Residents complain Castle cleanup is lagging behind
Residents in the Plush Mill Road area urge township action as a court ordered cleanup of the castle drags. Township officials report contact with the owner's attorney to set a timetable, with a Jan 16 deadline to present a rehabilitation plan. If compliance falters, demolition may be pursued at an estimated 50 to 60 thousand dollars.
