MASTER PLAN CONSISTENCY REVIEW:


Master Plan Consistency Review of Township Committee Ordinance

2024-09 as amended.


The Board & Mr. Raymond briefly discuss the ordinance again. When this was initially referred to The Board at the previous meeting, Mr. Fox had made some revisions to the ordinance to keep it consistent with the master plan but missed the deadline. The ordinance is the same as previously discussed just needs to be amended due to formality.
