Ms. Sharon Lynn, Township Manager, announced that on June 11, 2003, the West Goshen Township Board of Supervisors had scheduled a conditional use hearing for this date for

Prior to the consideration of Resolution 19-03, resolving that the West Goshen Township Board of Supervisors will work through the West Chester Area Council of Governments with
its Public, Educational and Governmental public Access Channel ("PEG"), Dr. White stated that if West Goshen Township joined in the study portion of the PEG initiative that would not obligate the
Township to participate in the actual formation of the PEG.
Mrs. Evelyn Baker, 900 Sheridan Drive, asked what would be aired on the cable channel and Dr. White replied these issues were still being considered. He added that any
public airing of the public meetings for West Chester Area School District, West Chester University and West Goshen Township would be agreeable to the Board of Supervisors and West Goshen Township does
not want to spend taxpayer's money for use by other groups. Mrs. Baker urged the Supervisors to be cautious about being involved with this initiative.
