On December 12, 2022, the Joint Planning/Zoning Board of Adjustment for the Borough of Runnemede granted preliminary and final major subdivision approval with related waivers to allow for the construction, establishment, and maintenance of a 102-lot residential subdivision.

The project will consist of 96 attached townhome units in 17 buildings, with the remaining lots for stormwater management facilities, accessory parking, and related site improvements in and upon the property.

We will continue to update this story as information becomes available.

At the conclusion of a hearing conducted on March 23, 2022 before the Runnemede Joint Planning/Zoning Board of Adjustment, variance relief was granted to D.R. Horton NJ/PA for the construction, establishment, and maintenance of 96* two-story attached residential townhome units and related site improvements on property located along Hartford Drive and Evesham Road.

(*Note, when we first posted this story, we reported that the application sought approval to construct 108 townhomes. We did request a copy of the Resolution relating to this application and also filed an Open Public Records Act (OPRA) Request for the meeting minutes. We will provide further updates once this information is received.)
