WALKABLE LEDERACH PROJECT

The Township hosted a public workshop on June 15^th, 2023 to gather input for the Walkable Lederach Feasibility Study. More than 80+ residents and community members attended the meeting and provided input on potential ways to make the village more walkable, connect the village to other areas of the township, accommodate traffic, and retain the historic character.  If you missed the meeting or you have additional comments to provide after attending, use the links below to review the meeting materials and provide comments.  Feedback received at the Public Open House, and during this public comment period, will be used to refine potential improvements for the Village of Lederach.  A second public workshop for the Walkable Lederach project will be held in Fall 2023.
