PUBLIC NOTICE
- The Issue -
It has come to our attention that inaccurate social media information was posted regarding the Borough of Robesonia Zoning Board Hearing scheduled for March 15, 2022, at 7:00 P.M, Robesonia Borough Hall. The social media site (Facebook Page) in question posted on March 15, 2022, at 5:48 P.M. “Got it on good info Lawyer canceled. No trusting this corrupt boro.” Later posts on the same Facebook Page suggested that the meeting did occur but “Doors locked blinds closed.”
-The Facts -
The posting Facebook Page is not affiliated with the Borough of Robesonia nor its elected officials.
The Robesonia Zoning Board Hearing scheduled for March 15, 2022, at 7:00 P.M. at Borough Hall was held as scheduled (view original Public Hearing Notice). Contrary to the above-mentioned social media post, neither the Borough of Robesonia nor the Zoning Board issued or released a notice of cancellation.
Upon convening this meeting, with members of the public present, the Board identified interested parties wishing to present testimony in the matter of variances sought by the applicant, Robesonia Penn Developers, LLC.
The attorney representing Robesonia Penn Developers, LLC requested a hearing continuance on the basis that one of the three zoning board members was absent. The Zoning Board voted to grant a continuance and the meeting adjourned. The Zoning Board Hearing will reconvene on April 14, 2022, at 7:00 P.M., Robesonia Borough Hall.
- Setting the Record Straight -
While we respect an individual’s right to free speech, self-expression, and personal opinions, the Borough of Robesonia cautions against relying on social media for official information. In this case, interested parties were dissuaded from attending a public meeting by a false social media post stating that the “Lawyer canceled.”
If you ever have a question regarding public meeting dates and times please call Borough Hall at 610-693-3474, check the Borough Hall bulletin board, or visit our website.
