July 10, 2019 Middletown Planning Board Meeting - Village 35


I know I'm a little late to the party on this one, but it's still important to post.

At the July 10th meeting of the Middletown Planning Board, the Board unanimously approved the Village 35 project despite the concerns of many residents that were in attendance that evening. You can read what the Asbury Park Press had to say about ... HERE

Needless to say, other than the developer, there aren't many people happy about this decision. As designed, the Village 35 center is going to be a monstrosity and eyesore for anyone living or traveling in the vicinity of highway 35 between Tindall Road and Kanes Lane and beyond.

Many of those objecting to the size and scope of this project would like to see it downsized and some kind of passive recreation included. 

There has been a long history of law suits surrounding this development and i wouldn't be too surprised if that history is extended by a couple more.
