The Cranbury Historical & Preservation Society will sponsor the Cranbury Colonial Fair & Spring Picnic at the 1713 East Jersey Cottage site in Millstone Park. The Sons of the American Revolution and BSA Troop 52 will open the celebration with the presentation of colors. Colonial music, food vendors, Colonial games, re-enactors, demonstrations, and several local shoppes will be there! Come for the community celebration and see how far the renovation of the 1713 East Jersey Cottage has come since being moved to Millstone Park in the Fall of 2019.

I hope you’ll take part in some of these events this weekend!

Once again it has to be mentioned that Gil& Bert’s is serving people way past the 9:30 cut off. What’s the problem? You have have already been notified of this and it continues. If business want to operate in a residential area they need to comply with the rules. Next offense and a official complaint will be registered with the township.

[anon-37o4]

Hey anon-q03q - when are going to drop the repeated anon complaints about Gil and Bert’s open past 9:30? Have you ever complained about this on TC public comment or talked to the G&B owners or are you just too spineless that you can only post on an anonymous board? I’ve always seen G&B always turn people away at that time so maybe you should get a life and find something else to complain about. And if you really want to live in residential area, you shouldn’t live on main where there are businesses… Cranbury Greene and Shadow Oaks are pretty quiet in the PM - go there…

F-Off. Tool

The closing time restraint as condition of approval needs to be enforced. So does the Giant Camper across the street needs to be fined as it is in violation of the zoning regulations. Seems to me a formal complaint to the zoning officer is the next best step.

I've got no dog in this fight but it's a straight up lie that they turn people away after 9:30. And its ridiculous to say that if a business doesn't comply with the rules it agreed to when it opened that anyone upset should move.

[anon-02r9]

Every time I’ve gone there to get ice cream after 9pm, the kids that work there let the people know who is the last person for the evening so they end by 9:30. I have no association with G&B, just love their ice cream. But I agree with the other poster and cringe when I see that RV across the street, and disrespectful sign. As for the comment saying, “don’t EVER tell me where to live” - sounds like someone is a bit unhinged… (All Caps = CRAZY). Again, maybe this person shouldn’t live near a business if they can’t handle happy people eating ice cream - and hide behind anonymous message boards.

We all know Cranbury.info is the place to resolve issues. 😂

[Signs Signs everywhe-s010]

"Disrespectful Signs" are everywhere, it all depends on your perspective. They could put up a ligament "F.J.B." sign and there is nothing anyone could do about it. Same could be said for B.L.M. signs as some people disagree with their ideals. Thankfully we have the 1st Amendment to protect our freedom of expression for both sides of the isle.
Also, so if you own a house on Main St. you aren't allowed to own an RV? Let's take that one to court and see who wins after spending thousands of taxpayer money. How is it affecting your quality of life? Does it make noise at all hours of the night? Are there lights on it shining in your windows? If so different story. If not worry about your own property.

[anon-p0q2]

There is no code in the books that says an RV can’t be in one’s driveway. If you see it then show it.

[anon-o33p]

150-36:A(2)
House trailers and recreational vehicles. One unoccupied house trailer or recreational vehicle owned by the property owner shall be permitted on a lot. The trailer or vehicle shall be garaged or parked no closer to the side or rear property line than the required side or rear yard setback for the principal structure upon the lot. The trailer or vehicle shall be parked behind the face of the principal residential structure even if the structure is located behind the required front yard setback.

The code as stated is correct and for some strange reason the Zoning Officer is not enforcing the code. That RV Trailer needs to be removed as it only adds to the disgraceful mess that was Cranbury Pizza that burned down and has been left to rot as an eyesore for years!!!
The committee members and Administrator need to take some action and not be so politically correct.

[Really?-s010]

This is really what you want to waste your time on? Someone owning a camper that YOU don't like? Post your address and let's all see what is wrong with your house according to "zoning" that we don't like.
