Manchester zoning board cancels special meeting over publishing error

Manchester, NJ – A meeting of the Manchester Township Zoning Board of Adjustment set for Monday, September 29, was abruptly canceled after officials said the township failed to meet statutory notice requirements due to a publishing error.

A notice on the township’s website stated the cancellation was necessary because the meeting had not been properly advertised as required by law.

The meeting had been scheduled to hear an application from Congregation Mikvah of Pine Lake Park. In a letter dated September 23, the applicant’s attorney acknowledged the error and informed the township that the hearing could not legally proceed on the planned date. The attorney requested the matter be rescheduled, suggesting November 20 as a potential new hearing date, pending availability of board members and a venue.

An updated public notice will be issued once a new date is confirmed.

Key Points

  • Manchester Township canceled a September 29 zoning board meeting due to improper public notice.
  • The meeting concerned an application from Congregation Mikvah of Pine Lake Park.
  • The applicant’s attorney has asked to reschedule, suggesting November 20 as a possible date.

The township will now reset the calendar after a paperwork misstep stalled the proceedings.
