As we look to the future, hopefully the best features of older development in the Township will be preserved and extended into new development.

Historic buildings and lands should be preserved and restored in a sensitive manner, with appropriate new uses. Older neighborhoods will remain strong and stable, with a higher percentage of homes being owner-occupied.

Large areas will continue to be farmed and substantial areas of woodland preserved, providing attractive visual relief between developments, recreational activities and further promoting the rural nature of the Township that residents are used to.

The creek valleys will be preserved, some in public greenways and trails. Plentiful high quality ground water supplies are available with large amounts of stormwater recharging the water table. The creeks will also continue to have high water quality, with benefit of erosion controls. Conservation easements will aid in ensuring the permanent preservation of large areas of open land.
