Historic Preservation Plan Element Limited updates are expected for this plan element. We will address any changes in laws or regulations, as well as policy decisions by the Township that affect this plan element. Community Facilities, Utilities and Recycling Plan Element This plan element will address existing and potential future needs for community facilities.

We will assist with other means of outreach such as using the Township’s website and encouraging residents, merchants and other interested parties to send feedback to the Subcommittee by e-mail and regular mail and/or by dropping off comments at the municipal building and other locations.
