Stop Fearrington Preserve: Legal & Advocacy Fund
We are mounting a legal, engineering, and public notice advocacy campaign to oppose the 365-acre rezoning. Your contribution directly funds land-use attorneys, traffic engineers, and community organizing.
SmartChatham is committed to complete financial transparency. Any unused funds remaining in our independent advocacy fund following the conclusion of county rezoning proceedings will be donated as an unrestricted gift to local 501(c)(3) housing non-profits, including Chatham Habitat for Humanity . Chatham Habitat for Humanity is an independent non-profit and does not sponsor, endorse, or participate in this advocacy campaign.
