PRC Helps Residents Win Standing On Billboard Issue

The PA Resources Council, in partnership with Preserve Our Pennsylvania Towns, has had its first court victory related to billboard regulation.
            In the case "Bartkowski Investment Group vs. Springfield Township Zoning Hearing Board", the court ruled in favor of two residents remaining as interveners in the case opposing the construction of billboards near their homes. This allows these residents to participate in the case to protect their interests because of their proximity to the site. 
            PRC along with POPT has encouraged impacted residents to become a party to the Zoning Board hearings. This decision supports our message to ensure that residents' rights are fully protected.
            For more information please contact Carol Butler of PRC at 610-353-1555 x232 or send email to: butler@prc.org.
