Two days later, the Planning Board had the Wawa plan at 67 Cooper Road and 69 Route 73 and the RP 201 Laurel Road apartments on its agenda. Minutes are not posted yet, so the outcome is not yet on record.

Gloucester Township: a 743-unit plan waits two weeks

US Home, LLC's application (ZB 26-010) for 743 residential units was postponed at the Oct. 14 Zoning Board meeting because the applicant's planner was ill.
