Conservation Opportunities for Corridor Preservation and Community Development

In Chester County, PA, between Route 1 and Route 30, Route 41 passes through or near nine communities with high development pressure that also contain extensive prime farmland, headwaters to five significant stream systems, and/or vibrant downtowns and villages. Brandywine Conservancy used a cost of community services study to examine how potential development would affect the ability of local governments and school district to provide community services.
