Business from the Floor:

Property owners Bryon and Peggy Grim questioned Supervisors about their property on Roland Road.

They want to get a building right for their property, which when they purchased it clearly stated no building right was available. The Supervisors told them they have the right to apply for a Zoning Hearing but that doesn’t mean that they will get the approval for a building right. Peggy asked if a pole building or a barn could be place on the property and the Solicitor told them they could put anything for agricultural, not for commercial or residential.

Old Business:

Supervisor Harlen Anderson, Jr. reported that he contacted Resident Robert Kinney informing him that the township feels his property is and has always been in Washington Township. He asked the Solicitor to send Mr. Kinney a letter informing him of the township’s position.

On the updated zoning ordinances, Solicitor Myers would like to set a time to meet with the Supervisors to go over her comments after reviewing the draft ordinances.

New Business:

Ag Security Application for Robert & Sharon Baumgardner for 34, 36, 38 Big Dam Rd, was received in the office October 17, 2012. No action will be taken since they missed the June 1 deadline. 180 days will be up on April 17, 2013. Automatic inclusion will take place then.
