After the Board of Supervisors argued time and again that a oversized house (by the zoning calculations) built on preserved ground (development rights paid for with YOUR $102,000 tax dollars) was completely within the zoning, they pushed though an ordinance nicknamed “The Pam Brown Ordinance”, after the owner of the property. In an article written by the Daily Local News on April 16, 2012, it states the following:

 

“Township supervisors, however, call the criticism a non-issue and note the ordinance was adopted long after the land-use approvals were granted to the homeowner.

 

And because no one objected four years ago, the matter is irrelevant today, township officials say.”

 

One, that ordinance was NOT adopted BEFORE the approvals, a blatant lie. Two, No one knew how big the house would be because nobody could see the house until it was built. That is why residents are told there are Zoning and Building Inspectors, to PROTECT the public and enforce the law. Unless you are one of Ken Miller's supporters. Here is the article:

And here is the discussion with a resident in which they deny there was a problem:

So why did they change the ordinance if what was done was legal? Because it wasn't. This new ordinance simply protects her if the issue went to court. That, Ladies and Gentlemen, is the very definition of “SPECIAL TREATMENT”.

 

Supervisor David Brown claims that "a fair reading of the (covenant) language makes it pretty clear that Pam retained the right that any landowner has, of constructing accessory dwellings...".  Really? Here is the agreement. It says exactly the opposite. Read the entire section:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She sold ALL of her Development rights, therefore no other dwelling could be built,even an accessory dwelling. Would you like to see the entire document? Here it is.
