Zoning Hearing Board public hearing
An ongoing legal battle over a parking ordinance will be continuing through briefs rather than public debate, involved parties decided on June 24.
An Oakmont Zoning Hearing Board public hearing came to a quick adjournment when borough Solicitor Jacob Leyland and Lisa Siefert, and attorneys Thomas Breth and Thomas King III,, who represent Oakmont resident and local restaurant owner John Keefe, agreed to forgo verbal debate.
In an effort to enhance efficiency, all parties decided to skip future public hearings and rather submit facts, findings and arguments through documentation. A final decision and public vote will be made by the zoning hearing board within 45 days after Aug. 11.
