The resolution urges the Cranbury Township Committee to reconsider its decision to use eminent domain to seize the historic Henry Farm, a 21-acre property that has been in the Henry family since 1850. The current owners, Andy and Christopher Henry, have invested significant resources into maintaining the farm and are opposed to the township's plans, which are aimed at meeting state-mandated affordable housing requirements. The resolution highlights the strong community support for the Henry family, with residents advocating for alternative sites for development and questioning the township's compliance with state housing mandates.

Additionally, the resolution calls for broader state reform regarding the use of eminent domain, arguing that the current approach could lead to food insecurity by replacing farmland with housing. It emphasizes the importance of preserving agricultural heritage in New Jersey, particularly in Cranbury Township, which has a long-standing tradition of farming and has successfully preserved over 2,000 acres of farmland in recent years. The resolution seeks to protect the Henry Farm and align local actions with the state's goal of permanently preserving farmland, urging the township to explore other options for meeting housing needs without compromising agricultural land.
