Cranbury Mayor Under Fire for Controversial Farm Acquisition

Cranbury, NJ Mayor Faces Backlash Over Andy Henry's Farm Acquisition Cranbury, NJ – Mayor Lisa Knierim's recent decision to authorize the acquisition of Andy Henry's Farm has sparked significant controversy within the community. The 21-acre farm, a family-run business for over 150 years, is slated for development, a move that has angered many residents. "The nerve of this woman," said one resident, echoing the sentiment of many. "A 150-year-old family farm is being taken away for affordable housing, but 150 other towns have already refused to do this." The video highlights the mayor's unopposed run for re-election, further fueling the community's frustration. Many feel the decision was made without sufficient public input or consideration for the farm's historical significance. The upcoming June 10th primaries will be a key moment to observe the community's response. While the Mayor's office has yet to release an official statement, the issue is clearly one that will continue to dominate local headlines. The situation underscores the ongoing tension between development and preservation in many communities, raising important questions about the balance between progress and the protection of historical landmarks.
