Comstock Township - November 13, 2025 Planning Commission Meeting Meeting
The Comstock Township Planning Commission addressed several key issues affecting the community. A significant portion of the meeting was devoted to public comments regarding a rezoning request by Redwood USA for a multi-family housing development, which was met with strong opposition from residents concerned about traffic, infrastructure, and community character. The commission also reviewed updates to the chicken ordinance, allowing for more hens on residential properties based on lot size. Additionally, the commission held a public hearing on the battery energy storage system (BESS) ordinance, discussing potential locations and safety concerns. The meeting highlighted community engagement and ongoing efforts to balance development with maintaining the township’s character.
