The Chathams back preservation of Drew Forest
By Claudia Ceva for New Jersey Hills
“Jim Connelly of Mountain Avenue said Drew Forest is a “gem of a property that needs to be secured as open space” in a written comment read by Township Clerk Greg LaConte.
Connelly said though the property is in Madison, it borders the township and any development there would have a negative impact on the area. “It would be preferential to maintain Drew Forest as the high-quality open space it is,” he said.”
Chatham Borough is latest town to support Drew Forest preservation in Madison
“Following in Madison and Chatham Township's footsteps, Chatham Borough has become the latest town to state its support for the effort to save Drew University Forest Preserve from development.
The Chatham Borough Council unanimously passed a resolution to this effect at a meeting on Monday, Feb. 14, six days after the Township Committee did the same.”
