meeting. Um we have two applications in front of us for actually I believe it's two generators. >> Uh Francine, do you want to go ahead and read the first one? Item three, zoning board of adjustment 2025-10,
Jason Delo, block 21, lots 3.02, 3 Eagle Hill Road, Homedale, New Jersey 07733. The said premises are located in the R4A zone. Applicant seeks the following relief to install a whole house
generator approximately 13 feet away from the existing dwelling near the existing pool equipment. The current requirement is within 6 ft of the dwelling. The proposed generator will be installed behind an existing vinyl fence
to screen the generator from sight and dampen the noise. >> Thank you, Francine. Uh Mr. Dulo, can you provide us with >> Oh, okay. Go ahead. >> You be sworn in. >> We have to swear here. Absolutely. >> You swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. So help your God with
regard to this application. >> Okay. Just spell your full name for the record. >> Sure. Uh Jason J A S O N DO D U L O W. >> Okay. Thank you for that. If you could just provide a summary of what your
application is. Um kind of go through want to do the first. Okay. Um Craig, do you want to first I guess before we introduce Mr. Dulo uh explain the background of why the variance is being requested and then Mr. Dulo, you can present your your side of the case,
explaining any hardships and what you're requesting and giving kind of description of property. So Craig, Mr. Mr. Herman, why don't you start? >> Sure. Thank you. Um so section 30-64 of the ordinance uh has
some requirements for what it's calling um basically uh appliances uh which includes generators, air conditioning units, heat pumps, and the like on the outside of a house. One of the requirements is that the uh edge of the
appliance nearest to the dwelling unit serving is within six feet of the dwelling unit. So based off of uh the plan provided by the um applicant, they're proposing to generate approximately 133 13 feet away from the
back of the house. So they're not complying with uh part A of 30-64. >> Okay. Anything else? >> Can I ask a question? >> Sure. Do you have any idea why they put it further away?
problems away from that because it seems like you don't want it too close and it's far enough from the neighbor. So that's not why
he puts it back. >> You're not talking on your mic. >> Oh, I'm sorry. >> The whole thing gonna have to say it again. Okay. Uh, I guess what I'm asking is uh I can see that uh he's far enough away
from the side of the the next neighbor and he's not too close to the house, which you don't want a generator to be too close to the house. So, why do we care if it's further back? Is it because we're afraid it might be unsightly to uh
uh in the backyard? >> So, I don't know the the exact reason why the ordinance was adopted back in I think it was 2014 based on the ordinance number. However, there there's a whole bunch of regulations related and my understanding is that the the building
code regulations this ordinance these requirements are kind of rooted in that somewhat. Um and I don't know the exact parallels. Uh it could be that you want it tucked in closer to the house if it's on a sideyard to keep it away from the neighbor. There's also setback requirements too in that section of the
ordinance that you know is coming into play here. So I I don't know the exact answer for that, but it probably, you know, related to the building code requirements. Um and I think that in this case, the reason why they're locating it where they're proposing probably relates to the ordinance
requirements and also other requirements in the building code. And I think um Dimmitri may have uh talked about before like um closess to windows based off of experience. Uh so it may be pushing the
generator in another location and I think uh Mr. Doulo could add some uh light to that. I agree with your comment and I I would like to really find out from somebody why it's required as a
variance for going 13 ft away. If it's our town requirements, then that's something that we could suggest to the township, you know, committee to change it. If it's code, building codes, and that's nothing we can do about that. But we should I think I would like to know
the answer for the future because lots of people put generators in. So, I've never heard us deny something or, you know, make a variance out of it for being a little further away. >> Yeah. Because basically what we're doing is it's not within six feet of the house and he's requesting 13 feet from the house, which again, I think a lot of us
are scratching our heads on why I care. >> No, I don't know why it would be further closer. I understand. And the applicant is a exfireman, so he knows too how many first a calls and fire calls it went to from CO2 that got into the house. So, that part I understand. If anything, he
did a better thing going further away than being closer. So, I'd like to find out. I don't know who's going to find that out for us. Maybe you can find out from somewhere exactly what the answer is. >> Well, I I did speak to um the port planner about it and she said it was rooted in in the building code. I don't
know if we could find out why the you know, back in 2014 the the township committee decided that they wanted to adopt that ordinance. Um, I'm thinking maybe if you have a wider sideyard, you want to keep it tucked towards the house to keep as far away from the neighbors
as you could. >> 53 feet. >> Not well, not in this particular case. Well, it's 53 feet, but you don't maybe they don't want the generator, you know, if if the side set back is, which is another requirement here, 10 feet from a property line, they don't want it
located 13 feet. So, it's closer to the neighbor rather than you. >> Yeah, but this is going towards the back, not the side. >> I understand that. I'm just talking in general why they may have the six foot requirement. >> Is it something that you could find out for sure and let us know? I mean, it should it's not going to affect the application tonight,
>> but I would like to know what what the reason is where it is that it says that. >> I can ask the zoning official if she if she knows why >> the zoning official. >> All right. So, you know, so I guess I do want to find out from Mr. Dulo um his explanation and kind of description of
what's going on. Is there any other board members have question before? whatever. >> Um, I know when I went to put in my generator, I have a corner plot and I was putting it on the side of the house and they were telling me I couldn't cuz
because it was being put in the front yard. My side was considered my front yard. So, I'm kind of thinking this regulation might be more related to aesthetics because if you keep it six feet to your house, it's not going to be
so obvious to everybody. You have a fence there. And I just have a question. Is that fence um in the front of the house so that if I went on the other side of the fence, would I be facing the street? >> So, if you This is a picture uh that I actually >> Well, you know, I'm sorry. Why don't you start from the beginning? We got a lot
of questions. No, that's fine. So, Mr. D. Yeah. Start from the beginning. explain the whole, you know, background and the story behind this and and and what happened with the uh application. >> Yeah, sure. So, um un unfortunately back in December of 2024, my mother-in-law passed away. And since then, um my
91year-old father-in-law has been living with us. So, uh a few months into his residency, uh we decided that we needed to expand uh the current footprint of the house. So, um I decided uh we decided that we were going to be putting
uh an addition on the house which um is kind of this gray area here. So, I I'm extending the house out at a max 16 ft. I've already gone through the zoning approvals for that. Um they've already been approved. All of the uh construction permits have already been
applied for and approved and I'm looking to break ground on this hopefully within the next couple of weeks. So as part of this uh exercise uh we decided that uh uh we would put this uh standby generator uh in as part of the the uh
larger addition project. So um the way that the the house is set up uh there's basically windows on every exterior wall. Um and after speaking with Mr. PZO who's the electrical inspector in town uh and uh Mr. Herman brought it up
before. Um there are certain requirements that these generators cannot be within I think it's five or 5 1/2 ft of any windows. So that would have basically put it somewhere in in my if to meet the the 5 1/2 or 5 foot
requirement plus uh within that 6 foot requirement for the generator for the appliance based on the ordinance. It really would have only put it somewhere out in in the middle of my yard. Okay. Um, I have the existing uh
fence that's back here. So, I thought to make it not visible to anyone. Um, obviously lower the the noise uh pollution, for a lack of better words, to my neighbors. I just thought that
this was the the best place to put it. Um, I have uh my pool equipment is in that in that same area. And I can I can show you uh again this is this is the picture uh that I took from the street. So you can kind of see where the the
pool equipment is is this area here. And um the extension of the house, again, pardon my rudimentary drawings here, but um the extension is going to come out again 16 ft. And you could sort of see how um with the addition of the the
house and the fence, the the generator is going to be completely blocked uh both from a noise level and a visibility level from from my neighbors. And all of the uh utilities, the gas, and all the
electrical uh will be run during the excavation. Um, so any uh disturbances to the ground, I've already gotten clearance from Freehold soil uh to do that as part of the addition. So all the ground is already going to be uh
excavated for the addition. So we're just going to have to excavate an extra 13 ft uh to run uh all of the utilities. And then obviously this is all going to be installed per per any of the building electrical fires uh uh subcode um uh
items uh that that may come along with the installation. Um Mr. Herman had asked in in his uh complete list memo about um the the specific generator. Um I'm looking at this one here. It's a it's a GenerRack 26KW
uh Guardian series. Um it's going to be installed on a just a a typical groundmounted um lowprofile pad uh that you see most of the generators uh sit on. Um and uh
again it's in that sound attenuated enclosure uh again behind the fence uh the privacy fence. Um he had also asked um in his in his letter about uh the existing septic. I'm not sure what that would have had to do
with this, but I have it here anyway. Um, so this is a this is where my existing septic is on the left side of the house, and the generator is actually going to be over in this backhand corner over here. So, uh, the generator is on the complete opposite side of where it
may interfere with uh any septic systems. Um, if if that was uh why he he had requested that. Um, I mean, I I've spoken to all my neighbors um in my immediate neighbors about both the addition and the the
generator. No one has has had any issues with any of it. Um, and uh again, I'm I just hope that uh the board can gr grant me this relief and and uh install it again behind uh this privacy fence. This
is sort of where you could see the proposed location and again that'll also be blocked by 16 additional feet of house. So again behind the privacy fence behind the house uh totally screened and uh yeah that's
>> okay. Well, thank you for your testimony. >> Absolutely. >> We're going to open up to the board now for individual questions. And Marty, I just want to make sure. Do you have all the the exhibits as the pictures as >> we don't have? >> They were attached. They have those are the same ones that you submitted. >> Yeah, the only uh I submitted everything
except for the ones that I took today. Uh these two, but I I can always send them uh if if you need them. Absolutely. >> Yeah, that's not whatever was shown today on the video screens. Just make sure >> has Yeah, you should have everything except for the these two snow photos.
>> We'll call those exhibit A1 photos. Okay. >> That we did not get. >> If you could just send me those tomorrow. >> Yep. >> Just for the public record. >> Sure. >> All right. So, I'm going to open up to the board now for individual questions. Uh, >> so I happen I happen to be looking at the denial here and the denial says
seeking to install a whole house generator outside of the 6 foot requirement per town ordinance 30.64 etc etc. So to me without speaking to somebody I think they made a mistake in the wording here or maybe Marty might
know it should be six feet or greater maybe not six feet exactly because the six feet would be the minimum in order to prevent that CO2 from backing into a house. So that's why that's there but I don't know why they would say >> I think it's two different things. I
think Craig said the ordinance was within six feet, but there's also a window requirement which is separate than the zoning. That's a building code thing. So that's a separate >> because that's what it says here on the town ordinance. That's a town >> town ordinance says the edge of the
appliance nearest to the zone unit is serving is within 6 ft of the dwelling. Yeah, but I think me personally, without talking to somebody who wrote this, I think it should be six feet or greater within setback requirements, not just
exactly 6 feet because it's better to be farther away from the house, >> Demetri. But >> I know >> that's your answer, >> but that's not the code. So the ordinance has the wording you don't like, >> right? But my explanation as to why this
is here today. >> He's here because he's outside of six feet. >> Yep. >> But I will say nothing to do with code. I'm not testifying but personal experience. Typically these are on the side of the house and somebody said you don't want to be into a sideyard setback or too close to a neighbor.
>> That's a different ordinance. >> That's typically why you have that six feet. It's >> Yeah. And and again, I'm I'm well past well, this is so from a if it was a side setback, I would still be well within the 25 ft >> and I believe it's 25 ft from the rear
as well. And I'm probably 110 >> feet from uh from the rear uh property line. So also Demetri, you could think about if there is a specific distance requirement from being away from a window depending on how your windows are on your house, you could be with it. You
could put the edge of the generator 5T from the house but still have the required separation from a window depending on how your windows are set up. Now if you have a lot of windows on the side of your house, you may be you may be able to meet the six foot requirement for the ordinance but then have an issue with the requirements of the building code. And that's where the
hardship would come in of why maybe we got to go to the back such as in this case. >> Yeah. >> I guess the spirit of the law or the regulation is is to prevent carbon dioxide from getting inside the house. >> Yeah. That's the main reason. >> So you want it at least six feet.
>> That's one that's the window requirement. That's not the ordinance requirement. >> Right. The other one is is probably to keep it from being out people putting stuff in the middle of their yard. Exactly. >> From my from my experience, what I was told was the aesthetics.
>> So, they don't want somebody to move the generator 15 feet and it's sticking in the middle of the land and you know, people can see it because then you're ruining the front of the house appearance, so to speak. So, that's what happened with me because
um I had a very hard time where I was going to put it. >> Yeah. And um I said if you look at people's houses and you run around that have them on the side, you can see them. So you're not stopping from seeing them, right? >> You know, and I don't want to tell you, but I'm >> Well, you are in my case. >> Yeah. But in my case, you don't even
know where my generator is cuz I've got a whole BM that I put up there cuz I don't want to see it myself, you know. But I think that's what part of the aesthetic of the law is aesthetics. Safety is probably also like you said, you know,
if you want safety, put it 20 feet from your house so you don't get any f fumes, but you don't want it sticking in the middle and it becomes an eyesaw. And it could be dangerous, too, sitting out there by itself. >> Lori, did you have any questions? >> No.
>> Okay, John. No, >> Demetri, you're uh good or >> I think I think I've said enough. >> Okay, Jean. >> Yeah, I've said enough, too. >> Okay, so at this point, we'll close the board commentary and open it up to the public. If there's anyone in the public
that there's a couple uh individuals out there, if anyone has anything to say, you just please come up to the microphone and >> questions or comments. This is only two. >> Okay. Questions or comments, we'll accept tonight. and uh just name state your name and your address and um
anyone in the audience? >> Nope. >> Okay. So, at this point, we'll close public comment and if there's no other uh Mr. Herman, if you want to say anything. >> Just a couple of items. Uh I had a couple of comments. Uh I had a comment about the the fencing. It's not new
fencing. It's existing fencing. Correct. >> This is existing fence. Yes. >> Um as far as height's concerned, it's anticipated that in front of the zoning official the heights compant >> and um >> that's important we know that >> thank you for the information septic
system I just want to make sure there were any conflicts with >> you know not only the the generator itself but any utilities for it so we know it's on a separate on the other side of the building it wasn't on the survey so >> okay >> that's all I have >> thank you Mr.
Okay. If there are no other comments, questions, I guess we can open up this motion to um to vote on this. >> I make a motion to vote approval for this >> second. >> I'd like Okay. All right. >> Sorry.
>> Uh Miss Campus. >> Yes. >> Miss Ghard, >> yes. >> Mr. Luchianim, >> yes. >> Uh Mr. Oran Pulos, >> yes. >> Uh Mr. Gian Paulo. >> Yes. >> Uh Mr. Arnon, >> yes. >> And Mr. Burkel.
>> Yes. >> Thank you. Motion passed. Congratulations. >> Thank you very much. >> Appreciate it. Thank you. >> And good luck with the construction. >> I appreciate it. Thank you. >> Okay. Francine, do you want to read the
next application coming before us? >> Who's that? You want to do it now? >> Well, no need. >> All right. >> Ireina, can you seat um >> you'll just you say we're going to see a
seat s for Vincent. >> S, can you please come up to be seated for Vincent? We're going to put you in as a voting voting member. >> Retroactive for the first. >> Okay. Um, Francine, whenever you're ready. >> Item four, zoning board of adjustment
2025-11 Nicholas Petrielo, block 58.02, lot 3234, Bayberry Drive. The applicant seeks relief to install a new natural gas home backup generator. The placement will be
8.4 ft setback from the side. 10 ft is typically required. Now what we didn't do uh do we are there any conflicts here on the board with anyone? Anyone see any conflicts? Okay. Uh Mr.
Petri, do you see any conflicts with anyone on the board? Okay. >> I I did not do that in the last application. Apologize for that. Um Mr. Herman, do you want to give your uh thorough analysis uh to the board here?
>> So um this is uh another application for a generator. This is a little bit different where um in this case because the hardship is related to the actual um size of the sideyard that it's
encroaching within a sideyard setback. So, uh, again, there's three requirements in section 34, 30-64 of the ordinance. B and C relate to the edge of the appliance further from the dwelling unit serving no more than 10 ft from the closest property line and the
entire appliance is located behind the setback line from the dwelling unit. So in this case um the uh let's see if I have the setback is 10 feet from the property line and
based off of the survey that's up the sideyard setback ranges from about 12.8T 12.7 feet. So the hardship is is if you move it to meet the 10 ft, then you're too close. Then you're you're not going to have
enough room for it. You know, if you pull it to six feet or within that six feet, you're you're within that 8ft sideyard setback. So the applicant's proposing to um have the edge of the one edge of the um generator 8.4t from the
uh property line. So I would just ask if the applicant knows the size of the generator to give us an idea of how far away it would be from the house so we can confirm it's within that six feet and um uh just an idea of is is there a
possibility of maybe moving it to the back to maybe eliminate these variances. >> Okay. Do we uh do we have any questions first before we move to public test to testimony from the applicant of the of Mr. Herman? All right. So, Mr. Petriello, if you
want to introduce yourself, uh, you have to be sworn in. >> You swear to tell the truth. The truth. Yes. >> Spell your name for the record, please. >> Nicholas Petriel. N I C H O L A S. Petriel. P E T R I E L L O.
>> Okay. So, you saw how the last application went. So, if you could just introduce yourself, the property, what you're trying to do, what you've encountered as far as hardships within your property, and just a general overview for us. >> Sure. So, um I'm in the, you know,
process of trying to install a whole home backup generator. Uh the size here is the 22 kilowatt and um uh just, you know, to protect the the house in case there's a power outage. Um the problem that I guess we're running into from a
variant standpoint is um I have a fence, a vinyl fence that goes from here all the way down the property line to the back and the proposed generator would be about right here. So it's close enough
to the house where it's you know >> Yeah. Could this Oh, >> is the mouse not working? >> Oh, my mouse is Yeah. I'm sorry. I guess my mouse isn't really doing >> You want to use it on your laptop? Is Is it on your laptop? >> Yeah, >> just use There we go. Okay. >> Yeah. Look at that. >> There you go. >> Something new. So, uh the generator
would end up being about right here. >> Um >> it's um >> Can you see the pen or >> No. >> Oh, >> there's a photo of it. Yeah, there's a >> He's going to zoom in here. Okay. Is that better? >> Oh, yeah. So, right now that's the AC
unit that we're looking at right there. Right. >> Right. Correct. So there's an AC unit. So it would end up being about right here. Okay. >> Um it's there's no windows on this side of the house. So it's not outside of that uh six feet or whatever the requirement is there. But the problem is
the end of the generator comes within 8.4 uh feet of the side vinyl house and then the neighbors on the other side of that. Uh the typical is 10 feet. So, we're a little bit within that uh the the
requirement. The one question about putting it in the back of the house. The issue that I run into is there's a window here, a chimney, and then another window. And I think the ordinance there is it needs to
be outside of six feet. So, the opposite of. So, the problem if we put that six feet out is it ends up kind of at no man land >> in the middle of the yard. So, I would, you know, I guess we'd have to do some kind of landscaping or something to
adjust the the the uh the backyard to have a big generator right outside in front of it. The other side is all pa patio. So, then again, you'd have a generator that would be out here somewhere in no man's land. And of course, this side of the house is even
more narrow than the other side. So, this seems to be the only place that I could put it with um without it being aesthetically um off. And um and so I guess that would be the the
relief that I'd be looking for is that extra, you know, foot and a half or whatever that is. It's a little tight, but I think the vinyl fencing cuts down on the noise and aesthetically. No one can really see it over there, >> Mr. Herman. So, we're talking about 1.6
ft for the variance relief. Is that what we're talking about here? >> Correct. And that's again from section uh B and C of 30-64, we would meet um you know, A because it's within a six feet. And again, it's it's one of these situations where on
that side of the house, especially from a safety standpoint, you're better because there's no windows. But if you put it in the back and try it to meet that six feet and the setback requirement, now you're now you're against another regulation because you're too close to a window >> which is more dangerous. Yeah, >> probably. Yes, it might be. I agree. I
agree with that. So, >> all right. So, uh Mr. Pedro, are you done with your testimony? >> I am. Thank you. >> All right. So, we're going to open up to the board for individual questions. Uh who anyone want to go first? >> Yeah. I'd like to ask a question. Uh you have a vinyl fence on that side. >> Correct.
>> Uh correct. >> How high is the vinyl fence. >> That's a great question. Uh, it was there before I moved in. Um, I would think it's like six feet or within whatever the code was at the time when they installed it. It was there
before me. >> No, I would actually minimize your pictures now on the far right there. I think we might get a better shot of it. >> No, but we're looking at the attachment that shows the side of his house. >> I mean, that's the side of that. >> That's the fence over here. >> Do you have this picture? >> Yes.
