"Plumstead skips open space bond vote this year"

By Freda R. Savana, Intelligencer, March 8, 2010:

Plumstead residents will not be voting this year on whether to borrow $10 million to preserve open space.

A weak economy is largely to blame, said township officials, who had hoped to bolster Plumstead's dwindling land preservation coffers with a fresh influx of money. Plans call for the question to be on the November 2011 ballot. . . .
