The Dallas Post Dallas, PA WSR, May 24, 1989 ‘Main Street Dallas property to become landscape business By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Writer Louis Forte appeared before the Dallas Borough Council last Wednesday to tell the members that he plans to enter into a deal with the owner of Summit Land- scaping Company for the use of Forte's Main Street property. Forte told council that the property is owned by Margaret Hauch, his grandmother, who is going to give it to him (Forte) as a gift. Forte said he will clean up the parcel of land which includes a white house on Main Street and abuts Rice and Ridge Street. After that is done the owner of Summit Landscaping will have use of the property. The house will be remodeled and a storage building will be demolished. Forte also said the abandoned vehicles on the prop- erly will be removed. The landscaper intends to store plant material on the property, construct a 24'x24' building in which to store tools and machines and park his trucks there. Forte was told by councilman Harold Brobst to contact zoning officer Drew Fitch about the zoning and the proper procedure to set up the business project in the area which is zoned commercial.

Council Chairman Don Shaffer told the petitioners he would contact UGI for the cost of installation. Bud Duffield, Lake Street, asked council the status of the proceed- ings against the abandoned Hearthstone Pub on Main Street. Solicitor John Fine stated that the case is scheduled to come before the court in mid-June. Fine also told council members that the Deer Meadows appeal was in court Thursday, May 11, and he is wait- ing for a decision to be handed down.

Capital improvements for the bath- room in the second floor apart- ment of the borough building were also approved at an estimated cost of $3,500, but no contractor has been awarded a bid up to the pres- ent time.
