Subsequent to site plan approval, the site was granted subdivision approval to vacate an existing right-ofway and thus accommodate a new circulation pattern into the development (Planning Board Resolution 2207). The development was completed in 2024, and certificates of occupancy were issued on December 11, 2024. As of the writing of this Plan, all units are occupied. Of the 64 total units, only 17 credits could be applied toward the Township’s Third Round RDP obligation, due to caps on age-restricted units during that Round. The remaining 47 credits from this development were applied to the Third Round Unmet Need. See Appendix G for documentation. 51
