Land Trust Suggested To Save Islands
December 09, 1988|by SCOTT BIEBER, The Morning CallA land trust may be the best way to preserve islands in the lower part of the Delaware River from development, recreational abuse or other man-made threats, residents of the river area and federal officials said last night.
Several land trusts in the region will be invited to explain the idea to island owners and concerned residents at a meeting to be scheduled in the next few months, the National Park Service told about 20 people in Doylestown who had come to discuss a park service study of the islands.
The NPS study was made at the request of U.S. Rep. Peter Kostmayer (D-8th) and U.S. Rep. Donald Ritter (R-15th), who said residents had expressed concern about the need to manage and preserve the islands.
