TOWNSHIP POSTPONES HOSPITAL HEARING
New Date To Be Announced - we'll let you know as soon as the township decides when and where. Read this Times Herald article for more information! Hearing for hospital zoning challenge postponed.
Thank you to all our volunteers who distributed fliers to every household in East Norriton Township! We covered from Trooper Rd to Arch Rd, from Johnson Highway to Township Line Rd. The entire township!
Statement from the Township on May 8, 2008: "Township Manager Helmuth Baerwald said Thursday afternoon that an apparent strengthening in the organized opposition to the hospital proposal had convinced township officials the middle school gymnasium would not be large enough to accommodate a large crowd of interested residents."
Originally scheduled for May 14, 2008 - Einstein Hospital at Woods Golf Center Legal Challenge Public Hearing has been postponed by the Township. New date to be announced.
NOW is the time to show you care!

The Lawsuits
Press Release April 14, 2008: Residents Sue Township. Two challenges to the zoning changes for the proposed Einstein hospital at Woods Golf Center have been filed. Our legal team feels Einstein and the Township have committed multiple violations of the PA Sunshine Law and Municipalities Planning Code. It is not likely the ground breaking for this hospital can take place until all the legal challenges have made their way though the court system .... and that could take years. See coverage in Times Herald April 16.
