Various grants from County, State, Private Sector and matching grants are available. Per Mr. Sauser, to qualify for the County funds, the Board of Supervisors must be in a position to move forward with the County's Landscapes plan. A master plan for uses of the land is the best way to show eligibility. Some dollars will come from the Township treasury as matching dollars to the grant money. The public must decide if they want to purchase Brightside Farm and turn it over to others for preservation of the open space.
Rest is other income.
Mr. Wert quickly reviewed the proposed questionnaire to be publicly distributed and solicited from those present any additions or changes. There are many possible ways to preserve it and community input is needed. A question from the floor asking for the dates of additional meetings and when the financial picture will be presented. Mr. Sauser responded that we are here to determine the possible uses. Regularly scheduled supervisors meetings along with a possible special meeting could be held.
