Did Easton's New Codes Czar Bungle Billboard Ruling in Forty Fort?

Last week, I outed Steve Nowroski as the person who soon will be getting paid $87,000 as Easton's new code czar. Easton tried to keep his identity a secret until I blew the whistle and reported that he is someone who has been investigated twice - once for using code as a retaliatory measure and once for issuing permits without inspections. This was in his capacity as Forty Fort's code enforcer, a position he resigned two weeks after the investigations started. What I failed to tell you then is that Nowroski had another job at Forty Fort. He was their zoning officer. A clerical failure there led to an unpopular 60' high lighted billboard in spite of a rejection from the Zoning Hearing Board.

Reason? Somebody "forgot" to send the denial to billboard company, Northway Ventures. That failure to notify the losing party formally resulted in something that the law calls a "deemed approval." According to a video of a subsequent Borough Council meeting, Nowroski is the person who should have notified Northway.

I'm unsure whether he's the actual culprit. It could be the ZHB Solicitor. On the other hand, Nowroski is a named Defendant in the mandamus action that resulted. But this is now the third incident that casts doubt on whether hiring this guy is a good idea, to say nothing of paying him $87,000 a year.

According to Mayor Sal Panto, everything was reviewed by his "background investigator".

I wonder if he gets $87,000 a year, too.
