UNION TWP. — The Board of Supervisors has approved the sewage planning module for 226 camp sites proposed for the Liberty Bell Motorsports Park and Campground.
Developer Louis Mascaro has been working with the township for 10 years on land development and zoning issues to build the park and campground. The Motorsports Park will include four racing circuits — two half-mile long tracks that can operate independently or together for a total of .84 miles, and two, 40-foot-wide, 1.5-mile courses that will total 3.11 miles.
Mascaro said the campground will be built on the north side of Route 724 along the Schuylkill River Heritage Corridor and will intersect the Thun Trail, managed by the Schuylkill River Greenway Association.
The Birdsboro Municipal Authority has already approved the sewage planning module that will convey sewage from the campground into Birdsboro on property that is parallel to the Greenway property.
Mascaro expects Liberty Bell to generate 633 jobs as well as “almost $92 million of output of goods and services, over $27 million of employee compensation, and $972,000 of indirect business tax revenue within Berks County.�?
