Zoning board tables sign-company variance after applicant fails to appear
Summary
The Zoning Hearing Board moved Lititz Sign Co.'s variance request to October after no representative appeared; the board encouraged a fee for future no-shows.
The Silver Spring Township Zoning Hearing Board tabled a variance application from Lititz Sign Co. after the applicant failed to appear at the Sept. 8, 2025 hearing.
Chairman Donald Franklin announced that the applicant did not attend and the board moved the item to the end of the agenda in case a representative arrived. After hearing other matters, the board voted to table Variance 2025-14 until the October Zoning Hearing Board meeting; Chairman Franklin also encouraged the board to consider a subsequent fee for applications that are not represented at a hearing.
The minutes do not record testimony or evidence for the application because no representative appeared. The motion to table was recorded as made by Chairman Franklin and seconded by Board Member Darrell McMillan.
The record does not specify whether the board formally set a fee or the amount; any follow-up action by staff or formal fee schedule changes were not recorded in the minutes.
