Crematory Ordinance Decision to be Delayed

Township officials are reviewing public comments.

At their next meeting on Oct. 22, the Peters Township Council will not be reviewing the zoning ordinance amendment to regulate crematories as a conditional use in the light industrial zoning district.

Currently, township officials are reviewing comments received with the intent to provide revisions to the proposed ordinance. They will then need to assess whether or not the revisions will require advertising and an additional public hearing.

An official public notice will be made once the date for review by council has been set.

A capacity crowd, mainly against the ordinance, attended the public hearing earlier this month.
