[Adopted 6-6-1995 by Res. No. 95-10 (Part
9, Ch. 3, of the 1987 Code)]
The Open Space and Environmental Resource Protection
Plan as proposed by the Montgomery County Planning Commission and
the Borough of Trappe Planning Commission is hereby adopted, subject
to the following conditions:
A. The express intention of Borough Council is not to
condemn any land for open space and environmental resource as set
forth in the plan; and
B. If any property owner whose property is designated
as open space and for environmental resource protection as set forth
in the plan does not desire to sell the property to the Borough, the
Borough will not seek to purchase the same in fee or for an easement.
Council reserves the right to amend and revise
the plan by resolution to incorporate additional rights-of-way, easements,
or property available for open space and environmental resource protection
that would be compatible with the Open Space and Environmental Resource
Protection Plan hereby adopted, and to delete such property or properties,
in the future, by resolution, that are not otherwise compatible with
the Open Space and Environmental Resource Protection Plan as the Plan
is instituted hereafter.
Council recognizes that the Open Space and Environmental
Resource Protection Plan is a planning tool that will be reviewed,
modified, and revised to accommodate the objectives as set forth in
the aforesaid Plan, and the realities of obtaining rights-of-way,
easements, and properties for the development of the open space and
environmental resource protection as set forth in the Plan.
