No Timetable Given For Decision on Billboards
Another round of arguments were heard by Judge Brobson on Sept. 16 regarding BIG's plan to install billboards.
MEDIA–After listening to nearly two hours of additional arguments on Friday morning at the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania in Media, Judge Kevin Brobson gave no timetable regarding to a decision on the Bartkowski Investment Group, Inc.'s (BIG) ability to place seven new billboards around Marple Township.
Brobson initially ruled on the case on April 15th, partially siding with the Board of Commissioners, however, a three-judge-panel at the appelate level decided to kick the case back down to Brobson after ruling that further arguments were needed.
Gregg Adelman, representing BIG, continued to focus his argument on the date of the ordinance.
"What we're focusing on here is, if you record it late and it gets into the official ordinance book, is that the point under the first class township code when the ordinance becomes enforceable?," asked
Adelman.
