A representative identified as Nick appeared June 17 on behalf of Mount Laurel LLC (Evan German) requesting a height variance to accommodate a large single‑story garage. He told the board the structure is intended for vehicle and equipment storage and maintenance and that the design nests into the hillside to reduce visual exposure.
