Developers to make case for Concord Twp. Proposal



Developers will make case for plan to build houses


CONCORD TWP. Developers seeking to build houses on open space in Concord Township will make their case to the township Planning Commission Monday night.

The proposal to build on 300 undeveloped acres near busy Route 202 and the Pennsylvania-Delaware border has been controversial. Concord Township is one of Delaware County's fastest-growing communities; the land in question is home to popular trails and abuts more than 1,000 acres of federally protected open space.

Representatives of Woodlawn Trustees Inc., which owns the land, have said trails and some open space would remain accessible for public use. But residents have organized against the plan, forming organizations called Save the Valley and the Beaver Valley Conservancy.

The Planning Commission meeting begins at 6 p.m. at Garnet Valley Middle School.
