Giving Away The Farm.  

Posted by Mr. Ellsworth Toohey

Is there anyone out there that is buying the claims made by Pennrose Properties that only 25 units of the proposed 48, will be available for Chester County Housing Authority clients? There should be a few conditions placed on this development. The first is that 50% of the units should be "non vouchered" units (units not publically subsidized). The second should be that the Community Garden stays intact. The third is that there needs to be some coordination between Fllmore Village (proposed by Dave Moskowitz adjacent to the site) and Pennrose Properties in regards to the access of the site.

Pennrose is asking for a zoning change to allow for a 50% increase in units. That is quite signifigant. If they are asking the Borough to change its zoning to the financial benefit of the developer it would seem only right for there to be some return.
