A hearing on an appeal seeking to reverse the Jewish Discovery Center’s plans to build a dozen cabins on its property has been postponed.
The Waverly Twp. Zoning Hearing Board planned to hear the appeal filed by Terrence and Margaret Neville on Monday at 5 p.m. but the appellants asked that it be postponed, according to a legal notice in Thursday’s Times-Tribune.
Officials have not set a date and time for the new hearing.
The Nevilles appealed the permit issued to the center for its property off Miller Road, which allowed plans to build the 12 cabins to move forward.
The 865-square-foot cabins will be built behind a synagogue and home with access via gravel drives and walkways. Each will accommodate up to six people, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a living room. The plans include waterlines and electric facilities.
Residents who opposed the plans argued the cabins will affect the township’s character.
