Chapel Hill Neighborhood Group Announces Formation Of "The Middletown Smart Growth Bloc"

Who we are:

In 2014, amidst the controversy of the proposed development of a private, all-girls’ high school on Chapel Hill Road, concerned residents formed a community group to promote informed and conscientious land use, The Chapel Hill Neighborhood Group.

Exasperated by a lack of concern in Town Hall, that group evolved into a “bloc” of voters; the Middletown Smart Growth Bloc (MSGB). We will vote as one for the candidate(s) who will promote smart land use, protect our natural resources, and preserve our quality of life.

The Bloc will extend well beyond the boundaries of Chapel Hill, reaching out to our neighborhoods experiencing “development crises,” our environmental advocates, as well as other concerned citizens.
We are a non-partisan group and, as such, are extending an invitation to all candidates to contact us. We will give any interested candidate a platform to discuss their vision of “Smart Growth.”

What we do:

Prior to the election we will back the candidate or candidates that best reflect The MSGB Mission:

• To Protect our environment and quality of life
• To Save wetlands, woodlands and natural habitats for local wildlife
• To Preserve rural and historic corridors
• To Increase Open Space Funding and allocate it to best serve the above goals
