500 pound property gorilla

If they haven’t already; I think the East Brandywine Board of Supervisors will soon realize that in Pennsylvania school boards are the 500 pound gorillas of property law. Pennsylvania school districts can override almost all municipal property laws. The school district can get whatever it wants.

As far as traffic; the school district is responsible only to the first intersection in either direction.

I was never to a Brandywine meeting but my guess is that the school districts attorney’s outnumber the townships about four to one.
