The township is home to Lewis Morris Park along its eastern border with Harding and Morris Townships, and also contains part of Schiff Nature Preserve in the southwest. In all, approximately one-third of the township is preserved land. Mendham Township is located entirely within the Planning Area of the Highlands region.

Mendham Township is in the process of petitioning the Highlands Council for conformance with the RMP. A public comment period was held between March 26 and April 26. At this time, it is anticipated that the Council will take action on the Petition at an upcoming public meeting.
