Deer Management Group Meeting Notice
The next deer management meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 29. It will take
place at 7:00 PM at the Townshhip Building. The public is invited to attend.
Initially, these meetings started taking place with the goal of exploring
the possibility of deer management activity on one or more parcels of
Townshipowned property. A dedicated core of volunteers has stepped forward
to become
involved with this project, and now it's possible that, ultimately, this
group may be in a position to serve as a resource for private land owners.

Discussion Regarding Partial Creek Rd Closing Postponed
At the Board of Supervisors meeting held on June 16, there was discussion
concerning closing to vehicular traffic the portion of Creek Rd, between
Chesterville Rd and Church Hill Rd, that does not have any houses on it.
During that discussion, it was proposed that the section of road in question
have gates and that there be an opening beside the gates wide enough for walkers,
bicyclists and equestrians. It was also proposed that the gates have combination
locks on them, and that the combination be available to emergency responders
through the 911 Center.
This topic was scheduled for discussion, and possibly a decision, at the
Board of Supervisors Meeting to be held on July 21, 2010.
However, the expected discussion of potentially closing Creek Rd to vehicular
traffic will not take place on July 21, as had been anticipated. The discussion
will take place at a future meeting. This will allow for further investigation
of the various regulations concerning the potential closure of a roadway.
