hvwebster Dear Neighbor:

This letter is a follow up to the Forest Greens/Perryman Community Association (FGPCA) annual fall meeting held on November 14, 2007 where a draft community development plan was discussed. At that meeting the Development Committee of the Forest Greens/Perryman Community Association presented details of the impending development of the Perryman Peninsula. County officials have suggested as a community that we prepare our strategy to clearly state our community issues. Volunteers have prepared the enclosed summary brochure designed to introduce you to our more thorough and complete draft called "FGPCA Development Committee DRAFT Report for Sustainable Growth" which describes the association's vision and plan for a sustainable quality of life on the peninsula. Please review the brochure to gain insight to the future and how your participation as a resident and landowner in Perryman can assist in reaching healthy community goals.

The fact is that the Department of Defense base relocation and closure (BRAC) has expanded Aberdeen Proving Ground operations. According to state and local officials, the APG expansion will undoubtedly have a tremendous effect on the nearby Perryman Community. Our volunteers have organized years of information from studies completed in the area. The draft is our plan to articulate the Community's concerns and make recommendations for growth and be an important part of future development. Our goal is to preserve the health of our community forests, wetlands, waters, wildlife, and history of the Perryman Peninsula and at the same time assist in sustainable development.

The FGPCA has made it possible for you to communicate with our development committee. The committee members will explain the importance of everyone's participation in this effort by holding a future open meeting. Prior to the public meeting our volunteers will record your comments and responses as community input from the Perryman Area. Please contact the FGPCA Development Committee to respond to our request for your opinion on the quality of life on the Perryman Peninsula by January 25, 2008. To view a full copy of the draft, please visit this page.

"Our vision is to help shape a community where integrated planning and urban design contribute to an improved civic and natural environment to enhance quality of life, sustain economic development, and maintain the community's unique identity and heritage." It is very important for us to represent the goals of the association membership and residents that are a part of our community to achieve our goals. Thank you for your participation.

 
Sincerely,

Harry V Webster, Jr.
Forest Greens/Perryman Community Association, Inc.
