Letter: Schuylkill Center members should have a say in potential sale

Posted

“Members of the Schuylkill Center are part of a special community of nature and wildlife champions whose generous support furthers our mission to connect people with nature and preserve open green space in Philadelphia.”

So reads the website of the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education.Yet the Center has no plan to meet in person or even virtually with us dedicated members to discuss a mission critical issue - the sale of 24 acres of the center’s forested land and open green space for a housing development. I thank the Local for reporting on the center’s plans and especially for giving voice to champions of urban green space who feel cruelly betrayed by center leadership.
