section 430-35, column 10 and section 43035, column 13. This application was carried from the January 7th, 2025 application. 25 26 maybe. Is this 26 or
25? Nora? Uh >> 26. >> 26. Okay. >> 36. 25. 36. >> January. >> January. >> Oh, January 7th. Okay. Yeah. 20 cents. >> The testimony that you're about to give
should be the truth. The whole truth and nothing but the truth. >> Can you state your name, please? >> Marvin Gandhi. >> You can have a seat. >> And my name is Sachin body. >> And you're the owner of the property, correct? >> Yes.
I understand that there's a shed and a patio and a walkway. Um the patio and the walkway are already there. Yeah, they were there pre-existing prior to 2021 uh as per town engineers later to the board.
>> Could you please talk to the microphone sir? >> Yeah the town as per at the property this is a redeveloped property back in 2020 when they purchased. So prior to their purchase, the property had like uh two shades uh
big deck uh and a walkway, driveway, all of the impervious area. Uh somehow when the builder did the expansion of the house like they built like the same footprint just added a second story
expansion they didn't get the legalize the patio out there and uh all they did is like uh trying to put a shed to put the gardening equipment and the other tools as well as like a legalize the bacteria. So that's why we are here.
>> And you're an engineer correct? I'm an engineer >> and you're properly licensed as an engineer in the state of New Jersey. >> I'm an active PE New Jersey, New York as well as a CFM. It's a what it's a platform manager. >> Gotcha. So I think the board has a
letter from the town engineer dated February 26, 2026. >> If I recall correctly, I'm not sure you were here the when Mr. Periq was here the first time, but when he was here the first time, the board got a letter from
the township engineer raising some concerns about storm water runoff. >> Yes, we understand that and that's why I I we did the OPRA request in the town to receive the old surveys like existing condition existed before like we started
the work like or the house was expanded on the second story. So that that was the baseline survey we used uh to show that like uh when the house was redeveloped in fact the actual impervious area was reduced even with
the shared construction as proposed and all the patio and all existing stuff out there. >> Was the patio and the walkway there prior to 2021? >> Yes. Okay. >> It was there. >> Okay. And uh I can provide a survey
>> to the town. We have it in >> Well, you gave it to the township engineer, right? >> Yeah, we already did. >> Yep. And he reviewed it. >> Provided and he reviewed it, right? >> So then I guess the next question would be you want to also add a shed, right? >> Yeah.
>> So why don't you tell the board why the shed needs to be in that particular location? So the shed uh the it's a small lot like a 4,000 ft² lot uh and the width of the lot is such that if we try to follow the
requirement 6 ft it will come in the middle of the backyard little backyard they have like they have a backyard like about 20 ft by like 40 ft and shade would come in and the proposed location of the shed is identical to the location
where the shade was before they moved Okay. So, we are like requesting to allow them to put the shade in the same location where historically the shade was as well as the to the corner so they can have a
usable backyard. >> Is there any setback from the property boundary? >> We don't have >> set back. >> Is there any setback from the property boundaries? >> Uh there is like about 3 ft. Uh >> 3 ft. Yes.
>> Okay. That's none that we usually eat. >> Well, according to the chart from Jen, it looks like it's 3 ft from the rear and 1 ft from the sideyard. >> From sideyard it is 1T.
>> Yeah, it was like exactly at the same location where it used to be. We are putting right now. >> But you said 3 ft from both sides or one only back >> on the back. >> How big is this shoe? It's >> uh 6 by 8.
>> 6 by 8. >> Yes. >> According to Jen's chart, it's 8 by 10. >> 8 by 10. >> It's 8 by 10. Okay. >> It's 8 by 10. >> How big is the concrete pad? >> It's the size of the sh like 6 in
outside. >> Same size. >> Yes. >> Running. >> And the the the slab is there, right? slab is there >> and we'd had no issues with your neighbors having water run off from there. >> Did you talk to your neighbors?
>> Yeah, we already talked. >> They're notified also, right, Nora? >> Yes. >> Are there any other questions from our board? J, you satisfied with the 3 ft all the way around? >> It's not going to be It's going to be
one, but it's going to be uh 8 ft. They I think they probably squeeze in. >> So, the existing shed is the same size as the new shed. >> Yes. >> So, you're just replacing the shed. >> Replacing the shed. Like what happened is when they redeveloped the house like
when they add the addition or like second floor addition they removed like all the stuff out there and so they removed the shed and everything. So >> So when they did the second floor >> Yeah. >> during that project they took the shed away.
>> Yes. And they we didn't put it until like uh last year we started. >> And that was people that owned the house before? >> Yes. Yeah, they had it. The only reason is like last year due to storm there was a
huge tree on that corner fell down and uh that's why like we started cleaning up the yard in that area. >> Is is the new shed there already now? Did you put it in already? >> No, we didn't put the shed. It's just a concrete pad. >> Can they do like a 6 by knock down the
the pad a smaller pad? Give him the 3. >> I just spoke to Mr. Chadwick and he feels that with the pad being the size it is that they can go around and do their maintenance of the area. >> That's why why we generally use 3 ft as
the standard so they can maintain them. >> Gotcha. >> Any other questions from the board? >> No. >> Would you like to say anything else in regard to this application? Uh no just
uh we they we are doing it because of the doing like little aesthetic to the property as well as they can use their property for better use and uh trying to stay compliant with the >> Is there anyone in the audience that is
in favor of this application? I see none. Is there anyone in the audience that is opposed to this application? I see none. Would one of our members like to recommend recommendation for approval, please? >> Yeah, I think this is dimminimous in
nature. It was there before. It shouldn't create a problem. Nobody seems to be objecting. You spoke to your neighbor. The engineers good with the water situation. So, I'll be voting for it. Application 25 col 36 Sha and Sachin

last name, please? >> Uh, Randy Delara, D L A R A. >> Okay. Um, it's I believe you were here before, correct? >> Yes. So, why don't you refresh the board on what happened the last time and why you're coming back?
>> Oh, so I'm back I'm back here because uh the board had required um uh a memo from the town engineer in regards to the storm water management. So during during that period of time I went to speak to
uh to Paul Nish Nyoff and they provided uh a feedback. Um I have the memo here on my end. So um >> January 12th >> January 12th, 2026. Yes. We have >> Oh, you can. >> There is one one pointy with that memo.
>> What is this about March 2021? Is was there anything going on? >> No. >> The date of March 2021 is when the current storm water regulations of the township came into play. >> Oh, okay. Sorry.
>> Is that is that I I've not seen that on one of these before. Have I missed it or >> I've seen it before. >> Oh, yeah. I the last the last case that had it, but I I don't remember seeing it prior to the >> Yeah, that's when that's when the township passed their apparently passed their ordinance about uh non- major
cycle uh storm water. >> Gotcha. >> Are you in compliance with the engineers report? >> Yes, sir. >> So, I think that takes care of the impervious coverage issue. The only other thing is there's a setback issue for the driveway.
>> Oh. So, why don't you tell the board why it is that you want we need to expand the driveway into the setback area. Explain that to them. >> Okay. So, >> yeah, forgive me for uh not explaining it properly because I'm trying to find
the words. Um, what I did was took a photo above and it's under regards to the garden. >> Why don't you just explain why you widening the driveway?
>> Oh, okay. So, we are I'm whiting the driveway and just to make it aesthetically uh even with the update of the the the the front um
uh what do you call this? Um the uh the pathway and the the front which we replaced and it's actually a smaller footprint now. Um, but there's between that section of the the the this the patio and the driveway there is a
dirt that is this wide about a foot and we just needed to just make it even. Uh at the same time, you know, my my kids and my family, we have we have multiple vehicles and during the storm, the reason why we just wanted to expand it
by by 2 ft to the right side and then about a foot on the left side cuz we were we live on the downgrade. >> Okay. >> And and it's just um >> that way we there's no there's no mud or
being kicked out at the same time. um the cars will be able to provide a a proper parking uh situation. I spoke to my neighbors about it just to make sure that she is aware about it. She's you know there's no issue as far as again I also spoke to the engineer about the
storm water issue about >> that. Yeah. And she we looked at it. I mean she I took I have all the pictures with him and then we sat down and we actually Yeah. So, he was able to provide me his feedback from a, you know, from a professional perspective.
And, >> uh, >> this work's already been done, right? >> Pardon? >> This work's already been done. >> Just the just the pathway and the the the the patio. I'm trying to use the right words, the patio area. So, be it
was just an update from this was the the previous one which was collecting water would collect here during the rainstorm. So, we updated that. We This was removed and it's just uh uh this part right here
was just added with a little height in there. That way there's no um water pooling in front of the door. Um and then the path there was a small path here which is much aesthetically pleasing and unfortunately when when I
spoke to my contractor um that was the issue. I my first question to him was like, "Are you sure? Do we need a a permit from the town about this cuz we just had the home um recently um revised?" You know, I I knew
all about the the permits it needed. So, that was the first question that I had. So, I mean, I I thought he was professional after and he said, "Uh, you know, since you're only updating and existing, you don't you won't need a permit." And that's the mistake that I did. and you
know I I and you know we've now we're properly doing this and to make sure that you know we're we're in compliance with the town but yeah as you notice it's it's a the current one that we have is way smaller than this and I believe that's the one of the reasons that the
engineer had mentioned about the the so management. >> Yeah. So it's actually better is more there's more soil and more more grass from you know which the wife loves. So, >> does that show your front yard? That picture? >> This is the front. Yeah. And
>> so, the car that's in that picture is a car that's in your driveway, right? >> Yes, that's my car. >> So, this this part right here, it's just >> it's just going to be straight with the the edge of the street. We're not expanding >> the driver any further. It's just a
weird section. So, the >> it's kind of like this. It's almost like this. So, we're just going to make it straight. >> Um, if that makes sense. >> Okay. So, um, that's good. >> So, you're widening the driveway so you are able to use it for more cars,
correct? >> Yeah. Uh, well, not widening. I mean, I don't if you want to call it widening, it's just this part right here. >> Well, can can I approach it? >> So, so you so you're just making the driveway a little bit wider, right? >> A little bit wider. So, there's only 2
ft from here from the current um uh driveway and about Yeah. Yeah. two feet in straight. >> Okay, got it. >> And he's got the side landing and the stairs over there.
>> Do we have any questions from the board? >> No. No. >> Any questions? >> There any questions from the audience in regard to this application? Is there anyone in the audience >> that has any objection to this
application? >> Anyone in the audience >> have approval information? >> I don't see anyone. >> Would one of my board members like to frame a resolution, please?

from December the 10th, 2025. >> Good evening everyone. Once again, Joseph O'Neal of Gafall O'Neal here on behalf of the applicants. >> This is a continuing hearing. We have come back with some more testimony regarding what's been going on in some
of the garages in the uh during the application period. >> Prior to this, we did finally get the one tenant who was causing us problems evicted with the court's help from the premises and the premises of the larger building is now completely broom clean.
Nobody's in there. There's nothing going on in there. But there is a tenant in the smaller building. With your permission, I'd like to call that tenant to discuss what he's doing in that building. Okay. >> Can you raise your right hand, please? Do you swear or affirm that the
testimony that you're about to give should be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing? >> You can have a seat. Make sure you use the microphone. Okay. Introduce yourself again to the board. I'm standing.
How do you spell your last name? Mas O. You were previously before this board a few months ago getting approval for a truck at your home. Isn't that true? >> Yes. >> And it is that very same truck which is stored in this smaller building on the premises. >> Yes. >> Can you just remind the board what it is
you do with your truck? >> Oh, I it it's a commercial truck. I fix construction equipment. I really just park it there. I same thing I like when I parked in my driveway that Hughes approved.
I I end up end up over there before I was approved. I needed a spot to park in case the guys didn't approve me and they were nice enough to let me park in the garage and I kind of like there. So really this really is I park my truck in there at night doing it overnight and go
to work in the morning back at night. It's a standard tool truck. >> Yeah, it's just a tool truck >> like like the water department uses. >> Uh you keep some materials in there to reload the truck. >> Yes, it does. >> Mostly new parts. >> Yeah, with parts that we need that we're
going to go to the next job for next day or so. You know, sometimes it's a couple days in advance. We buy parts, have them there. >> You also have some machine oil and hydraulic oil in sealed containers. Is that >> Yes. Yeah. All the oil oil and hydraulic
oil is in DOT approved containers. >> Now, none of this is stored in any quantities that are going to trigger any regulatory problems. Isn't that true? >> No, >> you don't even have to label the building through the truck. >> No, it's not that much quantity in there.
>> So, you're utilizing this basically in We've had some cold weather. It's nice to get out of the driveway into >> Yeah, it's nice to have my truck inside so I didn't have to shovel it out this year. That was big bonus. We have commercial for trucks. We got to make sure all the snow's off them as we
do get stuff at DOT. So, it's nice for that. Okay. >> And I think it's more secure in the garages even in than my driveway. That's my main concern. >> Very high value uh material on that truck. >> Yes, the Yeah, the truck and tools are
worth quite a bit of money. Sir, do you have any other trucks or equipment that is outside of the storage unit that you have of the smaller storage unit that you're using? >> No, I just have a trailer. Yeah, a little box trailer.
>> That's not for my business. >> You're just here to testify that you what you do in the smaller of the two spaces. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Yes. So the board will remember when we were testifying at the last hearing, we were discussing some of the uh workers
who would be utilizing the spaces, what they would and would not be doing. >> Yes. >> There was really no anticipation. We had a problem with the tenant who was there before who came in and ended up running a body shop basically out of there. So we had to evict him. He had to
clean out the material that was in there. He had installed partially incorrectly a paint booth. It was it was a uh real uh Keystone Cops operation. We were able to get it out of there. He
cleaned everything up. And uh what it's anticipated for is this gentleman workspaces like that for utilization by people who have trucks or need space to do something like that. We're not
talking about a full-blown warehouse. It's not an Amazon warehouse. It's not uh no there's really no power being set up there in any significant way. There's no bathrooms. This is not a real workspace.
>> But I think we were questioning the fact that since you didn't know who was going to be in the second and bigger warehouse, >> right? >> We had a lot of concern of what it could become. >> Sure. But we have some things regulating
the uses there. Um, like I said, the design of the building itself, uh, I don't even want to think about what those guys were doing in there. Uh, but there's no bathrooms. I know they tried to run illegal power up for their body shop, so we took all that down. Uh,
it's in a regulated wet uh, wellhead protection area, so we're not going to get those uses. It's in a one and a two, I believe, is wellhead protection area. But so we can't put body shops there. Not uh not conducive for any of these
uses. It's just for people who need maybe staging for their operations. And a lot of people work with trucks like this. This is not an unusual use. >> Mr. O'Neil, what kind of guard rails could the board put on this?
>> That should be similar to the witness's operation. Well, I could certainly suggest things like uh not approving it for additional power, just the basic power that's going in there now. Not not allowing any bathrooms to be set up or any washrooms
like that. Um >> I'm trying to get to the uses, >> right? >> What What guy wants the is the warehouse big enough to put an oil truck in there? >> Put what kind of truck? >> A regular oil truck comes to your house.
>> An oil truck? Yeah, >> I suppose. I don't know why you would. >> Why would Dave run a body shop without anybody knowing it? >> That kind of >> Well, we know that was what was going on. >> That kind of use in the well, >> that was intention. >> That kind of a use in the well protection zone, I don't think is going
to get approved. >> Absolutely not. >> So, we could obviously eliminate any kind of uses that involve transport of fuel. >> That's right. Any uses involving transported fuel. Uh, body shops are
already illegal under local ordinances. I think there's only one validly approved body shop in town. Um, no auto repair allowed. I think uh that could certainly be a condition that would be imposed. It would be a reasonable condition. But I
think I think if I got if I remember correctly, I think my concern was the frequency of use >> that you could it be set up as a staging area like I think someone just said. >> Yeah. >> Okay. For delivery where that's a hub?
>> Oh, no. >> Leave stuff there. But this witness testified, but he's not testifying for the new >> Right. Well, you could say no third no third party deliveries being made out of there for for warehouse space. Everything that's on everything that's in that space is for his truck. And
that's the answer. >> I'm not worried about him. >> I know. So, we're trying to duplicate that. >> We don't want it to be >> I'm going to send a pallet of widgets. >> Yeah. >> That's going to get broken down into 50. >> You're going to deliver them through the town, >> right? >> So, that would be a third party delivery
service. I'd say we're not going to allow that. >> Okay. So, we can That's a big one. >> This sense. Yeah. do a logistics type of >> Okay. >> Yeah. I I would think it's a good spot for like a plumber with a couple vehicles. They can store some of the
pipe in there, you know, hot water heaters for emergency jobs like that. >> Well, I'm sure you could come up with I'm sure you could come up with a lot of good uses. We're not worried about those. We're about we're worried about the overabundance of uses or the over um
creation of traffic and and disturbance to in a residential area and putting a business there. >> Well, I guess I would be concerned about if the board was trying to impose restrictions Yeah. >> upon uh with the delivery of materials by pallet to be broken down and utilized
separately. >> Well, the problem is that's the example we just gave. If you've got two plumbers operating out of there and they deliver their pipes on a pallet, they put them on their trucks, they drive away for their jobs, >> that would be the problem. That's why I
like the no third party deliveries. It's you only have materials there for the people who are working there, >> utilizing them on their vehicles, not to be sold. >> I think it's important that all materials are indoors. >> Yes. Everything, all activities must be
conducted indoors. All activities. And I want to go back to you said that trailer outside is your personal trailer. >> Yeah, it has nothing to do with the business. >> I'm sorry. >> Has the trailer has nothing to do with the business. >> I just parked it there cuz it was at my house, too. So, I figured, you know, >> it's a vacation trailer.
>> No, no, it's a box trailer. >> It's a box trailer. >> It's just a regular box trailer, >> you know, like one of like like a landscape. >> I I think extra vehicles >> nothing should be outside, >> right? Question. I agree with that. We'll accept that.
>> He's kind of >> Well, I mean, it's going to be stored. >> His landlord's allowing him to do it, >> but he can move that inside probably. I >> I So, so we're talking about uses. Is can it possible for us just to put in the the the variance that it's only able
to be used for parking vehicles inside? That would take businesses out of it. It would just be a garage. No, you can still >> Well, I'm just I'm just saying if we're going to try to figure out to keep other things that shouldn't be in there out of it if we just put in that only allowed
for parking of vehicle. >> I'm concerned about the size of trucks that possibly will be coming in and out of that location, whatever they're going to be doing. What's the size? Can we put a side a size uh prohibitive? Here I
could call back my we could talk about the limitation on sight that comes up trucks. >> What are you concerned about? >> Yeah. Limited to trucks with no more than two axles, >> right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Is that what you're just saying?
>> Well, I think I think it'd be easier to go with the What's the What's the gross weight of the truck that you have? >> Sure. >> 26 >> 26,000 lbs. So, it's a 13 ton truck. So that's a that's a pretty substantial vehicle. Um, now with respect to
>> uh what you do, are you going to have a situation where you're going to go and uh a plan for a a coolant change in a truck and wind up with >> I mean I'm assuming these large trucks take a considerable amount of coolant which is a hazardous material >> and under the under the wellhead
protection uh that's not allowed unless you have some kind of protection. Yeah. None of that stuff comes back. Like if I go to a site to work on somebody's machine, we got to drain the antifreeze or something that goes into a container
and I like all my stuff all my waste oil goes to place that burns waste oil and he I got to account for all my fluids through the state. >> Right. But if you're >> I didn't really bring nothing back because I'm not I won't I'm not allowed to have an open container in my truck if
D stops me. >> They got to be sealed. >> Okay. >> The DOT they're very strict on. >> But that that that container may spend if you do it on a Friday afternoon that container may spend the weekend in the garage. >> No, I got a place I can drop them off.
>> So there'll be no no fluid stored overnight. >> Not not milk. >> We obviously have the problem here. One guy is doing it exactly right >> and the other person they invicted did it all wrong. >> Oh yeah. >> And so >> yeah he's standing there saying I'm not
painting anything and he's covered >> with spray paint. >> So you don't store any waste fluids at that site. Correct. And you don't store any fluids you use in your business at that site. >> He does have oil containers. >> Oil and containers. Five gallon pales.
>> But there I think that's going to be the issue. I know that there are secondary, it looks like a pallet, but it's basically a a flat tank and you you put the stuff on this pallet and it's essentially a secondary containment device. I don't think they're that
expensive. So, if you go and you go and get your three or four or five gallon pales, you put them on that pallet, you come back on Monday and find half a pale's leaked out and you're up, where'd it go? It's all in that secondary container. So I think if we require something like that, they're not that
expensive as from what I know. Um just to protect in case in case something leaks um that is protecting there. Are there any floor drains in these buildings? >> Not okay. Whoever built the village back then did it right. I mean if you look at them,
they're their cement block is 4 ft high. All you know on three sides besides the door. So there's nothing coming out of those buildings. Fanning's coming out. coming out the front and water don't move out of there cuz I know when my truck comes in when it's raining, it sits on the floor and it it don't roll.
It don't move. So, they're pretty well leveled out to where you would have to have a pretty big spill, I would think, for such building. >> We can do a quantity limitation on the amount of fluid stored in that way. I think that would be appropriate. It's
really we're not talking about a great amount of fluid. And again with these with these the pallet style secondary, you know, it just a matter of that whatever is in there, you could put a gallon limit on it and anything that is stored has to have some kind of secondary containment.
>> Yeah. >> But what about the getting back to the size of truck? You brought up the case of a plumber. Plus getting some big ductal iron pipe or something. >> Well, that's that's not going to be in a tool truck. No, but is it going to be it's it's full of pl a plumber
or whatever copper pipe. Those could come into big trucks or even the even the PVC pipe. >> Well, he's he's not accepting we're not proposing accepting large deliveries of material into this site. So, pipe that
would come in on a flatbed truck. >> Yes, correct. >> I happen to represent a pipe supply place in Dville. >> Not surprising. a big long truck. >> Yes. >> Not happening here. There's no room for it. >> Why not? >> Cuz there's no room for it. >> Okay. >> To be perfectly blunt about it, you'd
have to bring the truck in awkwardly. You couldn't get the material offloaded. >> Okay. >> And you'd have a hard time getting the truck off the property. >> So, why are we discussing? We just said, >> we're just saying guard rail. We won't have any >> uh large uh >> correct,
>> right? Two axle trucks >> and nothing bigger than the >> That makes sense. Yeah. two axle trucks or a a weight truck. >> Weight limit >> one axle in the back. >> It's two >> two axle truck. So, >> but is it easier to define it as a two
axle truck? >> Probably or or a weight can only hold that. >> Can we do it both ways? >> Two axle trucks are weird tons. Yeah, >> I mean, you know, just just going back, most of because we now have experience,
most of the larger plow trucks that the town uses, those are, you know, in that range of weight. You know, you're talking about it's not just a it's not a it's not a pickup truck with a with a tool body on it. It's it's a full size uh truck, two axle, I think,
I mean, I think that would probably that would definitely limit you. um not as specifically as the as the gross weight, but a lot easier to see from a distance. So that might be easier a little easier to enforce, >> but you can still wind up with I mean
U-Haul trucks are two axle and you can get a 20ft box on those things. So you can still get a pretty good size truck there. I mean your big U-Haul your big um UPS trucks are, you know, they're two axle, >> right? >> You know, you're looking at and that's a delivery. That's what you're going to get >> for something like this,
>> right? Nothing larger than that, right? So we we got fuel has to go into a contain containment >> to a secondary containment device. >> Yeah. >> Is there a >> the truck size is limited to two axles. Is there any reason Tom we shouldn't put
13,000 pounds on it? >> Well, he says it's 13 tons which is 26. >> I'm sorry. >> Um >> well if you >> or is that too big? If you do the weight and the axle, >> if you do the number of axles and the
weight, eventually you're going to get something that meets one and not the other. >> Okay. >> So, I think for for just to make it easy to make just pick one, >> two axles. >> What about hours of operation? >> Uh, yes, definitely. That's something that Mr. Chadwick has in his letter.
>> John opinion. If you're talking about basically tradesmen, >> yeah, they're out by >> clients. >> Seven. >> I would No, you're going to be 6 a.m. 6 in the morning to >> 6 at night. >> 6 at night. >> Okay.
>> And that would be 5 and a half days. >> Saturday is a half a day. >> Half a day. >> Is that reasonable? >> 6:00 in the morning to 6 at night here. >> Yep. >> Yes, that's fine. >> And half day Saturday, >> that's fine. Okay. >> Any outdoor lighting? Is there any outdoor lighting? There's no outdoor
lighting. >> There's no proposed changes to this property at all. >> No exterior changes at all. Nothing. Not even a plate of grass. Okay. >> And the utilities then will remain as is. >> The utilities have been scaled back to
the original utilities. There was some >> shenanigans. >> Shenanigans. Thank you very much, Mr. Chos. >> Very elegant. >> That have been removed. >> And could we put that in there, too? >> No shenanigans. >> No uh adjustment to the uh >> No shenanigans. Okay. Thank you. >> We're going to have shirts printed up.
>> Mr. Chadwick, the signage will only be the sign of the address outside of the property. Is that correct? >> That's correct. That's correct. >> There will be no access to the public from the public to these spaces. These are all >> no retail.
>> No retail. >> Okay. >> I think that satisfies my concerns. >> I think I think the only person want to >> Yes, please. But I mean obviously we're still >> I understand >> got testimony. So this is what I got so far.
>> No bathrooms, >> right? >> No increase in utilities including power, >> right? >> No transport or storage of fuel or other hazardous substances except um fluids on a secondary containment
device. No outdoor storage. Right. Hours of operation 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. 5 and 1/2 days. No outdoor lighting, no signage, no access to the public, and
no trucks um on the site that are in excess of two axles. >> Have I got everything? >> I would have signage of no signage other than uh >> property identification >> existing. Yes,
>> existing. >> And we might want to bend it for the spill containment that it be uh you know D approved or something to that effect. And just for the board's interest, I'm looking at one right now. It it's it has a capacity of 49 gallons. Um and it's
280 bucks. >> There is another sorry there is another item from Mr. Chadwick that the uh the resident will be you the residence will be utilized strictly as a uh as as a
home. It's not going to be used for anything other than a resident. >> I believe that's correct. >> Yes, that is correct. >> So, it's only used as a single family home. >> That's liner. What What is your >> and a deed restriction limiting
occupancy to a household unit? That's a suggestion from Mr. Chadwick. >> You good with that? >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yes. Right there. >> Do you want anyone to besides this
witness to testify? >> Uh, I just want to make sure we have no questions for this witness. >> Okay. >> Are there any questions from the board? >> No. No. >> Of this gentleman? >> I see none. I think >> questions from the audience.
>> Any questions from the audience on this information that we've just received from this gentleman? >> I see. >> Anybody else? >> I have Mr. Pisces, my planner, but uh I think he will agree with me when I say
that the board will be well within its authority to grant these variances that are requested because of the nature, the very unique nature and the history of this site and there really are no negatives, but
there are positives that this needs to happen for these types of people to get their jobs done. >> So, thank you. Do >> we have any other questions from the board? >> I just I just have a couple regarding Mr. LaMo's um June 30th report because I just want
to know if these um variances he called out are still necessary. >> So I don't know. >> Um >> well the first one the fences in a front yard that's an existing condition >> and also that fence I thought I had a
picture of that fence. Yeah, that comes later. Um, no more than one principal use where there's three uses. >> Okay, we still need that one. >> No accessory building greater than 15 ft. Still need that. Uh, no driveway that is accessory to a business or
industrial use shall be established in any residential zone. So basically, you have a a business driveway going through a residential property. >> Okay. So that's still necessary that right >> the existing automotive repair business
and mo mobile vehicle repair businesses are not permitted >> are the automobile automotive repair business is leaving right it's gone right >> right so it's just it's just the mo well this is well the mobile vehicle the
mobile vehicle repair business would be the truck that we're talking about in the small garage >> it's it's equipment and that's we would like that to remain. >> Yeah. And that's going to be basically storing that. He's obviously if if it's a mobile business, he's not >> doing business on site. >> Yeah.
>> Correct. And I've actually been asked, not to interrupt you, Tom, but I've been asked to ask the board if it would be all right to leave a permitted use on the site to be the storage of a non-motorized
trailer like box trailer he has in place there on the site. As long as it's on the pavement, not on the grass. >> Inside or outside? >> That would be outside. >> Is that the truck that he has presently? >> That's that trailer. >> That's the trailer he has at the present time.
>> He had a Winnebago. That's been gone. I know some people saw that Winnebago on the site that that was gone. We're talking about just the trailer. >> So, the trailer can't go inside. There's nowhere to put it inside. >> It's too small. It's probably too for the property for the >> we don't, you know, we got to remember
it's still a residential area and I don't think we want to make an eyesore of having it there all the time. >> I think that's >> I think we want to be good neighbors, too. >> Absolutely. >> Very good. >> I thought you agreed to take it off. >> I did, but he asked me to come back. >> You asked.
>> Okay, you asked. >> Um, off streetet parking are to be separated from walkways uh with curbing where no curbing exists. Still need that. >> Interior two-way driveways without parking shall be 22 ft wide where the
driveway widths are not labeled but scaled to be approximately 15 ft. >> So you still need that. >> Uh off streetet parking spaces are required for commercial uses where there's no c. Now again that goes to whatever winds up in the in the big
building if it needs parking because obviously the little building the parking is going to be inside. Well, if >> everything's going to be inside, there's not we're not proposing any parking outside. >> Well, if you have a tenant that is going to occupy the big building and they need parking and there's not enough parking,
you'll have to come back here for a variance. Right. >> That's right. We don't anticipate having a tenant like that since we control who's going to be the tenant. >> Right. >> Um then the wellhead protection thing, I think, uh we're okay with that with the
uh with the secondary containment. I mean, I think it's it's borderline. Uh, but I think we can I think it's safe enough that if they have the secondary containment and you know, that can be checked easily if the zoning officer so chooses. Um, so that I don't think that's an issue.
>> Yeah. Okay. So, that covers all the variances. >> That's all the variances. Uh, we talked about hours >> except for the use, right? >> Um, >> yep. You have the hours. >> What about trash? >> About trash being generated on site. Okay,
>> it's all getting hauled off. >> We talked about floor drains. Uh the last thing I that really comes to into play here is on the last page of my report, uh the fence along the front of the property is chain link and it's got those plastic slats in it and it it well
back when I did my report in in June, >> it was in it was in pretty rough shape. >> Yeah, we we will replace those. Yeah, >> we'll bring that up to up to >> Okay, so fence and gate to be replaced. >> The gate looks like it's the gate.
>> You put those plastic slats if you weave them in. Those are just the the woven in plastic pieces that go >> the front is. Yes, the front. >> Yeah, they they've reached I think the end of >> the purpose of that fence or is it just there? >> Well, it's just there.
>> I think everyone would prefer the site remain controlled when it's unattended during the day. um especially given if there's some storage of these materials. I know the existing tenant would appreciate that very much. His insurance company even more so.
>> Um >> so we would ask the fence for me. >> Yes, I'd like that. So you repair the fence. >> Yes, absolutely. >> Yes. >> That's all I had. >> So then just the use variance remains. >> Yes. >> Mr.
>> No, Mr. O'Neal. >> I have no further witnesses. >> Is there any other questions from the board? >> No. Is there any questions from the audience on the testimony? Please come up.
>> May we have your name and your address, please? >> Yes. Jackie Douglas, nine how courtney, New Jersey. >> Nine. >> How do you spell your last name? >> Nine Howell. H W E L L. And it's P as in Peter. U G L I S is in Sam.
>> Just having two questions. Uh, one you I like the the things you're talking about. I think the wetlands are important. The property is important. It's in a residential zone. So, I think the rules are necessary. Who will make sure they're followed? We have good
tenants of this property right now. The people that own it are they because they live next door to it. So, they have a good vested interest in making sure they're being followed. But if this property were to change hands, then who makes sure they're followed? And this doesn't turn into a business or something.
>> You have series of inspectors or people are charged to make sure people adhere to what the rules are whether they got a variance in the past with conditions or whether they didn't have to get a variance. It's just a property
maintenance issue. And that's an ongoing s uh uh system in the township. >> Okay. >> But you you're a neighbor, right? See something say something. >> I'm no question but I I I don't know. I
you may not believe this but I don't do a lot of zoning. >> Yeah. >> So just just wonder how it >> a zoning officer might or might not get around there. >> Okay. >> But if you see box you see big trucks coming in with big stuff >> or they're coming in and out and loading
and unloading call. Call the zoning officer. >> All right. And then if this property is sold, the zoning that you're make tonight, does it follow the property? >> Yes. >> Yes. So then this would be kind of a hybrid for the neighborhood. >> Every case is on its own merit.
>> Okay. >> All right. Well, thank you. >> Good questions. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Any other questions from the audience? >> Approval for this application. Anyone opposing this application?
I see one of the members please make a recommendation to approve this. >> Yeah. So I think you did good work. You compromised and I think we got to a point that uh is reasonable and even you
know neighbors of yours seem to not object. So I will be voting for it and recommend doing so. Application 25 35 Miniac Ventures LLC 755 South Bever Road Block 764 lot 28
