During a recent township meeting, community members voiced strong objections to a proposed development project adjacent to the Prudentown Historic District. Concerns were raised about the potential impact on local traffic, congestion, and the overall aesthetic of the area.

One resident highlighted that while the property in question is not within the historic district, its proximity raises questions about whether the boundaries of the district should be reconsidered. The resident emphasized the interconnectedness of the neighborhoods, noting that residents can easily walk between them.

Another speaker, Mark Horan, echoed these sentiments, expressing discontent with the project due to anticipated increases in traffic and a negative effect on views and the local golf course. Horan criticized the decision to sell the property without consulting club members or nearby residents, suggesting that the community's interests were overlooked in favor of profit.

The meeting underscored a growing frustration among residents regarding development decisions that they feel disregard the community's character and needs. As discussions continue, the future of the proposed development remains uncertain, with community members advocating for the preservation of open space and local heritage.
