Urgent - Your help is needed!!!!!

I had the pleasure, earlier this week, off attending a township meeting in a neighboring township.
I'm not in the habit of attending township meetings in my own township so why did I schlep to another township and crash their meeting???
Here's why:
Under the guise of "open Space" this township is planning on building a new park. Sounds nice, doesn't it? Apparently a survey was put out to township residents and the findings were that the township needed more open space. Had I lived in said township, I probably would have voted for more open space. Who doesn't want more open space??? However when I hear "open space" I define it as undeveloped land that is being protected from developers. So new new houses or shopping centers can be built on that land. If you wan to make it a park where families can spend time in the great outdoors, well that's nice, too. Still sounds nice, right???
Well, what if I said that in order to build this park, a number of families would have their land taken away? They would be offered a fraction of what that land and their homes are worth and they would have to move themselves and their horses somewhere else. These are families who have owned this land for many many years. Their children and grandchildren have grown up being able to ride horses and ATV's on the property, they have a beautiful garden where they grow fruits and vegetables that are shared with friends and neighbors. And now because Pekiomen Township wants a new park, they are being forced out.
IS THIS STILL AMERICA????
That land is their legacy. It is theirs to leave to their children after they are gone. It is theirs to enjoy for their remaining years on this earth.
Please, whether this affects you or not, whether you live in Perkiomen Township or not, please take the time to help these families.
Pleas go to http://www.helpoutyourneighbor.com/ and sign the petition. You can also find the addresses for all of the people on the township committee and write them letters. You can send this link to everyone you know and print out copies of the flyer and pass them out.
If you can do nothing else, please keep these families in your prayers. Also, please pray for the Township Supervisors that they would have a change of heart and allow these families to stay in their homes.
These are good people. They are elderly and some of them are in failing health. They have served this community well as neighbors and taxpayers and what is being done to them is just, plain wrong!
Thank you for your time!
