Commission presses applicant to add rip-rap apron and keep fencing to protect wetlands at Throckmorton Vehicle Storage
Summary
The Freehold Township Environmental Commission reviewed amended plans for Throckmorton Vehicle Storage (SP# 654-1-25) and emphasized a stone rip-rap apron and retention of perimeter fencing to limit erosion and protect nearby wetlands and riparian zones.
The Freehold Township Environmental Commission on July 13 reviewed amended Preliminary & Final Major Site Plan SP# 654-1-25 for Throckmorton Vehicle Storage (75 Bannard Realty Corporation, Block 6, Lots 24.01 & 25-257-259 Throckmorton Street).
The applicant amended plans to include a stone rip-rap apron along the fence line adjacent to the existing basin "to reduce soil erosion from the overland flow from the parking areas," and stated that "existing fencing around the parking area is to remain and will protect the environmentally sensitive areas (wetlands & riparian zones from any on-site use)." Commissioners examined the amendment as a mitigation measure and treated the rip-rap apron and permanent fencing as key protections for on-site wetlands and riparian buffers. The Commission recorded the amendment as part of the applicant's response to the Commission's 9/8/2025 review. The discussion did not show a formal vote; the minutes record the Commission's review and acceptance of the amendment as part of ongoing site plan conditions.
