The Newtown Gate Master Association, representing nearly 400 households and more than 800 residents, raised urgent concerns in a November 13, 2025 letter to supervisors following a sudden wave of parking tickets.
The Newtown Gate HOA boards are seeking a collaborative path forward to address both the parking limitations and safety issues. They requested an immediate step to relieve the current hardship: a temporary moratorium on parking ticket enforcement along Fountain Farm Lane. They urge the Board to reconsider this option, citing the newly unified position of the three HOA boards.
For longer-term, data-driven solutions, the HOA strongly urges the Board of Supervisors to commission a professional, township-funded traffic engineering study. The key objective of this study would be to determine the viability of changing the road's classification from an arterial road to a non-arterial road, which could potentially allow for parking in designated areas. The study would also assess whether additional stop signs would slow traffic and discourage cut-through driving.
Finally, the HOA hopes the Township will address concerns regarding communication and transparency, specifically regarding the origin of the enforcement directive and the sharing of traffic monitoring data.
