MSW Land Use Team Secures Approvals for Cigar Establishment and Jersey Shore Properties

On Wednesday, February 24th, the Murphy Schiller & Wilkes (MSW) Land Use Team secured approvals for two exciting projects.

First, the Somerville Planning Board granted preliminary and final site plan approval in connection with the establishment of a retail cigar store on East Main Street. The applicant, Jersey Cigars LLC (which operates as Sticks Cigars) successfully operates Sticks Cigars in Rahway, NJ and will be bringing a similar concept to the Somerville location.

Chris J. Murphy, Esq. led the successful effort of behalf of the development team, which included architect Patrick Lesbirel of Brick City Reconstruction.

The same night, Roosevelt J. Donat, Esq. represented a client in connection with approvals for the subdivision and construction of two (2) single family homes in Union Beach, NJ. He was joined by architect Enkela Malellari from Brick City Reconstruction.
