After a groundswell of concern in the Township about the impact, both aesthetically and physically, of large homes taking the place of smaller homes on large lots, Township Committee indicated Monday night that it could move toward re-examining the municipal zoning codes to stem so-called "McMansions."
The winds of change blew hard in Princeton Township in the early 1990s. It was January 1992. Republican Larry Glasberg had just been sworn in to his first, and only term, on Township Committee, and with that, came a four-to-one party majority, with the lone Committee Democrat, Phyllis Marchand, back in the minority only three years after her Democratic colleagues, then a majority, voted for her to serve a one-year term as mayor.
Twenty-two Princeton University students have been admitted to Corner House counseling center for alcohol related problems since January, just 16 fewer than admitted through all of 2005. And while that number can be viewed as encouraging evidence that more students are seeking help for an increased level of binge drinking, several officials, including University administrators, find it alarming.
