The Senate 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 necessity of displacing active farmland to address housing needs.

Additionally, the resolution calls for broader state reform regarding the use of eminent domain, arguing that the current approach could exacerbate food insecurity while attempting to solve a housing crisis. It emphasizes the importance of preserving agricultural heritage in New Jersey, particularly in Cranbury, which has a long-standing tradition of farming and has successfully preserved over 2,000 acres of farmland in recent years. The resolution ultimately seeks to protect the Henry Farm and align local actions with the state's goals for farmland preservation.
