Borough of Pennington Land Use Plan
The Land Use Plan for Pennington Borough, an element of its Master Plan, is designed to guide zoning and redevelopment by providing recommendations for amending land use standards to reflect the Borough's vision. Key objectives include promoting housing affordability and diverse housing types, fostering economic development in downtown and Route 31 districts, streamlining development procedures, enhancing climate change resiliency through managing flooding and stormwater, and preserving historic properties. The plan also focuses on creating affordable housing units, expanding accessory dwelling units and duplexes, continuing redevelopment planning for the former Borough landfill site, and balancing residential and nonresidential uses to stabilize tax rates. This is intended to ensure a welcoming, healthy, safe, and sustainable community for residents and visitors alike.
