Jackson Planning Board Discusses Impact of Star Ledger’s Digital Shift on Public Notices

During the latest Jackson Planning Board meeting, members addressed the potential implications of the Star Ledger’s move away from print editions on public notices. The discussion clarified that recent legislation allows digital publications to serve as valid public notices until at least March, potentially extending beyond that date.

The meeting featured the annual reorganization of positions within the board. The members unanimously supported the nominations, appointing several personnel such as Joseph Sullivan as Vice Chair and Robert Shay as the Planning Board Attorney. Owen Little and Remington & Vernick were reappointed as the Planning Board Engineer and Planner, respectively, securing continuity in these roles. Additionally, Laura Morrison was reaffirmed as the Planning Board Secretary and Recording Secretary.

The board also carried over a series of development applications to future dates, including those from Jackson Development Company and Bellw Estates LLC, among others. Each application was assigned a new date, with notices required for some of them.
