This lawsuit was filed by David and Sandra Morrisette (plaintiffs) against the Town of Phillipsburg (defendents). The plaintifs sued for the purpose of vacating "warehouse ordinance" Ordinance 2022-30, which rezones the Peron Howard Street property in downtown Phillipsburg next to the Delaware River to Industrial, thereby paving the way for a warehouse to be built on the last 32 acres of undeveloped proptery in Phillipsburg along the Delaware River. Attorney Peter Dickson represented the plaintiffs and Attorney Michael Collins represented the Defendents.
This is considered a win for the residents of Phillipsburg, Phillipsburg Environmental Watch and the plaintiffs against the Town of Phillipsburg. The Town of Phillipsburg settled the case and "warehouse ordinance" Ordinance 2022-30 is now vacated.
