THE LAND

The property is fully wooded and sits on the east side of Chris Gaupp Drive. Three of the lots line up along the road, and the fourth adjoins them directly behind, so the four lots form one connected site. There is an existing home to the north, and the land around it is mostly wooded lots. The lots are vacant, with no structures, wells or septic systems on record.

ZONING AND PINELANDS

The lots are in Galloway Township's Planned Office (PO) district within the RG Regional Growth area of the Pinelands. The Pinelands adds rules on top of township zoning. Residential use is not permitted under the current zoning. Using the land for a home would require a rezoning application approved by the Pinelands Commission, and possibly a use variance. The district's minimum lot area is 1.15 acres, so the four lots together meet the minimum and cannot be split into smaller building lots.

WETLANDS

Wetlands are mapped within two of the lots. A wetlands delineation is required to set the actual wetland boundaries and buffers, and those will affect where a building, parking and utilities can go. Buyers should plan on a delineation as part of their site planning.

UTILITIES AND BUILDING

Galloway Township reports that public water and sewer are available. Power is on the road, and there are homes nearby. There is no perc test on record, and none should be needed with public sewer available. Before building, buyers should confirm permitted uses, setbacks, utility extension costs and Pinelands requirements with Galloway Township Planning and Zoning.

LOCATION

The property is in Galloway Township with an Absecon mailing address, in the greater Atlantic City area of South Jersey. It is served by Roland Rogers Elementary, Galloway Township Middle School and Absegami High School.
