Re: Eagle Lake residents prohibited from their properties
No where in the Constitution does it give Covington Twnshp the right to suspend Freedom of Movement. I live 6 miles from Eagle Lake and though they are a PITA, they have the right to travel. How many people live in all the developments in the Poconos and commute to NYC and Jersey every day. I might have thought at one time to ban them, but I’ve overlooked their obnoxious behavior.

I really wonder how many of them will start rethinking their political viewpoints after this shit is over.

Re: Eagle Lake residents prohibited from their properties
The out of state property owners are part of the reason Wayne Pike and Lackawanna county are still a stay at home, not that anyone is abiding by that.

Re: Eagle Lake residents prohibited from their properties
As much as I rag on "front platers" (my one, true bigotry), that is just incorrect. The population of Pike, Monroe, and Lackawanna Counties is large enough on its own. Add to that the number of people who commute to NYC and other high infection areas, and infection rates would still be higher than the 50:100K that the state Dept. of Health looks to as their threshold for red/yellow.
Covington Twp. has exceeded their authority. Period. Sure, the front platers can be a pain in the ass, but they have the same rights as the "natives". Further, this is the first time that I've seen a local government go beyond the state. That's cause for even greater alarm.
I used to see the Police Chief when ojr girls were in scouts together. Haven't seen him in a few years. I'd love to get him in private and ask him WTF the supervisors are thinking.Sed ego sum homo indomitus

Re: Eagle Lake residents prohibited from their properties
You applaud that they exceed their statutory authority???
Would you say the same if they randomly pulled you over in your car and detained you for no reason?
Would you applaud them for entering your home and searching for "contraband" without a warrant?
If you wouldn't then how can you rationalize shutting down people from accessing property that they have leased? Under which municiple code do they have the authority to do that? I'll give you a hint...they don't have one. What they are doing is unlawful.Sed ego sum homo indomitus
