Formal opposition to a proposed land rezoning on Creek Road in Bethlehem city appears to be building in the Saucon Valley, as does resident dissatisfaction with it; dissatisfaction which apparently prompted the launch of a website/petition called “Save Creek Road.”
This Thursday, Feb. 13 at 5 p.m., the Bethlehem City Planning Commission is scheduled to hear a request by developer Abraham Atiyeh to have acreage he owns at 2105 Creek Road rezoned from rural residential (RR) to residential retirement complex (RRC).
One could say that Christmas came early for the volunteers and supporters of Dewey Fire Co. No. 1 Monday, when Hellertown Borough Council voted 5-2 to approve the purchase of a new specialized ladder truck at a cost of approximately $1.07 million.
Another assisted living building is proposed by Pennsylvania Venture Capital LLC for construction along Front Street, behind Saucon Valley Manor–an assisted living facility located at 1050 Main St., Hellertown.
A 16-unit apartment building located behind a Hellertown assisted living facility could be converted to housing for the elderly, and connected to the larger adjacent building that is already home to dozens of senior citizens.
