Lynn Township’s supervisors meeting in June opened with several residents voicing complaints in relation to a situation on Sassafras Road.

The issue concerned property which has apparently left unattended.

John Halasovski stated that bags of garbage are visible on the site along with furniture and clothes strewed on the property.

There are also horses and dogs on the property left unattended and the weeds were not mowed.

One nearby resident, Cheri Fager, alleged she was bitten by the dogs.

Rodents have been noticed on the property, also.

Neighbors said their quality of life has diminished since these problems have arisen along with devaluation of the nearby properties.

Zoning officer Chris Noll said the dog problem must be handled by the dog warden.

He did say, however, the township could take action on the other offenses.

He outlined the process that would have to be taken. Noll noted that a letter had been sent to the property owner giving 15 days to remedy the situation.

Roadmaster Bruce Raber, in his report, told the board roads and areas in Ontelaunee Park are ready to be paved.
