BEDMINSTER, NJ — President Donald Trump is proposing to build another ballroom. This one will be located in New Jersey.
The applicant, Lamington Farm Club, doing business as Trump National Golf Club, is seeking amended site plan approval for property at 900 Lamington Road in Bedminster.
The proposal is to build a two-story addition to its existing clubhouse, creating a new ballroom and adding a new parking area, according to application documents obtained by Patch.
The application is seeking bulk variance relief for maximum lot coverage, where 5 percent is permitted and 5.56 percent is proposed.
The application also seeks any other variances, waivers, permits, approvals or licenses found necessary during review by the applicant or the board.
A public hearing on the application was originally set for June 11 with the Bedminster Land Use Board. However, the applicant requested that it be postponed.
The hearing is now scheduled for Aug. 13 at 7 p.m.
This ballroom application follows the construction of a controversial, opulent $300 million White House ballroom.
The Washington D.C. 90,000-square-foot addition has already resulted in the building's east wing being entirely demolished to make room for it.
