The settlement is a decade in the making as, Congregation Oros Bais Yaakov in 2013 filed an application with the township's zoning board seeking a variance and final site-plan approval for an all-girls school, the outlet said.

That application was denied the following year, and the congregation sued the township four months later.

The two-story school will be built on a lot bordering Lakewood Township near White Road and Galassi Court in Jackson Township.
