neighborhood news

Dear neighbors,
I have several things to write about again. Please read all the notes below...

I've also received a request to have some moms who are worried about the bus stops and cut through traffic to volunteer to meet with a couple of township supervisors in the early morning to show them the problem. Any takers? Please email me if you are interested.

Thanks!

Party time alert! Let's be gracious neighbors and remember that this is the season of graduation parties. We can all put up with some late noise and cars once a year or so, I hope, to allow families to celebrate. If you are having a party, try contacting your neighbors to let them know ahead of time. Congrats to all our grads!

And lastly, an update from Gwen Douse on her requests to the township and Kate Harper:
Dear neighbors,
As a follow-up to my e-mail expressing our neighborhood's concerns regarding the impact of 202 expansion,  Kate Harper, our State Representative, immediately responded by sending a letter to Allen Biehler, Secretary of Transportation, relaying those concerns. She clearly explained the issue that will have a permanent effect on us, which is the hourglass effect that will occur when a five lane highway becomes a two lane highway before widening once again to five lanes near a Lower Gwynedd neighborhood known as Gwynedd Knoll. I want to take this opportunity to thank Kate for her responsiveness and look forward to her on-going support in addressing this issue with the goal of keeping that section as a five lane highway through-out our area, so it won't have a negative impact on us. I also received a response to the request for the implementation of e-mails for Board of Supervisors. According to our Manager, Larry Comunale, the Township is in the process of updating its computer system, including e-mails.  The system should be in by the end of the month.  A joint Supervisor's mailbox will be provided for residents to send their e-mails.  We will be notified when it is completed.
Best wishes,
Gwen Douse
