Land Use Board finds Block 25 Lot 57 (Public Works site) meets redevelopment criteria; board accepts report
Summary
The board accepted a planner’s report concluding that Block 25 Lot 57 (the township Public Works Building) qualifies as a non‑condemnation area in need of redevelopment under criterion H; the motion passed 6‑3 on Oct. 22, 2024.
The Oxford Township Land Use Board on Oct. 22 accepted a report finding that Block 25, Lot 57—the township Public Works Building parcel—meets the Local Redevelopment and Housing Law criterion H and therefore qualifies as an area in need of redevelopment (non‑condemnation).
Township Planner Timothy M. O’Brien told the board that he provided the report to the board secretary and that the parcel satisfies the statutory standard he evaluated. The board secretary confirmed the notice for the public hearing had been published according to the law.
Mr. Ott moved to accept the report recommending Block 25 Lot 57 qualify as an area in need of redevelopment; Ms. Hoffman seconded. The board voted Ayes 6, Nays 3, Abstain 0; motion carried.
The vote sends the planner’s findings to the Township Committee as a formal recommendation. The transcript does not specify remediation plans, proposed uses, or any budget figures related to the parcel; those details would be determined later if the Township Committee acts on the recommendation.
