The plans for the site.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\n

Bristol Township Council has given the green light to final land development plans for a self-storage facility in the Levittown section.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Council approved Bristol Realty Group\u2019s plan to build a self-storage facility on a portion of a 2.28-acre property at 1502 to 1510 Haines Road.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The property located at 1502 to 1510 Haines Road in Levittown has a history of automotive use and has served as a storage site for old cars.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Bristol Realty Group\u2019s plan for the site includes the construction of 113-unit self-storage units, which will be placed behind existing commercial establishments, including Windsor Pharmacy and Ponticelli Pizzeria and Restaurant.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Greg Elko from Langan Engineering, said the goal is to transform existing outdoor storage areas into multiple self-storage buildings.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re cleaning up the property by removing all the outdoor storage in the back and replacing it with a self-storage facility spread across several buildings,\u201d Elko explained.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The site will see improvements including new pavement, clearly marked parking spaces, signs, and striping, Elko said.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As part of the project, one entrance to the property will close, and another will be consolidated, according to the plans.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Elko mentioned that finalizing the plans took longer than expected due to negotiations with neighboring property owners over a paper street running through the site. They reached an agreement to swap land, allowing the full right-of-way to become part of the Bristol Realty Group property.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The council also approved a waiver request for stormwater management on the site.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Elko explained that the topography made it impossible to include an emergency spillway for a proposed rain garden.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve analyzed storms up to the 100-year event. The water only ponds 2 feet deep,\u201d Elko said. \u201cFor a 100-year storm, there\u2019s a grate at the outlet of the rain garden at that 100-year elevation. It essentially acts like a spillway.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When asked about the timeline, Elko estimated that construction could kick off in mid-2025, likely in late spring or early summer.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
