With all the new buildings popping up around town, development has become a hot topic here in Red Bank. The Planning Board, Zoning Board, Redevelopment Agency, Historic Preservation Commission, and Environmental Commission all have a part to play in the approval process for those planning new projects or desiring to make changes to existing structures. It’s complicated and governed by NJ State land use laws and local ordinances with oversight by Red Bank’s Department of Planning and Zoning.
Red Bank’s Director of Community Development Shawna Ebanks presented information about the process here in the library on October 14th. You may view the video of Planning for Development on the Red Bank Library YouTube channel or check out Ms. Ebank’s PowerPoint here.
Additional sessions about the Redevelopment Agency and Affordable Housing in the borough are being planned. Stay tuned to our calendar or Facebook for scheduled dates. You can also sign up for our weekly newsletter through the form at the bottom of the page.
