Hi Friends, I wanted to let you know that we've passed a critical fundraising threshold on the GoFundMe to stop the secret no-bid Melrose Pool developer deal.
 
As soon as we get a docket number from the Commonwealth Court (expected this week), Chris McCabe will take over representation. I truly believe that having an expert specialist lawyer will be the difference in winning this appeal and stopping this bogus deal.
 
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your generous support. We've raised almost $7,000 in just under a week! With that said, I ask that you continue sharing the GoFundMe with people in your network and encouraging them to contribute. Reaching our goal of $15,000 will ensure that we have quality legal representation through the entirety of the proceedings. Small donations are greatly appreciated, and it's possible to donate anonymously if that makes a difference for anyone. Glenside Local covered our fundraising efforts this past week. Sharing this petition will also continue to increase pressure on the Township to drop its defense of the bogus no-bid deal. 
 
Together we will stop this deal and have a real shot at saving Conklin Pool!  Thank you!
