The measure supports a transition to locally generated, renewable power and helps Montgomery County move toward its goal of having one-third of its municipalities committed to cleaner energy and healthier communities.
• Forum planned after antisemitic, racist graffiti found at Glenside park (pottsmerc.com subscription) — Abington Township residents are organizing an "Abington United" town hall this Thursday evening at Easton Road and Parkdale Avenue after racist and antisemitic graffiti was found at Glenside Weldon Park.
