An aerial view of the Consolata Mission property, which was purchased by the township in May, 2017.
The land swap between the township and school district is all but a done deal with the Oct. 9 final passage by the Township Council of an ordinance approving it.
The Board of Education approved the deal at its September meeting.
In the deal, the district will get an approximately 13-acre parcel of land with three buildings on the former Consolata Mission property, and the township will get about six acres and the former Middlebush School on Amwell Road. The district has been using the school for its administrative offices.
