Developer seeks Mount Laurel approval to build two homes on Marne Highway on industrial-zoned property.

An East Brunswick developer is scheduled to ask the Mount Laurel zoning board's approval to subdivide property and build two residences in an industrial zone adjacent to the Conrail right of way on Marne Highway.

Aegis Properties LLC and Blueridge Realties LLC seek to build at 3246 and 3248 Marne Highway, although the property "does not front on an approved street," according to a review by Joseph M. Petrongolo of Turek Consulting LLC of Moorestown, the Zoning Board of Adjustment planning professional. The Conrail tracks separate the property from Marne Highway.

The zoning board meeting begins at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the Township building at 750 Centerton Road.

Just over one acre, the property near the Hartford Road intersection has two existing houses, borders a large solar energy installation and is across Marne Highway from the Gables apartments.
