OPINION NOT REPORTED
MEMORANDUM OPINION BY JUDGE CEISLER
JAR Investments, Inc. (JAR) appeals from an order of the Court of Common Pleas of Montgomery County (trial court) granting judgment in favor of the Municipality of Norristown (Norristown) for delinquent trash removal charges relating to JAR's three-unit rental property at 249 East Main Street in Norristown (Property). A separate but similar appeal by JAR is pending before this Court regarding another JAR rental property at 271 East Main Street in Norristown. That appeal is Municipality of Norristown v. JAR Investments, Inc. (Pa. Cmwlth., No. 917 C.D. 2019) (JAR I). By order dated October 9, 2019, this Court denied JAR's application to consolidate the two appeals, because the trial court held separate hearings (although much of the evidence in the first hearing was also considered as evidence in the second hearing, see Reproduced Record at 210a, 257a), and issued separate opinions. The two appeals were argued seriately and are being decided contemporaneously and consistently with each other. After thorough review, we affirm the trial court's order for the reasons set forth in our opinion in JAR I.
The Honorable Bernard A. Moore, S.J., presided. --------
