The appeal of a Greenfield Township resident whose property was sold for back taxes has been rejected by the Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court.
The state appeals court ruled last week the Blair County Tax Claim Bureau followed the law by properly notifying the property owner and by posting notice of the County’s 2018 Upset Tax Sale tax sale on the property.
The Commonwealth Court, in its decision, upheld a Sept. 25, 2019, ruling by Blair County Judge Jackie Bernard who found the notice of the sale was posted in a place “conspicuous and visible to the public.”
Property owner Mearle Weyant, through his Hollidaysburg attorney Phillip O. Robertson, brought the case before the state appeals court.
With the latest COVID-19 numbers from Sunday and Monday, Cumberland County has now surpassed 10,000 cases of the disease since the start of the pandemic in March.
Though there were low numbers of total reported tests over the last two days, likely due to the Christmas holiday, Cumberland County reported a relatively high number of positives, growing by 76 new cases Sunday and 74 new cases Monday. The county now has 10,047 total COVID-19 cases.
The increase comes with only about 200 tests were reported each day. Judging by just the number of reported confirmed positive tests and number of reported negative tests, the county saw about 34.2% of its tests come back positive in Sunday s report and 32.7% of its tests come back positive in Monday s report.
