From the transcript
So May 5th, 2025, the Borough Assembly voted to approve Ordinance 2025-04, the Marine Industrial Overlay. This is what I'm told was the set in stone. This will be used for marine use only. This was done in conjunction with the Army Corps permit that was authorized, and with those two, the Borough came to an agreement with the feds that they're only gonna use this land for certain things. Due to the above, I was directed by the borough manager to start looking into other options.
