The record, newest first

  1. DEP's tracker lists the project as proposed, with no permit applications received. (Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Oct. 31, 2026; Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Oct. 31, 2026)

  2. About 150 people attended a NorthPoint information session in Tresckow; the company said it would seek a zoning overlay rather than a rezoning, so the land would keep its conservation zoning if the project did not proceed. (Times News (tnonline.com), Oct. 1, 2025)

  3. Banks Township supervisors confirmed NorthPoint had bought about 1,400 acres on Tresckow Mountain; most is zoned conservation. (Times News (tnonline.com), Aug. 20, 2025)

Conflicts and open questions

  • Acreage differs: 1,400 acres (August 2025 report) vs. 1,200 acres (October 2025 report).
