This acquisition is driven by a highly publicized, yet short-notice land swap involving Pennsylvania State Game Lands in Limerick Township, Montgomery County. While this may seem like good news for Delco, Montgomery County residents are concerned. The land swap on the Limerick side is located adjacent to property that is zoned Heavy Industrial, with the potential for warehouse or data center development.

Limerick Board of Supervisors, understandably, opposes the land swap: Action News Story here.
