Zoning Challenge - Start Will Get Do-Over!

According to the newspapers (see Mausolf - Express Times and Nixon - Morning Call) over 300 people turned out for the Kings Mill (and partners) zoning challenge hearing on August 7th. Bracelets affirming farmland preservation in Northampton County were distributed... 420 of them!

The meeting started only to be stopped minutes later when it was discovered that the required letters to property owners within 300 feet of the (named in the suit) parcels were not sent. The landowners were not notified that there was to be a hearing on the 7th.


To read the Kings Mill (and partners) zoning challenge for yourself, click HERE. And, to read a letter to the Express Times from Francis Caffrey, a Forks resident and meeting attendee, click HERE. His sentiments express that of many of the disappointed residents who came to the meeting.

We join Mr. Caffrey's plea for everyone to come again to the re-start on August 21 at 7:30 PM. The Zoning Hearing Board will be buoyed by your show of support for Forks in this most important land use issue in years!
