Warriors Mark Township will once again make funding available to township residents and farmland owners in 2004.
\n\u201cWe set aside $10,000 a year in our budget (for land preservation),\u201d said Stuart Neff, chairman of the Warriors Mark Township supervisors.
\nThe program has been in place since 2002.
\n\u201cThe purpose of the program was to make additional funding available to those also participating in the (Huntingdon) County\u2019s version of the program,\u201d said Neff.
\nThe money for the township program comes from regular funding sources including the earned income tax and real estate transfer tax.
\nThe funds accrue from year to year. There is now $20,000 available plus the additional $10,000 for 2004, as no one has yet taken advantage of the available money according to Neff.
\nPreviously, the Huntingdon County Agricultural Land Preservation Board announced the next sign-up period for submitting applications for consideration under the County\u2019s Ag Land Preservation Program will start on Jan. 1, 2004.
\nThose applications will be accepted until 4 p.m. on March 31, 2004.
\nTo receive the county application, interested parties should contact the Huntingdon County Conservation District at 627-1627 to receive an application.
\nThose wanting additional details on the township program can write to Warriors Mark Township, P.O. Box 114, Warriors Mark, PA 16877 or contact the township secretary at 632-7223.
\nOne additional note: The next Warriors Mark Township Supervisors meeting has been changed to Monday, Jan. 5, 2004 at 11 a.m. for the purpose of reorganization and the conducting of regular business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
