ZIZZI, SR, and REFUGIO T. ZIZZI PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO DECLARATION OF TAKING AND NOW, this 28th day of January, 2005, come Condemnees, COSMO J. ZIZZI, SR., and REFUGIO T. ZIZZI, (hereinafter referred to as "Condemnees"), through their counsel, JOSEPH A. KLEIN, P.c. and file these Preliminary Objections to the Declaration of Taking filed to the above-captioned Term and Number pursuant to 26 P.S. S 1-406 and deny the power and right of the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (hereinafter referred to as "Condemnor") to appropriate any part of their real property and improvements thereon (hereinafter referred to as "subject property") described in the instant declaration of taking and the exhibits attached thereto; the propriety of the procedure followed by the Condemnor; and the validity of the declaration of taking, for the following reasons as thus far known to Condemnees. 1 . The declaration of taking in the above-captioned matter, a copy of which IS attached hereto as Exhibit "I", was filed on December 17, 2004, and served on Condemnees on January 3,2005. 2. Condemnees' property is located in Middlesex Township, Cumberland COllllty, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and has an address of 1148 Harrisburg Pike. 3. Paragraph 4 of the declaration of taking provides that: The purpose of the condemnation is to acquire property interests for the Total Reconstruction of the Pennsylvania Turnpike from mile post 214 to 227, which includes the reconfiguration of Interchange 226, the Carlisle Interchange, and its requirements. 4. The declaration of taking further avers in Paragraph 5 that: The property condemned is situate in the Township of Middlesex, Cumberland County and consists of2.286 acres in fee for required right-of-way for limited access, and 0.879 acre as easement for required substitute easement for the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company, a partial take. 5. Paragraph 6 of the declaration of taking sets forth that: The nature of the title hereby condemned is (i) fee simple in the surface, (ii) only so much of any minerals, oil or gas beneath the surface of any separate estate in any of those minerals, oil or gas as is necessary for the lateral and subjacent support of the surface and any improvements now or hereafter erected thereon, (iii) the right to access those minerals, oil, or gas from the surface of the land hereby condemned, and (iv) any and all rights of way into, upon, or over the surfaces of said land, including the right to explore and test drill the minerals, oil or gas; including the right to drill for, dig, mine, drain, ventilate, transport, or carry away said minerals, oil or gas now owned or hereafter acquired by the condemnees; together with the right to use any of the surface for storing materials, disposing of refuse or overburden, or to erect any buildings, structures, or fixtures necessary, convenient, or incident to the producing, mining or removing of minerals, oil, or gas from beneath the surface of the land hereby condemned or from any other land of the condemnees. 2 6. The site of Condemnor's proposed construction project is within the Middlesex Township RF-R Residential Farm Zoning District on the north side of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and the CH-Commercial Highway Zoning District on the south side of the Turnpike, the latter zoning district being that in which the subject property is located. 7. The permitted uses within the CH-Commercial Highway Zoning District of Middlesex Township, are limited by that municipality's zoning ordinance which provides in Article XIV- Supplementary Regulations, Section 14.15D: Interchange Development - No stmcture other than directional signs and/or other traffic control signs or devices erected by governmental body shall be erected within two hundred (200) feet of the right- of-way of any grade separated interchange providing access to any approach ramp. , . , 8. The proposed relocation of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company poles and lines to a ". . required substitute easement...". as set forth in Paragraph 5 of the declaration of taking would result in the installation of utility poles and transmission lines within said easement which would be located within two hundred (200) feet of Condemnor's proposed right-of-way for a grade separated interchange providing access to an approach ramp which is in violation of the aforesajd Section 14.15 of said zoning ordinance since the term "structure" has been defined in Article II-Definitions, Section 2.02-Rules of Interpretation, of this ordinance as "any man-made object having an ascertainable stationary location on or in land or water, whether or not affixed to the land." 3 9. For the reasons set forth above any proposed utility poles to be located within the purported substitute easement of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company would be prohibited within said easement area by the Middlesex Township Zoning Ordinance. 10. Further, although the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company utility poles as currently located constitute a non-conforming use under Article XV of the Middlesex Township Zoning Ordinance the same cannot be relocated to the proposed 0.879 acre substitute easement as such use is prohibited by Section IS.OIC of the ordinance. II. Alternatively, the relocation of said utility poles would require that a Special Exception be granted by the Zoning Hearing Board of Middlesex Township, which has neither been applied for nor secured by Condemnor. 12. The stated purpose of the instant declaration of taking as referenced in Paragraph 4 includes "the reconfiguration of Interchange 226, Carlisle Interchange, and its requirements", which proposed use requires under the Middlesex Zoning Ordinance and its Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance that a land development plan first be suhmitted for approval of this proposed construction project but Condemnor has failed to "rrly for the same as noted in a letter attached hereto as Exhibit "2" directed to its engineering project manager by the zoning officer of Middlesex Township, 13. The uses proposed in Paragraph 6 of the declaration of taking referencing, inter alia the right to drill for, dig, mine, drain, ventilate, transport, or carry away minerals, oil or gas along with the right to utilize any of the surface for storing the materials, disposing of refuse or overburden or to erect any buildings, structures, or 4 fixtures necessary, convenient, or incident thereto do not constitute a permitted use within Article X Section 10.03 of the Middlesex Township Zoning Ordinance relating to CH- Commercial Highway District nor would they constitute accessory uses as defined by Section 10.04 of said ordinance nor as Special Exception uses as provided for in Section 10. 05 of said Zoning Ordinance. 14. F or the reasons set forth above, Condemnor cannot presently utilize the subject property for the purposes stated in its declaration of taking. 15. Condemnees currently conduct a storage shed sales business on the subject property as an interim use pending its ultimate utilization for its highest and best reasonably available uses which would include but not be limited to hotels, motels, banks, restaurants, vehicle sales and services and retail businesses. 16. The proposed condemnation of Condemnees' property and the relocation of the utility poles within the easement for the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company severely restricts Condemnees' ability to continue their current utilization of their property as well as their subsequent development of the subject property for the aforementioned commercial uses. 17. An alternative option for relocating the transmission lines and poles of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company has been submitted by Condemnees and their representatives to Condemnor which would eliminate any easement over Condemnees' property and the accompanying adverse impact on both their current and future uses of the subject property and would result at the same time in substantial savings in costs to Condemnor, but the latter has arbitrarily and capriciously refused to consider the same. 5 18. For the reasons set forth in Paragraphs I through 17, above, incorporated herein by reference, the purported taking by Condemnor of the property of Condemnees is a gross abuse of discretion by condemnor, and is arbitrary and capricious, as constituting a taking of more of the condemnees' property than the public need reasonably requires for the purposes stated in the instant declaration of taking, and is not in accordance with sound engineering practices consonant with the requirements of due process oflaw, and is beyond what the public need constitutionally permits. 19. The within preliminary objections to the declaration of taking are filed in conformity with and pursuant to the procedures required for the same as set forth in Section 1-406 of the Eminent Domain Code, 26 P.S. S 1.406, which provides in pertinent part as follows: "~1-406. Preliminary objections (a) Within 30 days after bleing served with notice of condemnation, the condemnee may file preliminary objections to the declaration of taking. Thl~ court upon cause shown may extend the time for filing preliminary objections, Preliminary objections shall he limited to and shall be the exclusive method of challenging (I) the power or right of the condemnor to appropriate the condemned property unless the same has been previously adjudicated; (2) the !mfficiency of the security; (3) any other procedure followed by the condemnor; or (4) the declaration of taking. Failure to raise these matters by preliminary objections shall constitute a waiver thereof. 20. The within preliminary objections are, therefore, not filed pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1017 relating to "pleadings allowed" nor are they subject to the procedural provisions of the Local Rules governing the practice in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, but rather are controlIed exclusively by the procedure 6 established by S 1-406 of the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, and the case law decided thereunder. 21. Condemnees reserve the right to amend these Preliminary Objections insofar as may be appropriate in connection with any information developed by them as a result of discovery to be undertaken in connection with these proceedings. WHEREFORE, Condemnees, COSMO 1. ZIZZI and REFUGIO T, ZIZZI respectfully request that this Honorable Court declare the purported taking of their property void and of no effect and order a revesting of title in said Condemnees to their property purportedly condemned by Condemnor and to assess an award against said Condemnor and in favor of the condemnees for damages under the provisions of S 1-406 and S 1-408 of the Eminent Domain Code, Act of June 22, 1964, P.L. 84, Art.

The report details engineering for stonnwater improvements proposed to accommodate runoff from a proposed construction project tel reconstruct and realign entrance and exit ramps of the Pennsylvania Turnpike at the Carlisle Interchange, Exit #226, The majority of the proposed construction project is located west of the toll booths and would also involve a new bridge structure over the turnpike to accommodate the realigned entrance and exit ramps, The site of the proposed construction project is within the Middlesex Township RF-Residential Farm Zoning District on the north side ofthe turnpike and inl the CH-Commercial Highway Zoning District on the south side of the turnpike. I have discussed the proposed construction project with the Township Board of Supervisors and the Township Solicitor. After initial review, it is my detennination that improvements proposed by the construction project do constitute land development as defined in the Township Zoning Ordinance and the Township Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (hereafter SLDO), Therefore, the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission must submit a land development plan for the proposed construction project in accordance with requirements in the SLDO. The stonnwater management report must also be submitted as supporting documentation for the land development plan. 'i,,,"~-' ~,l 4_+. It is my opinion that, in the interest of protecting health, safety and welfare of the general public, the Township would want to review the land development plan in detail for at least the following items; possible downstream stonnwater impacts to adjacent properties and the Leton page I of2 EXHIBIT ';: t': I ~ .. -~ ~ :;,." "~ . ;.. ,..,-' Spring Run, required landscaping or other buffering between the project and adjacent properties, and for possible light glare impacts from propos~id high rise light standards at the realigned ramps. In addition, the Township has had ongoing problems caused by truck drivers exiting the turnpike and going south on US II rather than north on US II to truck services areas, and may want to review that proposed signage is adequate to direct these vehicles in the proper direction to avoid highway accidents and damage to private and public property when the trucks attempt to turn around along US II to head north towards trucking facilities, . I am enclosil;tg information on plan submittal, including an application, fee schedule, meeting schedule add'plan submission schedule. The land d1evelopment plan for the proposed construction project must also be submitted for review by the Cumberland county Planning Commission, Cumberland County Conservation District and the Letort Regional Authority. In order for the proposed Pennsylvania Turnpike, Carlisle Interchange construction project to proceed, an application for land development plan approval for the project must be prepared in accordance with the requirements of both the and Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance and the Zoning Ordinance, and submitted to Middlesex Township for consideration. Please contact me at the Township office if you have questions about this matter, or if you need more information on the plan submittal process.

ZIZZI MOTION TO STRIKE PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO THE DECLARATION OF TAKING AND NOW, this ''i!!'day of March, 2005, come Condemnees Cosmo J. Zizzi, Sr" and Refugio T. Zizzi who file this Motion to Strike the Preliminary Objections filed by Condemnor, Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission to Condemnees' Preliminary Objections to the Declaration of Taking in the above-captioned matter and set forth the following in support thereof: I. A Declaration of Taking was filed by Condemnor in the above-captioned matter on December 17, 2004 and served on Condemnees on January 3, 2005. A copy of said Declaration of Taking is attached hereto as Exhibit" I" and is incorporated herein by reference. 2. Condemnees Zizzi filed timely Preliminary Objections to the aforesaid Declaration of Taking on January 28, 2005. A copy of said Preliminary Objections is attached hereto as Exhibit "2" and is incorporated herein by reference. 3. On February 15, 2005 Condemnor Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission filed a "pleading" captioned PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PRELIMINARY OBJECTION TO THE DECLARATION OF TAKING. A copy of said document is attached hereto as Exhibit "3" and is incorporated herein by reference. 4. Paragraph I through and including Paragraph 18, Paragraph 20 and 21 of Condemnor's Preliminary Objections allege that the corresponding numbers in Condemnees' Preliminary Objections constitute "factual averments, not Preliminary Objections, and are not permitted under the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, 26 PS~]-406". 5. Section 1-406 of the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, 26 P.S, ~1-406 provides that the filing of Preliminary Objections is the exclusive method of challenging a declaration of taking and does not provide any mechanism for filing, as Condemnor has in the instant action, "Preliminary Objections to Preliminary Objections to the Declaration of Taking." 6. In the comments accompanying Section 1-406 of the Eminent Domain Code the Joint State Government Commission in its 1964 report provides that "This section simplifies and clarifies the procedure for challenging a condemnation effectuated by a declaration of taking by providing an exclusive method which must be utilized within the prescribed time." 7. Arguendo, even if there were a procedural mechanism for Condemnor to challenge Condemnees' Preliminary Objection by filing Preliminary Objections, 2 Condemnor's Preliminary Objections have improperly alleged that, "factual averments... are not permitted under the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, 26 P.S. 9 1-406," 8. To the contrary, the provisions of Section 1-406 of the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code clearly contemplate that factual averments would be contained in Preliminary Objections and specifically provide in Section 1-406 (e) that "If an issue of fact is raised, the court shall take evidence by depositions or otherwise." 9. Accordingly, Condemnor's Preliminary Objections to Condemnees' Preliminary Objections to the Declaration of Taking constitutes a pleading which fails to conform to law or rule of court and should be stricken and the parties hereto should be directed to appropriately proceed under the provisions of Section 1-406 of the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, 10. Prior to filing the instant Motion to Strike, Condemnees' counsel afforded counsel for Condemnor the opportunity to withdraw her Preliminary Objections for the reasons articulated above, but she has refused to do so requiring this matter to be submitted for judicial determination. A copy of the letter forwarded to Condemnor's counsel is attached hereto as Exhibit "4" and is incorporated herein by reference. WHEREFORE, Condemnees Cosmo 1. Zizzi, Sr., and Refugio T, lizzi respectfully request this Court to enter an Order striking the pleading filed by Condemnor, Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission and captioned as "PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO THE DECLARATION OF TAKING" and direct the parties to proceed in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 1-406 of the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, 26 P.S. ~1-406 for a determination of Condemnees' Preliminary Objections to the Declaration of Taking.

Condemnees' property is located in Middlesex Township, Cumberland County, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and has an address of 1148 Harrisburg Pike, 3. Paragraph 4 of the declaration of taking provides that: , ~ The purpose of the condemnation is to acquire property interests for the Total Reconstruction of the Pennsylvania Turnpike from mile post 214 to 227, which includes the reconfiguration of Interchange 226, the Carlisle Interchange, and its requirements, 4, The declaration of taking further avers in Paragraph 5 that: The property condemned is situate in the Township of Middlesex, Cumberland County and consists of2,286 acres in fee for required right-of-way for limited access, and 0,879 acre as easement for required substitute easement for the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company, a partial take. 5, Paragraph 6 of the declaration of taking sets forth that: The nature of the title hereby condemned is (i) fee simple in the surface, (ii) only so much of any minerals, oil or . gas beneath the surface of any separate estate in any of those minerals, oil or gas as is necessary for the lateral and subjacent support of the surface and any improvements now or hereafter erected thereon, (iii) the right to access those minerals, oil, or gas from the surface of the land hereby condemned, and (iv) any and all rights of way into, upon, or over the surfaces of said land, including the right to explore and test drill the minerals, oil or gas; including the right to drill for, dig, mine, drain, ventilate, transport, or carry away said minerals, oil or gas now owned or hereafter acquired by the condemnees; together with the right to use any of the surface for storing materials, disposing of refuse or overburden, or to erect any buildings, structures, or fixtures necessary, convenient, or incident to the producing, mining or removing of minerals, oil, or gas from beneath the surface of the land hereby condemned or from any other land of the condemnees, 2 :.~ .' 6. The site of Condemnor's proposed construction project is within the Middlesex Township RF-R Residential Farm Zoning District on the north side of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and the CH-Commercial Highway Zoning District on the south side of the Turnpike, the latter zoning district being that in which the subject property is located, .. 7, The permitted uses within the CH-Commercial Highway Zoning District of Middlesex Township, are limited by that municipality's zoning ordinance which provides in Article XIV- Supplementary Regulations, Section 14,15D: Interchange Development - No structure other than directional signs and/or other traffic control signs or devices erected by governmental body shall be erected within two hundred (200) feet of the right- of-way of any grade separated interchange providing access to any approach ramp.... 8. The proposed relocation of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company poles and lines to a ".., required substitute easement ..,", as set forth in Paragraph 5 of the declaration of taking would result in the installation of utility poles and transmission lines within said easement which would be located within two hundred (200) feet of Condemnor's proposed right-of-way for a grade separated interchange providing access to an approach ramp which is in violation of the aforesaid Section 14.15 of said zoning ordinance since the term "structure" has been defined in Article II-Definitions, Section 2.02-Rules of Interpretation, of this ordinance as "any man-made object having an ascertainable stationary location on or in land or water, whether or not affixed to the land," 3 . . , ,. ; .. . ., 9, For the reasons set forth above any proposed utility poles to be located within the purported substitute easement of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company would be prohibited within said easement area by the Middlesex Township Zoning Ordinance, la, Furtper, although the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company utility poles as currently located constitute a non-conforming use under Article XV of the Middlesex Township Zoning Ordinance the same cannot be relocated to the proposed 0.879 acre substitute easement as such use is Prohibited by Section 15,OlC of the ordinance, 11, Alternatively, the relocation of said utility poles would require that a Special Exception be granted by the Zoning Hearing Board of Middlesex Township, which has neither been applied for nor secured by Condemnor. 12, The stated purpose of the instant declaration of taking as referenced in Paragraph 4 includes "the reconfiguration of Interchange 226, Carlisle Interchange, and its requirements", which proposed use requires under the Middlesex Zoning Ordinance and its Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance that a land development plan first be submitted for approval of this proposed construction project but Condemnor has failed to apply for the same as noted in a letter attached hereto as Exhibit "2" directed to its engineering project manager by the zoning officer of Middlesex Township, 13. The uses proposed in Paragraph 6 of the declaration of taking referencing, inter alia the right to drill for, dig, mine, drain, ventilate, transport, or carry away minerals, oil or gas along with the right to utilize any of the surface for storing the materials, disposing of refuse or overburden or to erect any buildings, structures, or 4 '. " fixtures necessary, convenient, or incident thereto do not constitute a permitted use within Article X Section 10,03 of the Middlesex Township Zoning Ordinance relating to CH- Commercial Highway District nor would they constitute accessory uses as defined by Section 10.04 of said ordinance nor as Special Exception uses as provided for in Section 10. 05 of said Zoning Ordinance. ~ 14, For the reasons set forth above, Condemnor cannot presently utilize the subject property for the purposes stated in its declaration of taking, 15, Condemnees currently conduct a storage shed sales business on the subject property as an interim use pending its ultimate utilization for its highest and best reasonably available uses which would include but not be limited to hotels, motels, banks, restaurants, vehicle sales and services and retail businesses. 16, The proposed condemnation of Condemnees' property and the relocation of the utility poles within the easement for the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company severely restricts Condemnees' ability to continue their current utilization of their property as well as their subsequent development of the subject property for the aforementioned commercial uses. 17, An alternative option for relocating the transmission lines and poles of the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company has been submitted by, Condemnees and their representatives to Condemnor which would eliminate any easement over Condemnees' property and the accompanying adverse impact on both their current and future uses of the subject property and would result at the same time in substantial savings in costs to Condemnor, but the latter has arbitrarily and capriciously refused to consider the same, 5 18, For the reasons set forth in Paragraphs 1 through 17, above, incorporated herein by reference, the purported taking by Condemnor of the property of Condemnees is a gross abuse of discretion by condemnor, and is arbitrary and capricious, as constituting a taking of more of the condemnees'. property than the public need reasonably require~ for the purposes stated in the instant declaration of taking, and is not .... in accordance with sound engineering practices consonant with the requirements of due process of law, and is beyond what the public need constitutionally permits, 19, The within preliminary objections to the declaration of taking are filed in conformity with and pursuant to the procedures required for the same as set forth in Section 1-406 of the Eminent Domain Code, 26 P.S, ~ 1-406, which provides in pertinent part as follows: "~ 1-406. Preliminary objections (a) Within 30 days after being served with notice of condemnation, the condemnee may file preliminary objections to the declaration of taking. The court upon cause shown may extend the time for filing preliminary objections. Preliminary objections shall be limited to and shall be the exclusive method of challenging (1) the power or right of the condemnor to appropriate the condemned property unless the same has been previously adjudicated; (2) the sufficiency of the security; (3) any other procedure followed by the condemnor; or (4) the declaration of taking. Failure to raise these matters by preliminary objections shall constitute a waiver thereof. 20, The within preliminary objections are, therefore, not filed pursuant to Pa,R,C.P, 1017 relating to "pleadings allowed" nor are they subject to the procedural provisions of the Local Rules governing the practice in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, but rather are controlled exclusively by the procedure 6 . '. . established by S 1-406 of the Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code, and the case law decided thereunder, 21. Condemnees reserve the right to amend these Preliminary Objections insofar as may be appropriate in connection with any information developed by them as a - . . . result of discovery to be undertaken in connection with these proceedings, WHEREFORE, Condemnees, COSMO J.

ZIZZI respectfully request that this Honorable Court declare the purported taking of their property void and of no effect and order a revesting of title in said Condemnees to their. property purportedly condemned by Condemnor and to assess an award against said Condemnor and in favor of the condemnees for damages under the provisions of S 1-406 and S I -408 of the Eminent Domain Code, Act of June 22, 1964, P.L. 84, Art, IV, 26 PS SSl-406 and 1-408, as amended.
