This data, updated as of May, 2013, should not be considered to represent an exhaustive list of projects due to be heard by one of Hawthorne's boards.  Please refer to the agendas of the Planning and Zoning Boards for current pending applications.  An application to the Zoning Board of Adjustment indicates that a proposed project does not fully comply with current zoning and therefore requires one or more variances before development could occur.  Listing of these projects here should not be considered endorsement by the Borough.
