Mount Airy driving-range request returns to board after hearing on conservation easement
Summary
A public hearing on Mount Airy #1 LLC’s plan to reestablish a driving range under the property’s conservation covenant was admitted into the record and tabled for further consideration; the board set the item for discussion on Aug. 17, 2026.
A public hearing on a request by Mount Airy #1 LLC to reestablish and refurbish a previously existing golf driving range was opened at 6:30 p.m. and recorded by a court reporter. Solicitor John C. Prevoznik said the request seeks an interpretation of allowable uses under the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants (the Deed of Conservation, recorded in Monroe County Record Book 213-118, page 8549).
Tina Transue, Paradise Township executive secretary, testified to the notice, posting and the correctness of Township Exhibits 1–5. Attorney Jeffrey Belardi and Brian Miller, assistant general manager for Mount Airy Casino, described the applicant’s intent to refurbish the driving range; A. J. Magnotta of LaBella Associates testified about aerial imagery and site plans and reviewed Mount Airy Exhibits labeled 2–4. Resident Michelle Farley signed in to participate. By unanimous vote the board admitted Township Exhibits 1–5 and Mount Airy Exhibits 1–7 into the record.
After testimony and exhibit admission, the Board closed the hearing and reconvened the regular meeting. The Board voted to place the Mount Airy Golf Driving Range request on the Aug. 17, 2026 agenda for further discussion and potential action, giving supervisors and staff time to review the record and the conservation-easement materials.
