We, the undersigned residents of Haverford Township, submit the following comments on the draft Comprehensive Plan 2035:

1. We support preservation of the residential character of our neighborhoods and the Plan’s goals of “preserving residential neighborhoods by protecting the existing housing from…commercial encroachment,” reducing traffic congestion, and improving pedestrian safety.

2. Toward those ends, for clarification we request that the Plan:

a) Explicitly state that no new or more intensive commercial uses are intended for Haverford Road north of Ardmore Junction.

b) Make clear and consistent throughout the Plan that “Haverford Road Commercial Corridor” refers solely to the area of Haverford Road between the Ardmore Junction and Wynnewood Road “M” stations.

c) Indicate that areas designated as “Commercial” on the land use maps encompass both office and commercial districts, and that the Plan does not propose changing office districts into commercial districts.

d) Add the Township's current Zoning Map to the Appendix.
