During the recent Metropolitan Development Commission meeting on May 21, 2025, a significant discussion centered around the need for new commercial space to accommodate local businesses. One notable case highlighted was that of Justin Alexander, a tenant of a charitable trust in Wanamaker, who is facing space constraints due to the growth of his erosion control and small site development business.

Alexander, recognized for his professionalism and high-quality work, has established a strong reputation among local builders. As his business expands, the current location is no longer sufficient to meet his operational needs. The commission discussed the importance of finding a suitable new location for Alexander, emphasizing the positive impact this could have on both his business and the broader community in Warren Township.
