The meeting addressed a proposal for a lot line change at 1391 Cedar Grove Road, involving the conveyance of land to adjacent properties on Claudia Circle. The plan includes demolishing accessory structures and extending a sanitary sewer easement. Waivers were requested for topographic contours, water courses, utility details, and DEP sewage planning. Concerns were raised about water runoff from future development on the property. The commission recommended approval contingent on Zoning Hearing Board approval and subject to the waivers.

The meeting included a roll call and the nomination of Mike Noonan for Chair and Nick Siano for Vice Chair. A preliminary/final land development plan was discussed for 136 4th Avenue, involving the subdivision of one lot into two and the construction of a new duplex residence, with recommendations for approval contingent on adherence to Township Engineers' comments on storm water management, maintaining the property's historical look, and compliance with Fire Marshall comments. Additionally, a preliminary/final land development plan was presented for the construction of a Garden Mausoleum at S.S. Peter & Paul Cemetery, with approval recommended subject to adherence to the Township Engineers' comments.

The meeting included discussions and recommendations regarding two land development plans. The first plan involved subdividing a lot on 4th Avenue to construct a new duplex, addressing various zoning and stormwater management requirements, including waiver requests and comments from the Township Engineer. The second plan focused on constructing a Garden Mausoleum at S.S. Peter & Paul Cemetery, addressing stormwater management, erosion control, and compliance with Township regulations.

The meeting included discussion of a proposed amendment to the zoning code, specifically Section 300-14 regarding the definition of Municipal/Government Facility. The amendment aims to clarify that while the township or county can have these types of uses, it excludes certain facilities like dwellings, residential housing, overnight facilities, group homes, schools, institutional residential care, rehabilitation, confinement facilities, hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and similar health facilities. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the change to the zoning definition.

The meeting included a discussion regarding an ordinance amendment to re-zone certain tax parcels from Residential and Institutional to Open Space. The purpose is to conform with the County's intention to preserve the property as open space. The County was notified and may not approve this change of zoning. The goal is to have the property conform to the preservation of forest area and recreational space. There are no formal or informal plans for the property. Public comments were heard regarding the zoning change and potential uses of the property.
