The Township of Washington Zoning Board on Sept. 16, 2025 memorialized a resolution approving an extension related to work at 346 Fern Street, Block 4409, Lot 53. The item memorializes a previously authorized extension and records that the applicant paused work because of employment and financial uncertainty but now expects to resume and finish the project within months.

Board minutes record that a one‑year extension was granted in October 2024 to Sept. 1, 2025, and that the applicant later requested another extension prior to the August meeting. The applicant told the board that job‑security concerns led to a pause; he testified that the employment situation has stabilized and that he expects the project to be completed within about eight months. The current resolution memorializes the board’s earlier action; the board opened and closed public comment on the item with no speakers raising issues.

On roll call the resolution was approved by the members present. The board noted no additional conditions beyond those already in the previously adopted resolution; if the applicant fails to meet conditions or commencement deadlines, the owner would need to return to the board.
