Help out your Neighbor




We often hear how some form of government has made a bad decision. Well this is happening right here in our backyard. The Perkiomen Township Supervisors have selected two elderly families that have something they want, land. The township is using “eminent domain” to force long time residents from their homes to make a park. While parks are generally good things forcing people from their homes is too high of a price. To add insult to injury the “price” to be paid to the residents is far below market value. The good news is that the decision to do this is not finalized. Say what you will about our system of government but the people about to make this decision are just that, people. These people have names and will listen to the voice of the community. Make your voice heard; go to www.helpoutyourneighbor.com and help the supervisors make the right decision to keep our neighbors in their homes.
