Philadelphia set to receive $1.3 million from natural gas drilling impact fee

On behalf of Kaplin Stewart Meloff Reiter & Stein, P.C. posted in Land Use & Zoning on Oct 25, 2012.

As a result of Pennsylvania’s new gas drilling law, the city of Philadelphia is set to receive nearly $1.3 million. That number was released on Monday by Governor Corbett’s office, along with the amounts every municipality and county will receive under the new law. The proceeds of the impact fee mostly go to the communities where drilling will take place, but some also goes to all counties for of conservation, beautification and other purposes.

Energy companies propose new natural gas pipeline

On behalf of Kaplin Stewart Meloff Reiter & Stein, P.C. posted in Land Use & Zoning on Mar 7, 2012.

We have previous written about a bill-now law-that imposes a local impact fee on natural gas drillers across Pennsylvania. The law has caused a lot of controversy over its zoning provision, which effectively stripped the ability of local governments to control zoning of drilling. The law is, as we’ve noted, a response to the growing natural gas industry in Pennsylvania, which many see as in need of revitalization.
