Baker V. Upper Southampton Township Zoning Hearing Board

Kenneth Baker (Baker) and Upper Southampton Township (Township) have filed consolidated appeals from the order of the Court of Common Pleas of Bucks County, which affirmed the decision of the Upper Southampton Township Zoning Hearing Board (Board) determining that the Upper Southampton Township Zoning Ordinance (Ordinance) was invalid because off-premises advertising signs were excluded de jure and because there was no legitimate health, safety, moral or general welfare concern that justified a total prohibition of such signs.
