Summary

Bridal Township approved a conditional use allowing Saint Barnabas to use the 19,000-square-foot Michael Baker building for storage; the county expects a lease for board consideration next week.

Bridal Township approved a conditional use application allowing Saint Barnabas to use the former Michael Baker building for storage, a solicitor's office update said. The approval clears a zoning step that the county said it needed before finalizing plans to move county storage into the site.

The solicitor's office said the county has "all of the procedural stuff in place through the township approval" and that the agenda for next week's commissioners meeting will include "a lease with Saint Barnabas to lease the Michael Baker building approximately 19,000 square feet for storage purposes." The update said loading machines and additional equipment will be placed in the building after the election.

The solicitor's office also said the county had been evaluating the building as a place to move storage out of other county lines and described the township approval as "a big step forward." The county did not record a final lease approval during this work session; the lease is scheduled for the commissioners' agenda next week.

Ending: No vote on the lease was recorded at this meeting; the transcript indicates the matter will return to the commissioners for formal action at a future meeting.
