Developer BET Wants To Write Their Own 
Zoning for the YMCA site.
 Your 
help is needed. Please attend Dec 11  
Planning Meeting & DEC 18th Hearing 
.
Protest the project & the hearing that was placed a week before Christmas 
–Dec 18 – to favor the developer  
Far over the # of units that should /would be allowed by current zoning – for 
OTHER areas , too  
Removing  community service use, 
something we need more of, not less. 
Opening the door for developers throughout the Township to begin to 
rezone Abington their way 
This “Center City zoning” will keep us all sitting in traffic, even for short 
trips.  
Other developers ( one recently proposed 60 units where it was zoned for 4) will 
use this as precedent 
Many other issues, besides density, prevail…..

residents 
               
and to the Commissioners that this is not 
in our interest.  
                            
Good communities are not “someone else’s job”
