CRANBERRY TWP — The Powell Farm Advisory Committee presented recommendations for the future of the property to supervisors during a meeting on Thursday, Dec. 12.

When owner Denton Powell died, his friend Andy Hack gifted the 150-year-old, 71-acre estate on Goehring Road to the township in March 2023. After completing a yearlong process to officially acquire the property, officials assembled the advisory committee about a year ago.

While meeting on a monthly basis, the 10-person committee drew up both short- and long-term plans for the township.

“It’s super exciting,” said township manager Dan Santoro. “I think the advisory committee did an outstanding job of coming together to make some recommendations while respecting all of the different stakeholders in the group.”
