HOUSING DEVELOPMENT THREAT 2024
A densely packed housing plan is a threat to lake ecology and tranquility.
In April 2024, the North Strabane Township Board of Supervisors granted conditional approval for the construction of 41 houses on two cul de sacs off of North Spring Valley Rd. along Peters Lake. The development threatens this pristine sanctuary. Friends of Peters Lake continue to work to protect the lake from this development. We will provide updates on this website and also on our Facebook group, “Friends of Peters Lake.” Read about the proposed development, below, and follow North Strabane Township government as the development moves forward.
Despite deep community opposition from throughout the region, on April 30, 2024, the North Strabane Township Board of Supervisors approved a conditional plan for 41 homes. Many requirements, conditions and approvals must still be met.
The Friends of Peters Lake are working with regulatory groups and contacting elected officials and environmental organizations to curb this development and
protect Peters Lake Park for generations to come.
