Patrick Henry Estates defeats cut-through .plans

by Bryan Clark, Staff Writer

CHARLES TOWN -After a nearly four year legal battle that went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, a local homeowners association has defeated a plan by its subdivision's developer that would have carved a cut-through between U.S. 340 and W.Va. 9.

Members of Patrick Henry Estates Homeowners Association also won compensation for 27 years of road maintenance, mandated road repairs to their roads, and ownership of their common areas after filing suit in 2008 against developer Dr. Gerald Miller of Baltimore and a proposal to build an apartment complex on a strip of land between their homes and the nearby shopping center. Members would later learn that Miller also planned to open a second entrance to the subdivision that would have made the neighborhood a shortcut between U.S. 340 and W.Va. 9.

"It has been an almost debilitating burden, but we have scrimped and saved and managed to pull through. We were in a very precarious financial situation during this past winter,"said Suzanne Malesic, president of the Patrick Henry Estates HOA.

State Attorney General Darrell McGraw is set to open a satellite office in the Eastern Panhandle.

McGraw and members of his Consumer Protection Division staff will host a reception at its new Martinsburg office Tuesday [May 15, 2012].

Deputy Attorney General Jill Miles said it’s the first satellite office for the Consumer Protection Division, which also has offices in Charleston.

The office is an outgrowth of a recent settlement between states and five mortgage lenders over foreclosure abuses. West Virginia consumers will receive nearly $34 million from the settlement, and many of them live in the Eastern Panhandle, Miles said.

It is being funded for three years with the hope that it can be made permanent, he said.
