Zoning Appeal Denied for Telkor Inc Move Ordered
Elvrra Township Zoning Board of Appeals denied unanimously the appeal by Howard R. Roe to continue manufacturing Telkor Inc on a non conformity basis. Telkor operates in a farmhouse near the New York Central tracks on Murray Ridge Road since September with residents opposing a prior Roe quarrying use. The board gave Roe until Sept. 1 to relocate, preserving a prior non conforming use at a second Murray Ridge location. In other action, Bud Pycroft was allowed to extend his porch beyond the front setback. Hubert L. Chappell’s request to move a trailer onto his lot was denied as not meeting hardship criteria.
