Township solicitor notes exhibits, public notice and deed in short-term rental hearing; board to decide later
Summary
The hearing officer entered the conditional-use application and public-notice documents into the record (applications, notices to adjacent landowners, proof of publication) and confirmed deed and tax-map details; the board will consider the application at its regular supervisors meeting.
The moderator marked a set of exhibits into the hearing record: Exhibit A (Smale’s conditional-use application dated 01/23/2026), Exhibit B (advertising notice), Exhibit C (proof of publication in the Leader Times on 03/05/2026), Exhibit D (notice to the applicant) and Exhibit E (letters to adjacent landowners listing specific Simon Road and Ice Pond Road addresses).
The moderator also confirmed property ownership and recording information: the record owner is Overlook Acquisitions LLC, which took title by deed dated Feb. 8, 2025 and recorded Feb. 24, 2025 (Deed book vol. 5840, page 456), and the tax-map number for the parcel was cited by the moderator. The moderator clarified that conditional-use approval is limited to the subject property and that any modification would require a new application.
The record was closed following public comment and the moderator said the supervisors will decide the application at their regular 6:00 p.m. meeting the same evening. If the board grants the conditional use, the township solicitor will prepare factual findings and include any conditions or limits the board imposes.
