Warehouse Restrictions Purpose Of Master Plan Review, Ordinance Amendment

LEADING THE DISCUSSION – Mark Healey, the Township’s Principal Planner, at the March 26 Planning Board meeting,where a proposed Master Plan reexamination and BI Zone ordinance amendments were discussed.

The Township cannot legally outright ban future warehouse development in Franklin, but officials hope actions that are planned for the next few months will give planners more control over where they are located and how large they can be, with a ban on warehouses of more than 400,000 square feet.

That process is coming to a head, with the review of a Master Plan Reexamination Report and proposed zoning ordinance changes to the Township’s Business-Industry Zone, affecting light industry in general and warehouses in particular, at the Planning Board’s March 26 meeting.
