Supreme Court of New Jersey

Harold E. Vickers, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Township Committee of Gloucester Township, Defendants-Appellants

May 7, 196237 N.J. 232

Summary

The Supreme Court held that Gloucester Township's amendment prohibiting trailer camps in its industrial district—and thus throughout the municipality—was a valid exercise of its zoning power and was adopted in compliance with statutory procedures, reversing the Appellate Division and reinstating the Law Division's judgment. Justice Hall, dissenting, argued that the total prohibition exceeds the township's authority and should be struck down.
