Boards & Advisory Committees

The Zoning Board of Adjustment has the authority to hear and decide appeals of any order, requirement, decision or refusal made by the zoning officer based or made on the provisions of the Township’s zoning ordinance. In addition, the Zoning Board of Adjustment hears and decides requests for interpretation of the zoning map or ordinance. A Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 525) is used to regulate and limit the uses of land, as well as the uses and locations of buildings and structures on a particular lot. Cinnaminson Township has nine different Residential Zones, and six different Commercial/Industrial Zones; each with its own set of requirements. Each Zone has a number of “bulk” requirements which include the maximum building height permitted, the minimum lot size required, the minimum setback to all property lines, and the maximum lot coverage by buildings. The Zoning Officer enforces the Zoning Regulations as defined in Chapter 525 to ensure the proper use of buildings and lands throughout the Township. The Zoning Officer can be reached at 856-829-6000 ext. 2396. The Cinnaminson Township Zoning Board of adjustment meets on the first Wednesday of each month at 6:30 PM in the Township’s Municipal Building. To schedule an appearance with the Zoning Board of Adjustment, please contact Ms. Lori Neely at 856-829-6000 ext. 2311.
