WEST MARLBOROUGH: Zoning changes and zoning permits

It was another quiet summer meeting of the West Marlborough Township supervisors the evening of August 4.
The supervisors held a brief hearing for and approved updates to the township's zoning ordinance. Supervisors' chairman Bill Wylie said the changes would make the township's code consistent with both the regional regulations created by West Marlborough, East Marlborough and Newlin townships (the Unionville Area Regional Comprehensive Plan) and new state regulations.
Mr. Wylie said he was pleased by the cooperation shown by the three townships in coordinating their regulations to the benefit of all: "There was a high degree of agreement," he said.
Zoning officer Al Giannantonio reported that township resident Derek Strine applied for five zoning permits for work at his Bartram Road farm: a landscaping wall, a run-in shed, a farm shop, windmills and a storage building. Permission is pending for all of them. Because he didn't obtain the permits before doing the work, he will have to pay double the usual fee to the township.
Conrad Somers also applied for zoning permission to add onto a building on his Mosquito Lane property. Permission for that addition is also pending.
In his July report, police officer Robert Clarke said he worked 40 hours and issued seven speeding tickets, one ticket for a stop-sign violation, two parking tickets, and five warnings.
