Master plan
(continued from page 8) A specific concern was expressed about the area where the U.S. Post Office is located. Audrey Artusio, who lives on Miller Road which intersects with Franklin Turnpike, claimed the post office area has been purchased by a developer who may want to construct three-story buildings and double-decker parking structures in the area where Cragmere residents travel from that part of the township under the railroad trestle to Route 17 and the schools on Ridge Road. Artusio also expressed a concern about the increased traffic that may be created in that area by the proposed Crossroads Mall that is currently before the planning board for approval. Burgis was contracted in 2006 to develop an updated master plan for the township. He presented the final version of that plan to the township’s planning board and the public in September after about two-and-a-half years of work and about 20 previous public meetings that were held to ensure that the updated plan reflected the concerns of the municipality.
