this evening we have a uh application PB 2410. Uh, Scott. All right. Somebody help me with the pronouncing the last name here. Skinski. Skozinski. All right. You want to come forward, please? We're gonna have you raise your right
hand. Okay. Good evening, Scott. Good. All right. Explain the board to the board what you're trying to uh do. Um just like um we're going to divide off the
woods which is uh roughly 6 something acres. My neighbor I live on the next street over my neighbor who over here my next door neighbor he wants the woods for me acres. While we're doing club division, we figured we also make two
additional multi grow there. Actually, I have somebody. [Music] All right, Chris, you want to go to the engineers report, please? Sure. So this is minor
subdivision and we are a district. Each lot meets the minimum requirements. There's one variance required in this. That's for a front yard setback on the farm property. There's a house there, but as an existing non-form condition, 75 ft required for front yard setback.
They're at 72.2. I believe that's not going to be impacted by the sub. Um they do actually meet the a buffer requirements. a 100 foot uh bag buffer provided at the rear yard and 50 foot on the side guard from one lot to the farm. So they are we don't have to argue about
that whether that applies or they're going to do it. It's actually on the plans. I guess some people pay attention to what happens at these meetings. Even if they're not here um other than that there's no no design waiverss required. Uh our review letter is simply discuss what's the purpose of
the subdivision. provided that testimony and you're not changing anything on the farm right now. The farmhouse stay as is the woods in the back and over here and sell to your neighbors. Okay.
And just so you're clear, you're showing the egg buffers on the plant, but the code does require plac. Okay. And I don't know if you read our review letter. you have any issue with providing um meets and bounds and the
sublies that drive the 3/4 values around the track. Uh and that's really it. That's our letter. Copy. Thank you. Um Jackie, all notifications. I I realized last month we had an issue with the all notifications are proper and
we're good to go. You're good to go. Okay. At this time, I'll entertain a motion to Well, first off, is there any questions for the board before I open the public? I I have a quick question. It's somewhat unrelated to this, but related, and uh Mr. Scott will probably know exactly what I'm talking about.
That basin on Peach Tree that they're currently working on, they're putting that pipe, they're extending that. Yeah. Does that is there an easement through the lots 13 and 14 to access the basement for that overflow pipe or is the easement on this property? I don't
know. No, go near this property. Oh, okay. Everything goes through the the lots on Peach Tree, right? Cuz aren't they running it from that basement uh basin across uh Sheridan through that easement uh on the property across the far upper end of the property? Yeah.
Yeah, I have the drawing. Yeah. Yeah, sure. This is this is the basin right here. Actually, the neighbor next right over here. Oh, okay. The pipes actually going up this way across. Yeah, that's my question. going there's an ement of your property
13 the ements already been created when they created these lots over here. Oh, okay. That was all done. It's all done. Why is that not shown on this plan? The ement honestly I don't know. Oh, okay. There is a grass buffer here, right? The
farm starts out here. Gotcha. The only through that grass. So, that pipe will go right through here. Correct. I was just questioning it because I didn't see the easement shown on the plan. The township currently owns that lot. Correct. That's the basin lot. Correct. They used to own the township.
Gotcha. Okay. Thank you. Anybody else in question for entertain is there a motion to open the public? I make a motion. Motion. Move. Second. All in favor? I. I. I. Okay. At this time, does anybody from the public have any
comments? Thank you. Step up, please. Scott, let him uh just step back, Scott, please. Thank you. My name is Lewisburg Parker. I live on No, I don't. You guys do. Uh I live
directly behind the block. Can I come and see what number it is? That's all right. Well, it's either 11, 12, 13, or 14. It's probably nine. It's 9 or 10. Okay. Um and I heard some information
that you were selling to Mike. Mike is here. Um first question is um Mike, do you have any uh Melissa, please address the uh question to the board? Oh, sure. Okay. My question No, it's okay. Yeah. Yeah. My question is then uh can we find out what the purpose of the sale is for? And
although this hearing it says that it's for uh woods in the in the nearest uh can here can get information on what the proposed use would be I don't know that we yeah I don't know that we
buy as far as you are you aware of I think I can address that right now just a subdivision to create new buy right and then this property is also in the RA district so the new buyer can do build a house on there they can
subdivide built two houses I don't want those white ones I look either houses or the apartment is really all permitted in the industry so anything in violation of those that if they want to further subdivide they come back to this board if if he just wants to build a single family home to do so we don't make
fun anything else to come to this board of zoning okay you would getting this thing. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I just have to be careful how we answer it. We can't tell what somebody could. As long as they're within the ordinances, they can do what they want on their property. It's not for us to ask what are you
going to do about this and that or uh those type of questions. And that's why I was dancing around your answer. Sure. If in the future there'll be Yeah, it'll be a new application at that point. All right.
Okay. Anyone else? Second. Move. Second. All in favor? I I Okay. Um, any comments? So, I'll make a motion and we approve TB 2410. Okay. I'll second it. Move
seconded. Uh, Chris, for roll vote, please. Mr. Brandt? Yes. Mr. Clark? Yes. Mr. Kelly? Yes. Mr. Mady? Yes. Mr. Wade. Yes. Mayor Bruno. Yes. Mr. Travalone. Yes. Chairman T. Yes. Motion carries.
Congratulations. Good luck and good [Music] hunting. Okay. The uh let's move on to uh the in the communication package. Chris, you want to explain what's going on with uh ordinance 2-025 02025
uh releasing the uh or vacating a paper street? Sure. I'll go over the line. I did not prepare the orders. I as far as I recall I had these previously. These are two paper streets. One on Elm and one on New Jersey
A. Sorry. I think it's just Elm. Just El clear field. They're paper streets uh that the town is proposing to vacate. Um I've looked on the tact. They don't seem to serve any real public purpose in connecting to anything greater. Uh and therefore they're not necessarily needed in order
to fill a certain larger circulation plan the township part of vacating any street is almost similar to a zoning ordinance that's come before this board for your uh recommendation and comment back before they can officially vacate the streets. Like I said, you know, we've taken a look at it. We have we
have no No issues. No issues with the vacation of these streets. Uh that's not not needed to provide access otherwise to any any properties or to connect to the larger circulation we create. Okay. Um with that said, uh it's a cursory review. Township committee wants
to vacate the street. Uh engineer has indicated that there is uh no useful reason to keep it. Is there any questions or any comments? If not, I'll entertain a motion to uh uh send back
with no comments on the uh O vacation of the street 0225. O225 comments and the recommendation uh to to vacate the street. I'm sorry. Yes. To vacate the street. We good?
All right. Motion. Yeah. I'll make that motion. Move this. Uh I hear a second. Yeah. Move and second. Uh, all in favor? I I got it. Good point. All right, Chris, back to you. Uh,
