PRINCETON RIDGE
For several months, the Princeton Zoning Board has been hearing testimony from a developer who wants to build the Morgan Estates on Bunn Drive. The site was not one of those chosen for the nefarious zoning "overlays" several years ago, and with good reason. The site is halfway down the hill and already prone to flooding. Speaking for the developers, the engineers clearly have not done their homework. For example, they did not know that they would have to blast bedrock to build on the site. The zoning board is aware how unprepared and ignorant the developers are. There is large opposition to the development, which would create market-rate age-restricted housing. We suspect that the delays might be intentional, in order to wear down the opposition, but the cluelessness of the developers is too well done to be fake.
