicant has substantially completed the required improvements as depicted upon the final plat within the aforesaid five-year limit, or any extension thereof as may be granted by the governing body, no change of municipal ordinances or plans enacted subsequent to the date of filing of the preliminary plat shall modify or revoke any aspect of the approved final plat pertaining to density, lot, building, street or utility location. In the case of a preliminary plat calling for the installation of improvements beyond the five-year period, a schedule shall be filed by the applicant with the preliminary plat delineating all proposed sections as well as deadlines within which applications for final plat approval of each section are intended to be filed.
B. 
Such schedule shall be updated annually by the applicant on or before the anniversary of the preliminary plat approval, until final plat approval of the final section has been granted and any modification in the aforesaid schedule shall be subject to approval of the governing body in its discretion. Each section in any subdivision or land development, except for the last section, shall contain a minimum of 25% of the total number of dwelling units as depicted on the preliminary plan, unless a lesser percentage is approved by the governing body in its discretion. Provided the landowner has not defaulted with regard to or violated any of the conditions of the preliminary plat approval, including compliance with applicant's aforesaid schedule of submission of final plats for the various sections then the aforesaid protection afforded by substantially completing the improvements depicted upon the final plat within five years shall apply and for any section or sections, beyond the initial section, in which the required improvements have not been substantially completed within said five-year period the aforesaid protection shall apply for an additional term or terms of three years from the date of final plat approval for each section. Failure of landowner to adhere to the aforesaid schedule of submission of final plats for the various sections shall subject any such section to any and all changes in Chapter 138, Zoning, this chapter and other governing ordinances enacted by the municipality subsequent to the date of the initial preliminary plan submission before acting on an application, the Board of Supervisors may hold a public hearing thereon after public notice.
Any subdivision or land development which contain no more than 10 lots or 10 dwelling units may be reviewed and acted upon as a final plan without the necessity of prior preliminary plan approval. Such determination shall be made by the Carroll Township Planning Commission based upon the following consideration:
A. 
The proposed subdivision or land development does not involve site and related improvements to the extent that a detailed review by the Township necessitates processing initially as a preliminary plan.
B. 
The proposed subdivision or land development does not require the review and approval of agencies and/or jurisdictions other than the Township; where in the opinion of the Township such review may not be completed within the time period set forth in this chapter.
C. 
The proposed subdivision or land development complies with the applicable provisions of this chapter.
A. 
Prior to the submission of preliminary plans, developers may, at their option, submit a sketch plan to the Carroll Township Planning Commission. This will enable the Commission to review the proposal and to make any suggestions or discuss with the developer any proposed plans or factors that may affect their subdivision or development. Submission and review of a sketch plan shall not constitute official submission of a plan to the Township or official action on the plan by the Township.
B. 
The sketch plan shall consist of the following:
(1) 
An approximate key map showing the generalized location of the tract and adjacent streets.
(2)

(6) 
Consideration of the various permits and requirements of various governmental agencies and sources of information for each.
D. 
The overall sketch plan will be used by the Township and developer to assist in evaluating further subdivision and/or land development submittals of the applicant. When on the recommendation of the Planning Commission and action of the Board of Supervisors it is deemed that further subdivisions or land developments depart substantially from the concepts presented in the overall sketch plan, a revised sketch plan should be prepared prior to submittal of any future plans, by the applicant.
A. 
On or before 2:00 p.m. of the Tuesday prior to the regular planning commission meeting one month prior to the regularly scheduled meeting of the Township Planning Commission at which such plan will be considered, the applicant shall submit two copies of the application for review of preliminary subdivision plan and five copies of the preliminary plan to the Carroll Township Secretary/Treasurer who shall date and initial each copy of the preliminary plan on the date received. The preliminary plan shall be drawn by a registered professional land surveyor. It shall be the responsibility of the applicant to insure that the preliminary plan meets all the requirements of this chapter and that any coordination with public or private utilities or service agencies is accomplished. All revised plans/applications shall be submitted not less than nine regular business days prior to a regularly scheduled meeting of the Carroll Township Planning Commission; the applicant shall submit two copies of the revised application for review of preliminary subdivision plan and five copies of the revised preliminary plan to the Carroll Township Secretary/Treasurer who shall date and initial each copy of the revised preliminary plan on the date received.

[Amended 6-5-2012 by Ord. No. 61]
(b) 
The Board of Supervisors may waive or modify, in whole or in part, the requirement for a traffic impact study or any of the requirements and standards set forth in § 120-17C(7). In considering any waiver or modification, the Board of Supervisors may consider, in its discretion, but is not limited to considering, such factors as:
[1] 
Location of the subject property;
[2] 
Proximity to intersections and major roadways;
[3] 
Projected increase of traffic volume on road system;
[4] 
Number and location of proposed accesses; and
[5] 
Nature of the use proposed.
(c) 
Request for a waiver or modification shall include Subsection C(7)(d)[4][a][i] through [vi] and justifications for the request.
(d) 
A full traffic impact report shall include the following:
[1] 
Definition of influence area.
[a] 
An influence area must be defined which connects the development to, and coordinates with, arterial streets. A market study can be used to establish the limits of an influence area, if available. If no market study is available, an influence area shall be estimated based on a reasonable documented estimate. The influence area can also be based on a reasonable maximum convenient travel time to the site or delineating area boundaries based on locations of competing developments.
[b] 
Other methods, such as using trip data from an existing development with similar characteristics, or using an existing origin-destination survey of trips within the area, can be used in place of the influence area to delineate the boundaries of the impact. The method used to determine the influence area shall be determined by the Township.
[2] 
Area of traffic impact report. The traffic impact study area shall be based on the characteristics of the influence area. The intersections and roadway segments to be included in the study shall be adjacent to the site or impacted by vehicular traffic generated by the development of the site. The intersections and roadway segments shall be determined by the Township and Township Engineer. In the absence of an agreement, the applicant may be required to analyze additional intersections and/or roadway segments within the study area.
[3] 
Preparation by Transportation Engineer required. When it has been determined that a traffic impact study is required for a proposed site development, it shall be the responsibility of the developer to ensure the study is conducted and submitted in accordance with these regulations. The traffic impact study and final report shall be prepared under the supervision of a registered professional engineer who possesses a license issued by the Pennsylvania State Registration Board for Professional Engineers. The final traffic impact study must have the seal of the supervising engineer on it when submitted.
[4] 
Documentation required. A traffic impact study shall be prepared to document the purpose, procedures, findings, conclusions, and recommendations of the report.
[a] 
The documentation for a traffic impact study shall include, at a minimum:
[i] 
Executive summary.
[ii] 
Report purpose and objectives. Description of the site and study area.
[iii] 
Existing conditions in the area of the development.
[iv] 
Recorded or approved nearby development within the traffic impact study area.
[v] 
Trip generation, trip distribution and modal split.
[vi] 
Projected future traffic volumes (build and no-build).
[vii] 
A description of the change in roadway operating conditions resulting from the development traffic.
[viii] 
Recommendations for site access and transportation improvements needed to maintain traffic flow to, from within, and past the site at an acceptable and safe level of service.
[ix] 
Supplemental studies (i.e., gap, queue, left-turn, etc.).
[x] 
Improvements to be implemented by the applicant.
[xi] 
Appendix: Include data collection summaries, detailed capacity analysis worksheets, etc.
[xii] 
Signed and sealed by professional engineer.
[b] 
The analysis shall be presented in a straightforward and logical sequence. It shall lead the reader step-by-step through the various stages of the process and resulting conclusions and recommendations.
[c] 
Recommended improvements to the study area network to include preliminary cost estimates, proposed implementation schedule and expected levels of service for the recommended network. Any off-site improvements which are to be constructed shall be noted.
[d] 
The recommendations shall specify the time period within which the improvements shall be made (particularly if the improvements are associated with various phases of the development construction), and any monitoring of operating conditions and improvements that may be required. Monitoring of constructed improvements shall be in accordance with PennDOT regulations. All monitoring shall be performed by the developer and coordinated with the Township.
[e] 
Data shall be presented in tables, graphs, maps, and diagrams.
[f] 
The executive summary shall be provided at the beginning of the traffic impact study and include one or two pages that concisely summarize the purpose, conclusions, and recommendations.
[g] 
The traffic impact study shall analyze and recommend programs to reduce vehicular trips. Also, support for, and programs to encourage use of, alternate modes of transportation, including carpooling, transit walking, and cycling, shall be considered in the study. The site design shall be shown to maximize potential public transportation usage to and from the development, such as providing adequate turning radii at access points to allow a bus to enter the development. Bus signs and shelters shall be designated where appropriate as determined by the Township.
[5] 
Data collection. Existing twenty-four-hour and peak-hour traffic volume data, including weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays, for all streets which provide direct access to the proposed development and for arterial streets and collector streets which will serve the proposed development, as well as any major intersection within the traffic impact area. A major intersection shall be any intersection involving at least one major collector street or minor collector street as designated by the Township.
[6] 
Horizon year. The traffic forecasts shall be prepared for the anticipated opening year of the development, assuming full buildout and occupancy. This year shall be referred to as the "horizon year" in the remainder of this Ordinance No. 59. If access is proposed onto a state highway, an analysis shall be conducted at a period of 10 years beyond the opening date.
[7] 
Nonsite traffic estimates. Estimates of nonsite traffic shall be made and will consist of traffic generated by all other developments within the traffic impact study area for which preliminary or final plans have been approved. Nonsite traffic may be estimated using historic trends for the roadway or the current edition of Pennsylvania Traffic Data.
[8] 
Trip generation rates required. The traffic impact study shall include a table showing the categories and quantities of land uses, with the corresponding trip generation rates or equations (with justification for selection of one or the other), and resulting number of adjacent street peak trips (a.m. and p.m.), generated peak-hour trips, and total daily trips. The trip generation rates used must be either from the latest edition of Trip Generation by ITE or from a local study of corresponding land uses and quantities. All sources must be referenced in the study. The reasoning and data used in developing a trip generation rate for special/unusual generators must be justified and explained in the study and approved by the Township.
[9] 
Consideration of pass-by trips. If a reduction in the site-generated traffic volumes is a consideration for the land use in question, studies and interviews at similar land uses in similar areas must be conducted or referenced justifying the pass-by reduction to be applied.
[10] 
Rate sums. Any significant difference between the sums of single-use rates and proposed mixed-use estimates must be justified in the report. If a reduction in the overall trip generation of a mixed-use development was proposed due to internalization, documentation shall be provided.
[11] 
Estimates of trip distribution required.
[a] 
Trip distribution can be estimated using any one of the following three methods:
[i] 
Analogy.
[ii] 
Trip distribution model.
[iii] 
Surrogate data.
[b] 
Whichever method is used, trip distribution must be estimated and analyzed for the horizon year. A multiuse development may require more than one distribution and coinciding assignment for each phase (for example, residential and retail phases on the same site). Consideration must also be given to whether site-generated inbound and outbound trips will have similar distributions.
[12] 
Trip assignments.
[a] 
Assigns must be made considering logical routing, available roadway capacities, left turns and intersections, and projected (and perceived) minimum travel times. In addition, multiple paths shall often be assigned between origins and destinations to achieve realistic estimates, rather than assigning all of the trips to the route with the shortest travel time. The assignments must be carried through the external site access points and in large projects (those producing 200 or more additional peak direction trips to or from the site during the development's peak hour) through the internal roadways. When the site has more than one access driveway, logical routing and possibly multiple paths shall be used to obtain realistic driveway volumes. The assignment shall reflect conditions at the time of the analysis. Assignments can be accomplished either manually or with applicable computer models.
[b] 
If a thorough analysis is required to account for pass-by trips, the following procedure shall be used:
[i] 
Determine the percentage of pass-by trips in the total trips generated.
[ii] 
Estimate a trip distribution for the pass-by trips.
[iii] 
Perform two separate trip assignments, based on the new and pass-by trip distribution.
[iv] 
Combine the pass-by and new trip assignment.
[13] 
Total traffic impacts.
[a] 
Traffic estimates for any site with current traffic activity must reflect not only new traffic associated with the site's redevelopment but also the trips subtracted from the traffic stream because of the removal of a land use. The traffic impact report shall clearly depict the total traffic estimate and its components.
[b] 
Evaluations shall include warrants for pavement widenings, turn lane(s) and signalization, where applicable. Procedures and final study requirements shall adhere to PennDOT Publication 282, as amended.
[c] 
Analysis for safety and capacity sufficiency.
[i] 
The study area roadway network is to be analyzed for safety and capacity sufficiency for three separate conditions: 1) existing network conditions, 2) future network conditions without the proposed development, and 3) future network conditions with the proposed development. For each of the three conditions, the following analyses shall be completed:
[A] 
Mainline ADT volumes and turning movement volumes for all intersections within the report area will be determined for the a.m. peak hour, if other than either the a.m. or p.m. peak hour of the network.
[B] 
The effectiveness of the traffic signal control at all intersections will be evaluated by approach in terms of vehicle stops and delays.
[C] 
Gap studies will be conducted in accordance with standards established by the ITE at the proposed site access points to evaluate the need for signal control, turn prohibitions or additional site access points to reduce the left-turn volume from the site driveways if unsatisfactory levels of service are achieved.
[D] 
Queue length studies will be completed in accordance with standards established by the ITE to evaluate the potential for a backup of traffic from controlled intersections which could impact other intersections, including access points to the proposed development.
[ii] 
The analysis of the existing roadway and intersection conditions in the study area will be based upon the current geometric conditions and traffic control operations. This analysis will serve as a basis for determining the current adequacy of the roadway network and to document any deficiencies.
[iii] 
The analysis of the future conditions without the proposed development will document the adequacy of the study area network to accommodate traffic in the horizon year(s) without the proposed development.
[iv] 
The analysis of the future conditions with the proposed development will document the adequacy of the study area network to accommodate traffic in the horizon year(s) with the proposed development.
[14] 
Required levels of service. The recommendations of the traffic impact study shall provide safe and efficient movement of traffic to and from, and within and past, the proposed development, while minimizing the impact to nonsite trips. The current levels of service must be maintained if they are C or D, they shall not deteriorate to worse than C if they are currently A or B and shall not be improved to a D if they are E or F. In addition, there shall be no increase in delay if an unsatisfactory level of service cannot be improved.
[15] 
Capacity analysis.
[a] 
Capacity analysis must be performed at each off-site street intersection and project site access intersection locations (signalized and unsignalized) within the study area. In addition, analyses must be completed for roadway segments affected by the proposed site traffic within the study area. These may include such segments as weaving, sections, ramps, internal site roadways, parking facility access points, and reservoirs for vehicles queuing off site and on site. Other locations may be deemed appropriate depending on the situation.
[b] 
The recommended level of service shall be computed in accordance with the Highway Capacity Manual, Special Report 209, as amended, published by the Transportation Research Board, or any subsequent revision of such manual. The most current version of the Highway Capacity Software shall be used.
[c] 
The operational analyses in the Highway Capacity Manual shall be used for analyzing existing conditions, traffic impacts, access requirements, or other future conditions for which traffic, geometric and control parameters can be established.
[d] 
In developing the proposed improvements, the study preparer is to consider the following:
[i] 
All highway capacity evaluations shall consider not only the overall intersection level of service and delay, but also evaluate each approach or lane group and movement to identify any substandard values which need to be improved.
[ii] 
For locations where the level of service of the horizon year without proposed development is F, the improvements shall provide an estimated delay which will be no worse than the delay for the horizon year without the proposed development.
[iii] 
Where new intersections are being established to serve as access to the proposed development, these intersections must be designed to at least operate at Level of Service C or better.
[iv] 
For access points to the proposed development which are not proposed to be controlled by traffic signal, an analysis will be completed to determine the design details for a separate left-turn lane on the adjoining highway.
[v] 
For access points to the proposed development where traffic signal control is being proposed, a traffic signal warrant analysis shall be performed in accordance with the requirements of PennDOT's Publication 201, Engineering and Traffic Studies, and PennDOT's Publication 149, Traffic Signal Design Handbook. If the analysis warrants turning lanes, the type of signal phasing required shall be determined.
(8) 
Where 100 or more lots or dwelling units are proposed in a subdivision or land development, evidence in writing from the applicable school district that the district has reviewed and commented on the proposed development. The school district shall be given 30 days to respond after being notified by certified mail.
(9) 
Where wetlands are identified within the proposed subdivision or land development a letter shall be provided from the Pennsylvania Natural Diversity Inventory Office stating:
(a) 
The presence or absence of critical or important wildlife habitat.
(b) 
The adequacy of measures proposed to protect threatened plants, animals, or their habitat.
(c)
