Who/What is the Garrett Hill Coalition (GHC)?

The Garrett Hill Coalition (GHC) was formed on October 17, 2007 to change Radnor Township's planning process in the development of the Garrett Hill Master Plan and Overlay District so the people of Garrett Hill can direct and create the future of their community.  The GHC wants to ensure that the Garrett Hill community will be protected from adverse zoning changes.  Further, the GHC wants to seize the opportunity to preserve and enhance Garrett Hill.  To this end, the GHC has elected officers, set committees and put forth nine (9) Steering Committee Members who will serve on the Garrett Hill Steering Committee and who will act as representatives for the residents and stakeholders during the development of the Garrett Hill Master Plan and Overlay District pursuant to the Radnor Comprehensive Land Use Plan of 2003.

COMMUNITY UPDATE:

Dear Friends of Garrett Hill,

Congratulations! On October 26, 2009, the Board of Commissioners adopted the GHZD Zoning and SALDO ordinances as recommended by the Garrett Hill Steering Committee.

It's been two years since our community stepped forward and asked to be included in the re-zoning process - the future of Garrett Hill was at stake. With the adoption of these ordinances we've come a long way towards providing a foundation for our collective vision to be realized as changes inevitably occur over time.
My thanks to all of you for your contributions to this extended effort. The power of the group is much more effective than that of a single individual - and that's what Garrett Hill is all about. We are a neighborhood that watches out for one another and has everyone's interests at heart.

Thank you again.

Patti Barker
Chair, GHC
