On Oct. 1, the Lawrence Hopewell Trail celebrated theopening of another mile of trail in Lawrence Township,which stretches 5,000 feet from Bristol-Myers SquibbsPrinceton Pike campus through the Lawrenceville Schoolgrounds, with Lewisville Road connecting the two seg-ments.

With the completion of this trail, 80 percent of the 22-mile project is now constructed, said Eleanor Horne, co-president of LHT.

The project is expected to be finished in 2014.The trail was thought of as an enduring gift to the res-

idents of Hopewell and Lawrence, as well as the residentsof Mercer County, and it has become just that, she said.When finished, these trails will connect Lawrence andHopewell and run through some of the most beautifulscenery in our area.

The new eight-foot-wide asphalt trail runs from Prince-

ton Pike on the undeveloped BMS property, past theBrearley Oak and around the northern tip of the proper-ty. It crosses Lewisville Road and connects directly withthe Lawrenceville School at its baseball field parking lotbefore winding its way through campus.

The LHT held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for this newtrail where the two segments connect on Lewisville Road,which was attended by county and township officials, dig-nitaries, beneficiaries and supporters.

The SunAfter three months of discus-

sion, the Planning Board on Sept.30 unanimously approved CostcoWholesale Corp.s application tobuild a 156,822-square-foot storeand gas station on the vacant lotat 4100 Quakerbridge Road, adja-cent to the intersection atLawrence Station Road.

The members only ware-house will include a pharmacy,optical services station, tire sales

and installation center, liquorstore and free-standing gas sta-tion with 16 pumps, according tothe site plan.

The 36-acre lot is currently pep-pered with vacant office build-ings that used to make up thePrinceton Research Center, whichwill all be demolished by the de-veloper, said Jim Parvesse, secre-tary to the Planning Board andzoning officer.

Parvesse said the land wasoriginally zoned as residential toaccommodate senior housing thetownship had plans to constructyears ago. However, it was re-zoned for commercial use lessthan a year ago to allow for devel-opment such as Costco.

Costcos facilities will sit on16.8 acres of the 36-acre site,which is divided into three lots.The other two lots have the poten-tial for future commercial devel-opment by the current owners,Princeton Office Park, L.P.

Parvesse said the property iszoned to permit a gas station,which will sit on approximatelytwo acres.

Once constructed, the new sitewill include 680 parking spaces.There will be two driveway en-trances on Avalon Way, one oppo-site of Avalon Bay and one nearQuakerbridge Road.

A sidewalk will be providedalong the Costco frontage on

Quakerbridge Road, as well as acrosswalk at the site driveway in-tersection with Avalon Way.

There was also significant dis-cussion about traffic and site cir-culation, however, the proposedplan addressed all of the con-cerns, Parvesse said.

The new facility also took itsresidential neighbors into ac-count, and will be implementingtimers for store and parking lotlights, according to the site plan.

Theres also a landscaping planfor berms along Avalon Way.

At the Township Councilsmeeting on Sept. 2, following theapproval of Costcos application,Mayor Jim Kownacki personallythanked Township ManagerRichard Krawczun, the PlanningBoard and other township offi-cials involved with the process.

The new site is expected to becomplete in the fall of 2014,according to Costco representa-tives.

The Lawrenceville School,founded in 1810, boasts formerCEO of The Walt Disney Compa-ny Michael Eisner, White Housepress secretary Jay Carney andHall of Fame sportswriter BobRyan as alumni. The prestigiousschool is now making headlinesfor an entirely differentreason.

After 124 years, the schools in-tramural house full contact foot-

ball league is moving from play-ing tackle football to flag. Citingconcerns over declining partici-pation and injury risks, the

change came as a surprise toalumni as well as current stu-dents.

I appreciate how importanthouse football is at Lawrenceville,and I am optimistic that, by play-ing non-contact football, we willbe able to continue this cherishedtradition into the future. The rea-son so many Lawrenceville tradi-tions have endured is becausetheyve been able to evolve as cir-cumstances change. Im lookingforward to an exciting season forall of Big Reds football teams

Board president ThomasCarter echoed Duffys sentimentsin a letter posted on the schoolswebsite.

We had planned to discuss thefuture of house football at our fallboard meetings, Oct. 10 and 11,and will do so in the comingweeks, taking into considerationthe many suggestions we have re-ceived from alumni. Unfortunate-ly, this years low participationforced our hand this season be-fore that broader conversationcould occur. Please know that this

Last week, the town council in

Moorestown passed an ordi-

nance. Town councils every-

where pass ordinances all the time. Its

part of what they do, the process by

which they enact, or in this instance

repeal, rules and regulations.

But this particular ordinance thatMoorestowns council passed on Oct. 7

is especially pertinent, not just for that

town, but for many others throughout

the state.

The ordinance in question repealed

a pay-to-play ordinance that was origi-

nally passed on Aug. 19. That ordi-

nance sought to bring the townships

political contributions policy in line

with that of the states.

Controversy arose, however, when

the details came out contribution lev-

els to candidates for council increased

from $300 to $2,600 for professional

business entities and from $500 to

$7,200 for a political action committee.

Thats a lot of money for a local elec-

tion.Not surprisingly, a committee of

residents gathered almost 1,400 signa-

tures opposing the ordinance, and

fewer than two months later, it was off

the townships books.

We think this was a good move by

the council. Were all for pay-to-play

ordinances that protect local towns

from being run by outside influencessuch as corporations or other political

entities. Local politics, more so than

any other form of government, should

be about the residents of the town.

Local elections should be about the

candidates involved and what they

will do for the town and its residents.

Period. It shouldnt be about what

businesses want to see or political

machines want to see. Its about the

people.

Ironically, we believe Moorestowns

initial contribution limits would be

more effective in eliminating corrup-

tion than the pay-to-play ordinance the

council passed in August. As such,were happy to see it was rescinded.

However, we do encourage the

Moorestown council, and all local

councils, commissions and commit-

tees in New Jersey, to pass regulations

on contribution limits, if such regula-

tions arent already on the books.

Its election season, and as we watch

debates and read about issues from

candidates at the state level and hear

of even more trouble at the federal

level its hard not to lose confidence

in the honesty and integrity of politics

today.

But local elections and local politics

dont have to be that way, as long as we

control it.

in our opinion

Under our controlLocal elections dont have to get out of hand

Your thoughts

Do you think municipalities should havestrict pay-to-play ordinances? Or do youthink local politics can govern itself?

made with both the welfare ofLawrenceville students and thelong tradition of house tacklefootball in mind. Head Master LizDuffy and her administrationhave a found a solution that keepsthe house football tradition alive,albeit changed.

The school did not share num-bers on the participation rate inthe House Football League but adecline would hardly be unique.While football remains the most

popular sport in high school, withthe National Federation of StateHigh School Associations count-ing more than 1 million players,participation has declined each ofthe past four years. Alumni ar-gued the school is disregarding atradition that helped make theschool what it is.

As an alumni, I can say thatLawrenceville House Footballwas one of the shining momentsof my time at Lawrenceville, andone of the memories that I will

miss the most. To bastardize this125-year tradition is madness.Lawrenceville will certainly beunder the microscope from thou-sands of alumni. And we will cer-tainly be speaking through ourdonations if this continues,class of 2009 alumni MichaelChan said.

Other alumni spoke highly ofthe house program, saying it al-lowed high school-aged boys whohad never touched a football intheir lives to play within a team.

But according to school officials,one of the problems was that, in-creasingly, those kids didnt wantto play, and perhaps felt forced to

join, given that participation inthe House Football League wasdwindling to the point wherehouses couldnt register the mini-mum eight players to put together

a team.A Bring Back House Football

group was created on Facebookand quickly gained more than 190members. A petition was also cre-

ated citing that the student bodyand alumni were not given anynotice or opportunity to commenton the change.

The school declined furthercomment, saying the issue willcontinue to be discussed internal-ly with the input of current stu-dents and alumni.

Alumni argue school is disregarding longstanding tradition

Mercer County ExecutiveBrian Hughes, whos been in-volved with the effort since theLHT began 11 years ago, said thissegment is a great addition to agreat trail.

On behalf of Lawrence Town-ship Mayor Jim Kownacki, Town-

ship Council member Dr. DavidMaffei congratulated the LHT onits accomplishments.

Much time, talent and devo-tion have been given to make thistrail a reality for the entire Mer-cer County community, he said.Our runners, bikers and thosewho take pleasure in strollingwith nature have gained anothervaluable asset to enjoy here inLawrence.

Because construction bids forthe primary segment came in

below estimates, the LHT, withhelp from Lawrence TownshipEngineer Jim Parvesse, was ableto extend the construction projectin partnership with theLawrenceville School.

The segment around theschools athletic fields fits wellwith the terraced fields, and byusing recycled gravel and otherconstruction materials, theschools supervisor of buildingsand grounds, Tim Moore, wasable to reach all the way to the in-terior campus road and still beunder budget.

Liz Duffy, headmaster at theLawrenceville School, takes ad-vantage of the trail often and saidit wouldnt be what it is todaywithout the determination, per-sistence and can-do optimismof Horne and Becky Taylor, whoenvisioned and founded the LHT.

Our mission as a school is toinspire and educate students to

become responsible leaders. To

achieve that aim, its essentialthat we, as an institution, modelwhat it means to be a responsibleleader, she said. This bike pathrepresents not only the long-standing ties between the schooland the community, but also ourshared commitment to environ-mental sustainability.

The construction of this seg-ment was funded by a $248,000grant, provided by the WilliamPenn Foundation through the

Delaware Valley Regional Plan-ning Commissions RegionalTrails Program.

When the William Penn Foun-dation funded us to create the Re-gional Trails Program to supporttrails, it was with the vision ofcreating a network of trails, saidChris Linn, senior environmentalplanner at DVRPC. We lookedfor groups that shared their mis-sion of overcoming the chal-lenges of building trails and link-ing them together into a larger

network, and the LHT group andall of its supporters really getthat challenge and have reallyrisen to it.

BMS has also been a key playerin the development of many ofthe LHTs trails, having con-tributed more than $2.5 millionover the last decade, according toFred Egenolf, director of corpo-rate communications and com-munity affairs at BMS.

For this segment, BMS provid-ed landscaping enhancements, in-cluding split rail fencing, bench-es, special plantings along thetrail and a permanent easement.

Bristol-Myers Squibb initiat-ed creation of the trail in 2002 andhas remained our most generoussupporters, Taylor said. Theopening of the BMS PrincetonPike segment is a tremendouscontribution to the trail.
