Dear Neighbors
We need your help now, and we’re asking you to take a few minutes, to make a comment in support of the Pinelands Commission proposed Black Run Rule.
The time for public comments is ending. A developer is threatening to build behind us. Please just do this now.
It’s as simple as this. Use one of the methods below and write a short email with your name and address and it can be as simple as:
“I’m writing in support of the Black Run Rule, to protect the pristine watershed and forest.”
Or
“Please pass the Black Run Rule and preserve the vital watershed in Evesham Township! ”
The NJPC must take public comments before the Rule can become law. That’s where you come in.
You can comment and support the plan by email only up until August 15. Please do this now so you don’t forget!
Here are the details on how to email the NJPC in support of the Black Run Rule:
EMAIL/ FAX or LETTER
Written testimony may be submitted by email (preferred) through the PC website at:
