Help support your neighbors who are speaking out against
“The Crossings at Conestoga Creek”
The shopping center across from Long’s Park

Here's what we need to do...

Go to your calendar for Tuesday August 21st, Wednesday September 12th, and Tuesday September 25th. Sometime between 5:00 PM and 10:00 PM on those days, write the ONE-HOUR you will commit to attend the Manheim Township Commissioners’ Meetings. Let’s make it a goal that every resident of Lancaster County join their fellow neighbors of Manheim and East Hempfield Township neighborhoods and “spend ONE HOUR” of that one day with the one purpose to Expand Long’s Park and in opposition to the shopping center. Let’s keep the room packed all night with neighbors coming and going!

Manheim Township Commissioners Meeting
Municipal Office
1840 Municipal Drive
Continued Public Hearing for
The Crossings at Conestoga Creek
5:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m.

"Also uncovered in the hearings was a letter dated August 29, 2006, which is signed by Manheim Township manager Jim Martin on behalf of the Manheim Township Municipal Authority.
