Haverford Township Zoning Hearing Board Meeting - October 1, 2026

The Haverford Township Zoning Hearing Board met on October 1, 2026, to consider zoning applications. In case Z26-25, Kathleen and Paul Florio sought a variance to replace an existing chain-link fence, including sections along Robin Lane and near the front yard, with a fence intended to improve safety and privacy for their children. The board closed the record, but the transcript does not capture a decision on this application; a decision was expected that evening or at the next scheduled meeting on November 5. In case Z26-26, Lawrence and Karen Moon requested relief to install retaining walls to address slope erosion and damage near their pool. The board approved the application 5–0, with conditions that the work be completed within one year, minimize disturbance and not change grades, and comply with the notes of testimony.

In case Z26-27, FBGM Holding LLC sought relief from parking-space stacking requirements for a property with two residential apartments. The applicant proposed using the existing driveway and garage rather than paving additional area; the owner agreed to maintain rental licenses and make the garage available exclusively to tenants. The board approved the variances unanimously, although the transcript cuts off before the conditions are stated. The board also approved the revised minutes of its September 17 meeting, 5–0. No government procurement activity was identified.
