Ask Bensalem Township to Condemn Philadelphia Gun Club Wall

DEAR FRIENDS,

Last week we showed you how the large, ugly wall built by the Philadelphia Gun Club to hide their cruel pigeon shooting had degraded and a large section of it had collapsed. SHARK filed a complaint with Bensalem Township code enforcement and sent a letter to the Mayor and Council.

You can read the letter HERE.

This is how bad the wall was on December 27, 2011.

Just a few days later, December 31, 2011, the wall had collapsed even more!

Predictably, the Mayor and Council have not responded to our letter - it's now time to amp up the pressure on Bensalem Township!

Please politely call and email the Mayor and Council and ask that they take action immediately to have the wall condemned and the PGC sanctioned.

215-633-3601

To contact the Council, send an email to this address for the clerk, and ask her to forward your message to the members of the Council.

You can mention Bensalem Township Article II, Property Maintenance Code: "All accessory structures, including detached garages, fences and walls, shall be maintained structurally sound and in good repair."

Close up of what remained of the wall on December 31, 2011.



Kindest Regards,  

Steve Hindi and Your SHARK Team
