Sustainable Voorhees
taking inventory
of townships creative
assets with survey
By ZANE CLARK
The Sun
Sustainable Voorhees is running a survey on arts and culture,
and the group needs help from
members of the public.
Sustainable Voorhees is asking
all those who live, work or play in
Voorhees to go online and fill out
a quick survey related to the
townships creative assets.
After some brief questions to
determine how long participants
lived or worked in Voorhees,
theyll be asked to provide keywords they best believe describe
the community. Then participants can list the special places,
activities or people they believe
make Voorhees distinct, such as
the Voorhees Town Center.
The culture and history of

Fake parking
tickets placed
on vehicles
The Voorhees Police Department has been made aware that
an unknown person is placing
fraudulent parking tickets on vehicles in the parking lots of the
Club at Main Street.
The tickets, which claim to be
from the Voorhees Police Department, claim that vehicles are illegally parked and must pay a violation fee.
The tickets have spaces where
the vehicles make and model, license plate number, and date and
time of offense have been written
in by hand.
Police say management at the
Club is aware of the situation and
is not involved in placing the fake
tickets.
If residents see someone suspicious in the area, police ask that
they call the department immediately.
Police say persons who are
falsely representing themselves
as police officers will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

building has been without tenants for some time, there was
not much evidence of dilapidation only a few awnings coming
apart and some debris in certain
offices.
Clarkin said it was obsolescence and discontinuance of use
that classifies the building as in
need of redevelopment more than
anything else.
Clarkin also suggested some
parking areas at the complex be
included for redevelopment as
well, just to make redevelopment
more attractive if the process
were to move forward.
Upon the conclusion of
Clarkins presentation, the planning board listened to input from
members of the public, many of
whom sought to clarify that no
residential units were going to be
affected by the process.
With the board and its solicitor
addressing residents concerns,
the board ultimately agreed with
Clarkins report.
Solicitor Stuart Platt said the
recommendation and findings
would now go back before
Voorhees Township Committee
for a final vote on the complexs
redevelopment status.
According to Platt, areas determined to be in need of redevelopment allow governing municipal
bodies more freedom in how the
uses for those areas are zoned,
but at this time it was premature
to say what, if anything, might
someday be built.
Platt said this was only the beginning of a very long process,
and if the Voorhees Township
Committee eventually agrees
with the boards findings, the
owners of any properties who
wished to move forward with actual redevelopment would still
need to appear before the planning board and township committee many more times.
Platt also said if any other
parts of the complex were looked
at for redevelopment at a future
time, the process for those properties would have to start from the
beginning with another study
and analysis by the township.
