FILLING OPERATIONS CONTINUE IN SANATOGA – A steady stream of trucks and tractors continued Tuesday morning (Dec. 15, 2009) to haul, dump and spread earthen fill onto vacant property being considered for development at the Sanatoga interchange of U.S. Route 422, on East High Street just west of the Turkey Hill convenience market at Rupert Road. Neighbors have complained to the Lower Pottsgrove (PA) Township Board of Commissioners about the growing plateau of fill material that in some places is now more than 20 feet high. Residents who appeared at recent board meetings claim the pile is at least unsightly, and said they fear it may also be unsanitary. The township engineering firm, Bursich Associates, said it had tested the fill content for contamination and found nothing troublesome. A follow-up report on the developer’s plans for the pile is anticipated during Thursday’s (Dec. 17) final board meeting of the year.
