The final round of the King Mill hearings is scheduled for Monday Oct 20, 2008 at 7:30. Yes, the public will have the chance to provide input that will be included in the final record for the Northampton County courts.
Just a quick summary of the legal proceedings. This is an on-going hearing to hear a substantive challenge to 2006 Forks Township FP Farm Land Protection district regulations. The challenge states the regulations concerning the development of single family detached homes in the FP district are arbitrary, unreasonable, and unconstitutional because effect of the zoning laws discourage a landowner to develop the land with high density housing. The developer (KMRD) wants to built 1,952 condominium apartments, 359 townhouses and 731 mobile homes on 545 acres in new development called Kings Mill. Yikes!
This is the last hearing, as the KMRD and Forks Township attorneys present final arguments. The Zoning Hearing Board (ZHB) final vote will happen later in the evening.
It is important we attend this meeting to show our support for the township attorneys and send a message to the developers to respect our zoning laws!
Every Voice Counts
