Township Supervisors Meet Tonight Plus Cinco de Mayo Around the Bend
Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 5, 2026
Happy Tuesday—if you’re heading toward the Township building tonight, the parking lot might be a bit tighter than usual for the supervisors' meeting, but the mild spring breeze makes it a great night for a walk anyway. It is a perfect day to grab a seat outside for lunch before the evening clouds roll in.
📰 The Lead
The Lower Southampton Township Board of Supervisors convenes tonight at 7:30 PM, and the agenda carries significant weight for the future of the Bustleton Pike corridor. Officials are expected to review the final architectural renderings for the proposed "Gateway Project," a mixed-use development aimed at revitalizing the area near the Trevose train station.
The plan includes a blend of luxury apartments and ground-floor retail space designed to encourage foot traffic and support local small businesses. While some residents have expressed concerns regarding increased traffic flow at the intersection of Bustleton and Philmont Avenue, proponents argue the project is essential for modernizing the township’s tax base. Tonight’s session will include a public comment period, offering a final chance for neighbors to weigh in before the board moves toward a formal vote on the zoning variances required for the project to break ground this autumn.

📸 Spotlight & Story
- Dolphin Swim Club Tucked away off Philmont Avenue, this private club has served as the unofficial headquarters for local summers since the early 1960s. While the pools don't officially open until Memorial Day weekend, the grounds are currently a hive of activity as volunteers and staff prep the lanes for the "Dolphins" competitive swim team. Did you know the club was originally founded by a group of local families who wanted a community-owned space rather than a commercial park? That cooperative spirit remains today, making it one of the few remaining member-owned recreation spots in the immediate area.
