Can you be there?

Hello friends,
There are a couple of important meetings this week and your presence will send the message that many people are still focused on the Conservation Easement.

Burlington County Bridge Commission
Wed. Sep. 26 2 p.m.
@ the Bridge Commission
Please come to this monthly meeting to ask if the Bridge Commission has made progress in attaining the Conservation Easement. The Bridge Commission and even the DEP has both expressed their support for the protecting this 5o-acre parcel, so we just have to push it to the top of their agenda.

Wed, Sep. 26 9:30 a.m.
Tim Robinson, Burlington Cty. Soil Conservation District
@ Palmyra Cove Nature Park
I am meeting with Tim Robinson to see how his organization can help us. They have already served Lisa Jackson with a violation for the project because the DEP didn't get prior approval from Soil Conservation. They've also forced the DEP to correct the outflow pipes to decrease the amount of silt flowing back into the river. If you can make it to the meeting that would be great - the more supporters this park has the better, as you know. :)

Also, a couple of people have asked me what to do with yard signs. Clara feels the most effective strategy is for everyone to take the yard signs down until the issue over the conservation easement heats up - then they can put them up again. That would make a stronger statement than leaving them up, I think.

Thank you and I look forward to seeing many of you this week!
