A massive church development is proposed for 28-32 Greensboro Rd. If allowed, this will undoubtedly change the character of the neighborhood, and the entire town of Hanover forever! The Zoning Board originally ruled against this proposal, but recently caved to a threatened lawsuit and reversed their decision.
The immediate effect of this development will be to change the character of Greensboro Rd, greatly increase the risk of flood damage in our area, and threaten the environmentally sensitive Mink Brook watershed. The long term ripple effect will be that our Zoning Ordinance will be rendered toothless and useless, and no area in town will be exempt from massive developments of this type. Eventually, the entire Greensboro Rd corridor from Rt 120 to the Great Hollow Rd will be swallowed up by commercial developments.
A group of neighbors and interested folks from around town have banded together to fight this disastrous proposal. We’ve launched this site as an easy way to collect and disseminate information about the plans.

The Red area represents the current size of buildings and driveways on the site. The Blue area represents what is proposed – 21,000 + SF building and 113 space lighted parking lot – almost one acre of pavement!
