ommissión
The Lititz Planning. Commis­sion,
. at its meeting Tuesday
night, instructed Boro Manager
R. Keith Armstrong to make
a study of.a ll .the alleys in the
borough. ........
.T h e purpose of the study is
two-fold — first, to determine
if the present six miles of
alleys should be maintained;
and second to determine if ad­ditional
alleys, of which there
are three miles, should, be
taken over by the borough for
maintenance. Some of these
'alleys are not actually opened,
b u t are on the borough map.
Armstrong asked the Com­mission
to help him establish
criteria to determine if more
alleys should be added to the
list of those maintained by tne
borough. Some of these criteria
are: whether the alley con-1
nects with streets a t both ends,
whether it is straight, the
number of garages it serves,
its width, whether or not it
has water and sewer lines,
and if there are homes and
apartments in the alley.
The Commission has been
studying annexation proce­dures,
and will recommend to
Council a policy on annexation.
They will define the proce­dures
which property owners
must follow if they want to
be annexed, and will establisn
requirements for streets, 'side­walks,
sewer, water and other
regulations. .
In response to a request by
by borough council for the
commission to study private
