Gloucester County:
“The Gloucester County Planning Commission will hold a
public hearing at 7:30 tonight in the colonial courthouse to receive comments
on a rezoning application that would allow construction of 50 condominium units
at Gloucester Point. Moody Homes Holdings Corporation is the current property
owner, said planner Tripp Little. The site is located in the Gloucester Point
Magisterial District on the west side of George Washington Memorial Highway
(Route 17), across from the Gloucester Point Shopping Center.
Little said Moody Homes has applied to amend the Gloucester
County zoning map to reclassify approximately 11.09 acres from MF-1 conditional
(Medium-density multi-family residential) to a similar zoning designation that
would allow switching the format of the project. Moody Homes now wants to
utilize a condominium form of ownership for the 50 units without any age
restrictions, rather than the same number of units sold as duplexes with
fee-simple development proposed to be built by another developer who never
built anything on that site.
The Gloucester County Board of Supervisors will have the
final say on the rezoning request and will schedule a hearing on the matter
later. Little said that board approved an age-restricted project for adults 55
and older called Magnolia Point for that property in January 2005 for applicant
K&S Land Holding. Magnolia Point was never built, Little said, but part of
a road leading into the project was completed as well as a pumping station that
has never been brought on line.”
