We are residents of Lancaster, MA committed to responsible and sustainable development. We came together in 2022 to object to the rezoning of residential land into a massive warehouse development.
We contribute to dialogue, education, and action focused on a more livable and sustainable future for Lancaster.
Lancaster is currently threatened by the growth of multiple mega-warehouse developments.
Over 1 MILLION square feet of warehouses have been approved by the Lancaster Planning Board in the last year, and a further >2.4 MILLION square feet are proposed. There are also proposed plans for massive warehouses in Lunenburg that will abut Lancaster neighborhoods.
Right now, critical decisions are being made in Lancaster's local boards and committees.
We need everyone's attention and input to create our future.
The red circles on this map show the approximate location of proposed and approved warehouse complexes in Lancaster, MA. The warehouses are located in critical environmental and water resource areas and will negatively impact our air and water quality, in addition to worsening traffic safety concerns and threatening our quality of life.
We think there's a better future ahead for Lancaster, one where we can increase tax revenues and meet affordable housing goals WITHOUT risking the future of our town. Let's not trade Lancaster's beauty, natural resources, and quality of life for projects that may ruin it.
LET'S KEEP LANCASTER LIVABLE!
We would like to thank Peter Christoph for generously allowing us to use some of his nature photos that were taken right here in Lancaster. The aerial photo of the giant mega-warehouse was taken in Raymond, NH with a drone camera.
