Doggy Day Care Proposed To Be Built In Hillsborough

HILLSBOROUGH, NJ — A proposed application to demolish a barn and build a doggy daycare in its place in an area zoned for agricultural purposes is going before the township on Wednesday night.

The Hillsborough Board of Adjustment will hear the application filed by Nassau Dog Daycare on April 6 at 7 p.m. at The Peter J. Biondi Building, 379 South Branch Road, Hillsborough.

The application is looking for two variances from the township to demolish an existing barn, construct a 4,289-square-foot kennel and re-construct an existing 864-square-foot garage.

The existing single-family home will remain on property at Block 202, Lot 15.01 at 200 Willow Road (formerly 300 Township Line Road).

A variance is being sought as the property is currently zoned for agricultural uses only. A second variance is being sought for minimum yard setback which requires 75 feet. Currently, there is a 30.84 feet setback and the proposal will change it to 53.76 feet.
