Paradise Materials, Inc. (Paradise Materials) appeals from an order of the Court of Common Pleas of Monroe County (trial court) granting Paradise Township’s (Township) Petition to Quash the Appeal of Paradise Materials.

Paradise Materials is the equitable owner of three tracts of land which comprise approximately 180 acres in Paradise Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania. Paradise Materials operates a small quarry on the land and wishes to expand the quarry’s operations; however, when Paradise Materials first sought the Township’s approval, the Township’s zoning ordinance did not allow the kinds of non-coal surface mining operations which Paradise wanted to establish as part of the expansion.

The Township’s zoning ordinance was originally enacted on December 17, 1991. On March 15, 1994, the Township amended certain provisions pertaining to non-coal surface mining, (R.R. at 25a-29a); however, on April 2, 1994, the Township recognized that some of the amendments were invalid and began the procedure to enact a municipal curative amendment pursuant to section 609.2 of the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code (MPC).1 (R.R. at 30a-31a.)

*1316On April 21, 1994, pursuant to section 609.2(l)(i) of the MPC, the Township passed a resolution which contained specific findings regarding the issues that were to be addressed by the municipal curative amendment:

1. Section 303(3)(K) and 504 of the Zoning Ordinance regulate quarrying activity in a manner which may exceed the permissible scope of municipal regulation.

2. The treatment of quarrying and related industrial activity under the Zoning Ordinance requires revision.

3. The absence of an industrial zone under the Zoning Ordinance requires revision and an appropriate amendment.

4. The Board of Supervisors and the Planning Commission are authorized and directed to begin the process of preparation and consideration of a curative amendment to the Zoning Ordinance.

(R.R. at 54a.) (Emphasis added.)

On August 13, 1994, despite the Township’s initiation of a municipal curative amendment with respect to quarrying and related industrial activity, Paradise Materials filed with the Township a petition for a landowner curative amendment pursuant to sections 609.1 and 916.1 of the MPC.2 (R.R. at 32a-37a.) In its petition, Paradise Materials challenged the Township’s zoning ordinance as exclusionary for its failure to provide for the following uses: (1) concrete batch and manufacturing plants; (2) bituminous asphalt plants; (3) the manufacture of stone-related products; (4) the storage, maintenance and repair of construction and quarry vehicles and equipment; (5) the storage of stone and stone products; (6) stone crushing and screening; and (7) attendant and accessory uses for the aforesaid structures, storage equipment, scales and offices related to the operation of the foregoing. (R.R. at 10a.) Because the Township had already begun the process for a municipal curative amendment, the Township declined to hold a hearing to consider Paradise Materials’ petition. (R.R. at 42a.)

On September 21, 1994, the Township enacted its own curative amendment. (R.R. at 60a-96a.) As a result, the Township’s zoning ordinance now provides for the following conditional uses in a B-2 Business District: (1) concrete plants, (R.R. at 85a); (2) asphalt plants, (R.R. at 85a); (3) the manufacture of stone-related products, (R.R. at 84a); (4) the storage and minor maintenance of vehicles and equipment, (R.R. at 84a); (5) retail and wholesale sales of stone excavated on the site, (R.R. at 84a); and (6) offices related to the operations, (R.R. at 84a).

On November 11,1994, Paradise Materials filed a Notice of Appeal with the trial court, averring that the Township’s failure to hold a hearing on its landowner curative amendment constituted a deemed denial. Thus, Paradise Materials requested that the trial court hold a de novo hearing and render a decision on the merits of its landowner curative amendment. (R.R. at 3a-6a.)

The Township filed a Petition to Strike Appeal, arguing that, because the Township did not have to consider Paradise Materials’ landowner curative amendment under section 609.2(3) of the MPC, the trial court lacked authority to consider it on appeal. The Township also maintained, inter alia, that, because the Township had amended that portion of its zoning ordinance challenged by Paradise Materials, the matter was moot. (R.R. at 18a-24a.)

*1317The trial court, after comparing the landowner curative amendment with the Township’s findings of invalidity, determined that the landowner curative amendment and the municipal curative amendment were based on substantially similar grounds. Thus, the trial court quashed Paradise Materials’ appeal.

On appeal to this court,3 Paradise Materials argues that the trial court erred as a matter of law in dismissing its appeal.4 Because the Township’s municipal curative amendment, now enacted, specifically addressed each element of Paradise Materials’ landowner curative amendment and thereby cured the zoning ordinance’s invalidity, we believe that Paradise Materials’ appeal from the order of the trial court is moot.5 See Board of Supervisors v. McClimans, 142 Pa.Cmwlth. 470, 597 A.2d 738 (1991).

Here, as stated above, Paradise Materials sought an amendment to the Township’s zoning ordinance which would allow: (1) concrete plants; (2) asphalt plants; (3) the manufacture of stone-related products; (4) the storage, maintenance and repair of construction and quarry vehicles and equipment; (5) the storage of stone and stone products; (6) stone crushing and screening; and (7) attendant and accessory uses for the aforesaid structures, storage equipment, scales and offices related to the operation of the foregoing.

The Township’s zoning ordinance, pursuant to the municipal curative amendment, now permits as a conditional use in a B-2 Business District: (1) concrete plants, (R.R. at 85a); (2) asphalt plants, (R.R. at 85a); (3) the manufacture of stone-related products, (R.R. at 84a); (4) the storage and minor maintenance of vehicles and equipment, (R.R. at 84a); (5) retail and wholesale sales of stone excavated on the site, (R.R. at 84a); and (6) offices related to the operations, (R.R. at 84a). It is apparent to us that the invalidity in the Township’s zoning ordinance which Paradise Materials identified in its petition has been cured.6

Accordingly, the appeal of Paradise Materials is dismissed as moot.

ORDER

AND NOW, this 29th day of May, 1996, the appeal of Paradise Materials, Inc. from the order of the Court of Common Pleas of Monroe County, dated August 28, 1995, is dismissed as moot.
