Solebury's "neighbor working with neighbor" is a unique preservation program. The Land Preservation Committee's (LPC) group of appointed volunteers is charged by the Supervisors to work with their neighbors in preserving Solebury's land heritage.
Easements in Solebury have protected many properties, both large and small. Farmland with prime agricultural soils, stream corridors, steep slopes, scenic vistas and historic sites have been protected. Since 1998, Solebury Township has preserved 89 properties covering 3,868 acres. An easement may be donated by the landowner, may be a 'bargain sale' (development rights sold at less than appraised value) or may be purchased by the Township for the appraised value of the development rights. Donations and 'bargain sales' offer the landowner tax benefits.
