Upper Hanover orders citation, cease‑and‑desist for motocross operation at Wentz Farm
Summary
Following complaints and an unresolved 2023 notice, the Board unanimously directed LTL to issue a citation and a cease‑and‑desist order for a motocross training and racing facility at Wentz Farm and asked LTL to verify any required PennDOT permits and review 3180 Fennel Road for similar violations.
The Upper Hanover Township Board unanimously directed its code‑enforcement representative, LTL, to issue a citation and a cease‑and‑desist order for what the Building Inspector described as an operating motocross training and racing facility at the Wentz Farm.
Meeting minutes state the Township previously sent a code enforcement notice following a 2023 event and received no response from the property owner. The Board also asked LTL to investigate whether a PennDOT permit should have been obtained for the events and to review the file for 3180 Fennel Road for similar enforcement action.
The action was recorded as a unanimous direction (4‑0). The minutes do not list a penalty amount or a hearing date; LTL was directed to proceed with enforcement steps and permit review.
