Impact on Community Beyond Loss of Cultural & Historical Heritage

Impact on the Community

The impact of this development on the community extends well beyond the loss of cultural and historical heritage, it strikes to the very heart of Washington Crossing. The quality of life for residents of this small town will be degraded beyond measure. Consider the following projections:

Pollution of wetlands, stream, and canal

Deforestation of nearly 4 acres of hardwood forest

Light pollution from parking lot lighting

Loss of wildlife habitat

Impervious coverage of floodplain

Development of Revolutionary Ridge, with a crowded apartment complex will transform a semi-rural village beyond recognition, destroying the quality of life for all who live here.

Village or City? It's Your Decision.
