The Commonwealth Court has issued it's decision on the final appeal presently pending, again affirming the Trial Court, which had ruled in favor of the Borough.
A lot of words to say that WE, the majority of the residence of Indian Lake, have won another court victory.
The court determined that the easement issued to St. Clair Development, by the Borough, was proper. This easement, for the area where St. Clair's boat docks are, allows the developer to guarantee a resident of a new townhouse, an option on a boat dock. One does not need to be in the market for a townhouse to understand why this would be a major issue to someone buying one of these luxury townhouses overlooking the lake.
The pattern remains the same, a small group of people, with money, file suit against anything the St. Clairs do for this community. They are defeated in Zoning Hearing Board reviews, in trial court in Somerset, and on appeal in Commonwealth Court. All the time causing the Borough and the St. Clairs to spend untold amounts of dollars in defending their actions.
If they would only realize the harm they are doing, perhaps they would stop. Just an explanation of WHY they do what they do, would be enlightening.
