Alber discussed expand- ing the transient licensing ordinance, expressing a desire to change an existing ordinance which requires a license of those wishing to sell from door to door with- in the township. He wants the registration process to include background checks. Township solicitor Thomas Brennan said he needs to know what chang- es would be required and that he would like to get the revised ordinance ready for the next meeting. ‘ Alber wants to request three types of background checks on those who sell in a township. He said the cost of the state police, r8l and the Department of Public Welfare background checks would be required of those who applied to the township for licensing. Alber also suggested that the township require inspec- tions of properties being used as rentals. He was con- cerned about the number Bl of township homes being turned into rental units for Misericordia students. Vice chairperson Liz Martin agreed that the increase in the number of township homes used as | rental properties has creat- ed problems, reporting that the township has received complaints about college students parking illegally and crossing over people’s property After discussion, Brennan advised Alber that inspec- tions would be too time- suming. “We don’t have manpower,” he said. Orennan suggested that Alber address the problem by listening to those who complained and by enforc- ing a present ordinance which allows no more than four unrelated residents to live in a rental property. During comments, a resident produced pictures of a ditch in front of his property on Parrish Street. He said that the ditch was Pittston | KitchensBylnterstate.com full of gravel and other debris and that it needs cleaning out.
