Buckingham Township Board of Supervisors announced Monday that they have secured J.G. Petrucci’s, the Bucks County Airport Authority’s and No Buckingham Warehouse’s agreement to a stipulation that withdraws the warehouse use proposal in favor of a 42-home residential development of the land including new recreational facilities and community paths.
At the direction of the Board of Supervisors, the township’s legal team has been working on the stipulation since last summer, hammering out the details with the other parties, according to a news release from the township. Buckingham officials said the stipulation agreement is "a good outcome of residents and the Township working together."
A fully executed copy of the stipulation was finally obtained on Jan. 9, 2026 and filed with the court that afternoon, township officials said.
The court signed an order approving the stipulation and fixing it as an Order of Court on Jan. 12.
The ratification of the stipulation will be considered by the supervisors at the Jan. 28 meeting.
According to the township, the order and stipulation will end all litigation and permanently withdraw the warehouse application with prejudice.
The property, currently zoned for industrial use, will instead allow no more than 42 single-family homes, consistent with neighboring properties and preserve about 26 acres of open space, the township said.
The court does retain jurisdiction “to insure and enforce compliance by the Parties with the terms of this Stipulation.”
The residential application will have to go through land development approval before the township’s Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors.
