About Save Montgomery
A grassroots movement of concerned residents working to preserve the character and quality of life in Montgomery Township, New Jersey
Why was SaveMontgomery formed?
Montgomery Township has submitted the Fourth Round Housing Plan Element and Fair Share Plan to the State. There are many people in the town who are upset with the process and the plan the Township Committee adopted to satisfy the fourth-round obligation.
A group of concerned Montgomery residents are joining together to discuss next steps for a formal challenge which has an August 31st deadline. We believe that the current plan does not adequately protect our community's rural character, open spaces, and quality of life that make Montgomery Township special.
Who is involved?
Save Montgomery is a grassroots organization made up of residents concerned about the future of our town and unconstrained development. Our members include:
- Long-time residents who have witnessed Montgomery's transformation
- Young families who chose Montgomery for its rural character
- Environmental advocates committed to preserving open spaces
- Community members from all walks of life united by a common goal
Our Mission
SaveMontgomery.org is a grassroots organization of concerned residents working to preserve the character and quality of life in Montgomery Township, New Jersey.
