BELATED CONGRATULATIONS
Baur
| (Continued from page 1)
. town and the Treat Arcade, a video
- .game center operated by the Baurs.
After receiving permission to pur-
chase a building permit from Dallas
. Township Zoning Officer in March
of 1981, Baur opted to request a
. zoning variance to allow him to
' build a few feet closer to the side of
his property than the current zoning
laws permit.
“‘That’s where I went wrong,”
said Baur. “If I had just purchased
the building permit and never both-
- ered with the sideline’ variance, I
© could have constructed the buildings
- and this whole issue would have
been avoided.”
It was when he requested the
. variance that the Dallas Township
Zoning Board took objections to the
plans.
According to Baur, the major
© issue at the time was whether or not
~ he was constructing a shopping
center on the Route 309 property. A
. shopping center in Dallas Township
- must be situated on at least two
acres of land, while the land Baur
planned to build on is 1.083 acres.
. “If 1 were planning to build a
* shopping center, I would need the
~. approval of the zoning board,” Baur
* said. “However, if I am not building
. a shopping center, all I need to
provide are the square footage,
proper parking and zoning classifi-
"cation. And I could have provided
the board with all of those things.
“They (the zoning board mem-
bers) felt my’ proposed buildings
should be classified as a shopping
center,” he continued. ‘‘But, accord-
ing to their definition of a shopping
center, my plans did not call for a
shopping center.” It is believed that
if Baur’s proposal had been
declared a shopping center, the
township zoning board would have
turned ‘‘thumbs down’’ on the idea.
Now that the path has been
cleared and his dreams are once
again possible, what will Baur do?
“The time of year isn’t right for
any kind of construction,” he said.
“So, we're looking toward spring
and we have the whole winter to
think about it. I’ve already lost two
and a half years of rents and, two
and a half years ago, construction
costs were a lot cheaper than what
they are today. We're just going to
have to take a long, hard look at the
whole project now.”
Although Baur may take the
winter months to think over the
possibility of the eight-store project,
he has already discussed the possi-
bility of suing Dallas Township for
damages.
“I have discussed that possibility
with my lawyer,” he said. “It hasn’t
gone any further than the initial
discussion, but I have thought about
suing the township for the loss of
rentals, legal fees and the increase
in construction costs.’
Election
. (Continued from page 1)
Jones feels the district ‘should do
away with frills” and feels he would
like ‘‘to represent the taxpayers.”
Shawn Murphy of Dallas, who
~ won on the Democratic ballot, is
running for her first term of elected
office, having been appointed to the
board when Mrs. Gregory resigned
her seat for one year. Mrs. Murphy
was unavailable for comment since
she was on a business trip to Las
Vegas attending a Planned Parent-
hood Federation meeting.
Incumbent Albert Pisaneschi of
Carverton who won on both tickets,
.is also running for his first elected
~ term having been appointed two
years ago to the seat held by the
late Bill Dierolf.
Pisaneschi stated, “I would like to
see more harmony among teachers
and administration...theclassroom
~ teacher is the backbone of the whole
school...and the school is the kids,
for without them there is no
school.” |
Harry Sickler of Dallas, who won
on both tickets, is a former school
board director who served ‘‘in the
60s when we built the first new high
school.” Sickler stated, ‘Since I'm
retired, I felt it was my turn to do
something for the community. I'd
like to see us get a handle on
taxes...I'm concerned about Senior
Citizens...I'd have to be on the
board to know exactly how to
improve it.”
On the surface, taxes would seem
to be the big issue most of the
candidates are concerned about,
however, several
expressed concern about the John
Gabriel case and the immediate
effect it may have on the election.
