The petition claims the Lansdale development will burden the taxpayers and adversely affect the community because the developer is not contributing to “inadequate infrastructure” and “overcrowding of schools.”

They want a smaller site, larger lot sizes and the developer’s financial responsibilities to be expanded, according to the petition.
