Overview: During a recent Princeton Planning Board meeting, the application to formalize outdoor dining at the Ivy Inn was met with overwhelming public support and received approval from the board. The establishment, which has been serving the community since 1975, sought to replace its temporary vinyl canopy with a more permanent outdoor structure, a development that aligns with Princeton’s master plan mobility goals. This change will enhance the community space while addressing zoning and parking requirements.

Overview: The Princeton Planning Board, in a special meeting held via Zoom on June 25, 2025, unanimously approved a crucial fourth-round housing plan and fair share plan for 2025 through 2035. This plan is essential to shield the municipality from potential “builder’s remedy” litigation, which could permit developers to bypass local zoning in favor of constructing high-density affordable housing projects. The board faced a pressing deadline of June 30 to adopt the plan, a requirement that, if unmet, could leave Princeton vulnerable to litigation and unwanted developments.
