Welcome!

Welcome to the Blog for Pemberton First. We're interested in helping to preserve the rural character of Pemberton Township that we have all come to love...join us as we petition the Township officials trying to change it.

Our Mission Statement:

The consequences of farmland development are a greater burden placed upon natural resources, increased demand on water supplies, increased housing density, congested roadways and a higher demand on all municipal services. Once we lose our farmland it's gone for good. Pemberton First is committed to encouraging the redevelopment and improvement of our neighborhoods and revitilization of the Browns Mills Town Center.

Pemberton Planning Board Draft Master Plan

At the last meeting of the Planning Board they once again discussed the draft master plan as presented to the board and made (almost in its entirety) available to the public on the township website. The board directed Ragan Design Group to summarize the changes that are to be proposed for the draft plan and present them to the Planning Board members at the regular meeting for April 2nd. It is not anticipated that these comments will be provided to the public in a manner that encourages comment at the meeting on the 2nd, but we can cross our fingers!

We encourage everyone to attend to hear whether or not their comments have been considered and implemented within the proposals to be presented that night. The regular board meeting begins at 7:30 pm. We hope to see many residents at the April 2, 2009 meeting at 7:30 pm in Room 10 of the Municipal Building.

just noticing that according to the DVRPC website, Pemberton has neither a Environmental Resource Inventory nor Open Space Plan. Don't really know what it entails, but it would seem that before you attempt to change anything affecting either - in a Master Plan, one should have the Inventory and Plan.

Here's the link I used to view it

WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLANNING

The state has adopted new rules that affect all of us and how our sewerage (public & private septic) will be handled. Please take a look at the new rules by visiting the DEP website.
