NORTH HUNTINGDON ZONING BOARD REJECTS APPEAL FOR GUN SHOP

The North Huntingdon Zoning Board rejected an appeal for an occupancy permit for a gun shop in a section of the Stratigos Banquet Centre.  The Trib reports that the board ruled that the property is in a residential zone and already contains a non-conforming use.  Officials say to sell guns on the property at 131 Colonial Manor Road would require another change in the use, and the township’s zoning ordinances do not allow two nonconforming uses on the same parcel.
