A proposal from Public Service Electric and Gas Co. that includes clearing 591 trees from an Evesham Road property in Cherry Hill to make way for an electrical substation is scheduled to go before the zoning board on Thursday.
Many of the targeted trees are more than 20 inches in diameter, measured at breast height, according to an inventory filed with PSE&G’s application to the Township. One red maple is listed at 35.6 inches in diameter and a tulip tree is 37.5 inches.
The substation would border Evesham and Voorhees on land now owned by Congregation M’kor Shalom. The synagogue’s 21 acres would be subdivided, with nearly 11 acres purchased by PSE&G. The new “Echelon Substation” would go on about three acres, with the balance never to be developed, according to the utility.
