An application by an Islamic education center to open on Marlkress Road in Cherry Hill is scheduled before the Township zoning board on Thursday evening. The hearing was postponed from August.
Inspire A Learner LLC, a family-run operation, wants to convert a vacant office building at 1155 Marlkress Road between Cardone Avenue and Allison Drive into a youth enrichment and education center.
The proposed center is not a permitted use in the Township's Industrial Restricted Zone, according to a traffic study from Bowman Consulting Group Ltd. of Burlington. Inspire A Learner, which now operates at 1878 Route 70 East in Cherry Hill, owns the property, according to its application.
Inspire A Learner seeks a use variance, minor site plan approval and bulk variances from the board.
"The center will operate year-round and serve children and youth ages 2 to 18 through a range of structured programs designed to support physical, social-emotional, and cognitive development," according to Inspire A Learner's project overview.
