I see that this story has been corrected to remove references to it being either inside, part of, or associated with Chatham Park or its developers (though the initial para on the CNR home page has not been).

More important is the issue of why Commissioner Shipp stated that the project couldn't start development (and lacked "a defined timeline"). What he referred to was lack of available sewer capacity for the project, not merely now, but currently planned.

With the new transfer sewer line to the Sanford sewage plant under construction this reveals how little extra sewer capacity this would provide for the town. While that line would carry up to 2 million gallons a day (MGD) of the town's wastewater, the town couldn't pay for construction, even with a low interest state loan, so Chatham Park Investors is paying a large chunk of the loan payments, and in return gets that share of the treatment capacity reserved for future use.
