Current Land Use and Zoning
Broadview Estates is zoned Residential-Medium Density (R-MD) with a small northern portion dedicated to industrial.
The Residential-Medium Density (R-MD) District is established to accommodate single-family & two-family residential dwellings at existing densities in the areas so defined. The object of the regulations in this District is to maintain the suburban character of the area and to discourage large concentrations of intensive development.
The Industrial District is primarily intended to accommodate limited manufacturing, wholesaling, warehousing, research and development, and related commercial or service activities which in their normal operations have little or no adverse effect on adjoining properties. Provision is also made for a wider range of assembling, fabricating, and manufacturing activities as conditionally permitted uses, provided they can meet the standards necessary to insure that the effects of their objectionable characteristics on adjoining properties can be minimized.
NEIGHBORHOOD AMBASSADORS
Neighborhood Ambassadors are essential to the success of any strong community.
Neighborhood Ambassadors serve as a local point-person for information in your part of the Township. Ambassadors are charged with promoting improvements, identifying problems, and informing neighbors about beneficial services and programs.
Ambassadors may volunteer just a little bit of free time, or choose to devote significant efforts toward neighborhood projects that connect neighbors. Organize a block party or help build community by chatting over the fence.
Neighborhood Ambassadors receive ongoing support and guidance from the Township Administration and the Department of Community and Economic Development.
By building a team of neighborhood-level leaders, the cumulative impact of this positive force will expand. Ultimately, the neighbors who volunteer as Ambassadors lay the groundwork for lasting excellence and long-term community pride.
