IN PRINT: Senior Citizens Battle to Preserve Community in East Windsor

Ever wonder what's going on outside the Orange Bubble(TM)? Well while you've been frittering your time away, studying and making merry, a mere twenty minutes in East Windsor away a battle rages on over the future of an age-restricted residential community (i.e. you've got to be 55 or over to live there, no exceptions). A new state law says that developers can put anyone they want into developments originally zoned as age-restricted.But the proposed East Windsor project has a sister community across the border in Hightstown, already full of old people! And they said they were promised that the new development would be age-restricted, too.So what did the attorney for the East Windsor school district, David Coates, say about the merits of keeping the AR-zoned community child-free?"Typically you have a population that isn't going to go out and raise hell on a Saturday night," said Coates.Whippersnappers!The real story, obviously, is a little more complex - so read about the fight at NJ.com.
