UPDATE -- AND A THANK YOU...

   

The battle for the Fell House is far from over, but the citizens of Allendale and those who cherish our great American heritage have cause for celebration.
   The Deep Pockets who wish to develop the Fell House property are formidable opponents, but the Planning Board voted 6-0 to to reject the application, without prejudice.
    We understand that the vote will be memorialized at the next regular scheduled planning board meeting tomorrow (Thursday, Nov. 20). After that, it is unclear what will happen.
    In the meantime, we wish not only to thank all the volunteers and concerned citizens and American heritage lovers for their tireless efforts, but we also wish to thank two groups for their expertise and support -- the New Jersey Conservation Foundation and the Fyke Nature Association.
   Thank you, all!
