EV Township Leaves Phoenixville Regional Plan - Possible Impact on CCRC

Please visit the following website for additional information concerning the Phoenixville Regional Plan.

Two of the supervisors on the board decided to leave the regional plan a few months ago and then the process began. Unfortunately, it is only a matter of time that the issue of the CCRC on Stony Run Road may resurface. Residents along this road may not fully appreciate how greatly their lives will be affected. The CCRC will be run 24/7, with no breaks. If the size and scope as planned previously remains the same, there will be a multitude of issues arrising for these residents and those living along West Bridge Street, Creamery Road, & Bethel Church Road.

We hope that the residents have seen some of the issues that have occured with Pennhurst and the traffic. At one point early on in the process of changing the zoning, it was discussed about how workers would be bused or shuttled into the CCRC for work...along with all the other workers that would use their cars. We also hope that the residents have not been frightened by talk of possible negative alternatives that could be built on this land and told tales that the other possibilites are much worse than a CCRC or made promises that the CCRC will remain small and nothing to be concerned about. Until the proposal is in writing...there is no guarantee.

Let's hope that in 2011, our Board of Supervisors keep in mind the impact of their decisions upon the residents and how we live our lives, raise our children, etc in this rural area. We bought our homes in a rural township and would like to see the township remain rural. There are more than enough CCRC's locally and all placed along major roadways.

Sincerely,

Please remain ready for a possible resurfacing of a CCRC proposal.
