So that is how M&M starts off on the right foot, by suing the town for Mt. Laurel requirements? Why? I hope the MP environmental commission gets involved with this project to make sure that they follow all regulations and that the LSRP process is followed to a T! So the town is going to waste money on lawyers because M&M wants to push the town around?

Best thing M&M should do is sell, or donate, this property to the town for open space, ball fields and basketball courts. Looks like indoor basketball courts are at a premium, rec schedules have reduced games from 40 to 32 min. and total games from 10 to 5 because there are no courts available. And the town doesn't need new neighbors like this anyway.

How can the town schools absorb 25% more students. The taxes are so high, may as well build our own high school.

How can M&M sue for on a residential issue when the property is not a residential zone?

The plans for a strip mall less than a mile from the existing Main Street businesses in Morris Plains shows the developers are already in contempt of the current residents and small business owners in Morris Plains. 800 units with 800 parking spaces is another disaster waiting to happen. Transit oriented development close to train stations as in Morristown is a good idea. But this is just a scheme to make more money for the developers, destroy the wetlands, swamp the schools and sewage system, wreak havoc on Route 53 traffic unless provisions are made to
get to Morris Plains Main street and the 28 weekday trains already cut to Morris Plains since 2008 are restored. Along with restoring the 100% of Hoboken weekend trains cut since 2006. For Transit oriented development you need frequent transit, you need safe sidewalks and bikeways and probably you need shuttle service.
As currently planned this is a disaster waiting to happen with the current taxpayers and residents and small businesses in Morris Plains picking up the tab for all the downstream costs.
