WORKSHOP & DISCUSSION
French & Pickering and the Center for Watershed Protection will present the results of a study on the importance of open space preservation in helping reduce the impact of poorly planned development and more intense rainfall events in northern Chester County.
This program is designed to help local municipal officials, planners, engineers, and the public to understand the role of land preservation as a cost-effective tool to help people, property and infrastructure prepare as our region experiences more intense storms and development pressure. All members of the public are welcome to attend.
This project was supported through the Land and Climate Grant Program, a joint initiative of Open Space Institute and Land Trust Alliance made possible with funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, Janes Trust Foundation, the J.M. Kaplan Fund, the Volgenau Foundation, and the William Penn Foundation.
