Summary

The township committee introduced Ordinance 13 to add an Affordable Housing Overlay Zone B (AHO-B) to the zoning code and amend the zoning map; a public hearing is scheduled for May 28 at 5 p.m.

The Egg Harbor Township Committee introduced Ordinance 13 to add a new Affordable Housing Overlay Zone B (AHO-B) to the municipal zoning code and to amend the zoning map.

The ordinance, described by a township official as an amendment to chapter 2-25 adding subsection 2-25-40.2 (Affordable Housing Overlay Zone B) and updating section 2-25-7 (schedule of area, yard and building requirements), was introduced for first reading. A public hearing on Ordinance 13 was set for May 28, 2025, at 5:00 p.m., when members of the public may comment on the zoning changes.

The meeting record shows the ordinance was introduced and that the roll-call vote to introduce was unanimous (Ellis, Hodgson, Pauls, Rosenberg, Fromer). No substantive discussion of the overlay’s boundaries, development standards, or projected housing units was recorded during the introduction; the committee scheduled the public hearing for further consideration and public testimony.
