Liberty Township weighs eminent domain over Charnita land
Liberty Township Supervisors study using eminent domain to condemn two Charnita sections AD and AE in northeast Liberty Township. Officials stress compensation, court injunction blocks residential development, and plan aims to sell land as farm acreage while seeking fair market value. Township officials expect possible tax base gains if land is developed or sold, but face opposition from lot owners and county inaction.

Building Slump Persists in Adams County as Permits Lag
May building activity in Adams County edged up in total value yet fell in project count and new homes. The county issued 57 permits worth 1,166,960 dollars, boosted by a 400,000 dollar Bethlehem Steel plant expansion in Oxford Township and a 150,000 dollar five family townhouse in Cumberland Township. Residential permits dropped from April and from May 1981, with nine new home permits totaling 362,000 dollars, while May 1982 saw 20 residential permits totaling 816,700 dollars, down from April. Overall yearly totals lag behind 1981, and non taxable construction reached 11,210 dollars in Littlestown.
