NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
The Pocono Township Zoning Hearing Board will conduct a public hearing on Thursday,
May 30, 2024, beginning at 5:00 P.M. at the Pocono Township Municipal Building, 112 Township
Drive, Tannersville, PA 18372, to consider three appeals by PoconoPlaces, LLC (Appellant) from
Enforcement Notices issued by the Pocono Township Zoning Officer. The first appeal relates to
the Enforcement Notice issued on December 13, 2023 regarding the property identified as Parcel
ID # 12.12.2.29 (Map # 12-6364-02-68-5335). The second appeal relates to the Enforcement
Notices issued on February 20, 2024 regarding the properties identified as Parcel ID #s.
12.12.2.25 (Map # 12-6364-02-68-5194); 12.12.2.27 (Map #12-6364-02-68-7334); and 12.12.2.28
(Map #12-6364-02-68-5296). The third appeal relates to the Enforcement Notice dated
December 13, 2023 regarding the property identified as Parcel ID # 12.12.2.30 (Map # 12-6364-
02-68-4435). With respect to the third appeal, Appellant contends that it was never served with
the Enforcement Notice and therefore requests that the Zoning Hearing Board accept an
untimely appeal of that Notice nunc pro tunc.
All five of the Enforcement Notices alleged that Appellant violated the following
provisions of the Pocono Township Zoning Ordinance: (1) § 470-121 by establishing a
salvage/junk yard on the subject property without first obtaining a Zoning Permit; (2) § 470-17
by establish a salvage/junk yard when that use is not permitted in the Commercial (C) zoning
district; and (3) § 470-122 by using and occupying the subject property as a salvage/junk yard
without first obtaining a Certificate of Use and Occupancy.
PoconoPlaces, LLC owns the properties that are subject to the Enforcement Notices.
Those properties are located along Route 611 in Pocono Township, Monroe County, PA, in the
Commercial (C) zoning district.
The three appeals will be consolidated and considered at the same hearing on May 30,
2024.
The complete application for public hearing is available for inspection (without charge) or
