Entered into evidence:

 

PB-1    Review letter from Cheryl Bergailo, Schoor DePalma, dated July 2, 2003

Sworn by Reporter Arnone:                              Donald Weir

                                                                        Patricia Weir

                                                                        James Higgins, Planner

                                                                        Glenn Gerken, Engineer

                                                                        Cheryl Bergailo, Planner

 

James Higgins, Planner, gave his credentials which were accepted by the Board.

 

Mr. Higgins said he looked at the proposed subdivision.  Mr. Higgins explained the existing lot is in both the R-10 zone and R-7.5 zone.  The existing lot has frontage on Walnut Street and goes through to Juliette Drive.  The Walnut Street lot will be slightly over 10,000 s.f. which would fully conform.  The Juliette Drive lot would be 6,250 s.f. which is less than what is required.  Variances are needed for lot width and lot frontage.  The Walnut Street lot, new lot 68.01, would have an area of 14,727 s.f.  The variance for frontage is an existing condition.  The frontage is 46.48’ where 75’ is required.  Ms. Bergailo said there are no variances needed for proposed lot 68.01. 

 

Mr. Higgins said the Master Plan shows an R-10 zone as high density residential.  Lot 68.02 is in a high density residential zone.  It is consistent with the Master Plan. 

 

Chairman Braun said the neighbors got involved at the last meeting regarding the size of the house.  Mr. Higgins said the house would be set back 35’ from Juliette Drive.  The side yard setback to the south would be 7.5’ and to the north 10’.  That is an improvement.  The house will be 2200 s.f.  The height will be 28’.  Mr. Higgins said he did a survey of the area regarding setbacks.

 

Entered into evidence:

 

A-4      Rendering of existing lot frontage

A-5      Rendering of existing lot area

 

Mr. Higgins said he surveyed a 14 block area.  35.6% of the houses have frontage which are not conforming.  28% are equal to or less than what the applicant is proposing.  64 lots are not conforming, 51 have equal or less than 50’ lot frontage.  Over 33% are not conforming.  27% have area that is smaller than what is required.  Non-conforming lots are both clustered and isolated.  It is the character of the area.  A number of the lots on Juliette are 10,000 s.f. 

 

Mr. Higgins explained a through lot is a lot which has frontage on both streets.  It runs through from one street to the other which is parallel to one another. 

 

Mr. Higgins stated the application is consistent with the Master Plan.  The zoning in this area is not consistent with the Master Plan.  Lot 68.02 has no density now.  Lot 68.02 is underutilized.  The area has water and sewer.  It has street access.  To leave it vacant would be an inappropriate use of the land.  The applicant is proposing a nice, attractive residence on the site.  There is no significant negative impact.  The benefits of granting this out way the non-approval.

Attorney Rubino said the Board takes into consideration the change in zone. 

 

Chairman Braun said this application will be carried to December 1, 2003.  Attorney Weir waived the time limits.

 

Entered into evidence:

 

A-6      New rendering of proposed home

 

Committeeman Brosnan asked the applicant to review the homes on Juliette with 50’ or less frontage.  He asked the applicant to have that information for the next meeting. 

 

Chairman Braun said no further noticing is required. 

 

Ms. Wilson returned to the meeting.

 

THE JERALD DEVELOPMENT GROUP – PB#24-2003 – 2510 Ramshorn Drive, Block 893, Lot 5, R-60 zone.  Application complete – June 23, 2003.  Carried from October 6, 2003.  Applicant requests permission to subdivide and create four single family lots.

 

Jennifer Krimko, Esq. appeared for the applicant.

 

Entered into evidence:

 

A-13    Letter from Gregory Hnat, Jerald Development, dated September 29, 2003 stating they are applying to NJDEP for a treatment works approval for sewer service

A-14    Preliminary & Final Major Subdivision drawings prepared by John Vincenti last revised July 22, 2002

 

PB-7    Review letter from Cheryl Bergailo, Schoor DePalma, dated October 27, 2003

PB-8    Review letter from Glenn Gerken, Schoor DePalma, dated November 3, 2003

 

Attorney Krimko said they enhanced the landscaping and buffering.  They are the only changes to the plans. 

 

Mr. Vincenti, previously sworn, said at the northerly property line there are natural evergreen and it is heavily buffered. 

 

Attorney Krimko asked if the applicant can comply with all of the review letters.  Mr. Vincenti said yes. 

 

Chairman Braun asked for the applicant to discuss the conservation easement.  Attorney Krimko said the applicant will comply with whatever the Board’s Professionals recommend.  We will deed the easement to the township.


November 3, 2003                                                                                                       Page 5

 

Mr. Vincenti said the area in question is on a single lot.  It is 250’ in length.  The easement starts at the easterly property line and runs 12’ off the property line.  He explained 50’ of the retaining wall will be on lot 5.04.  The easement will be maintained by the property owner of lot 5.04.  Lot 5.05 will belong to the township. 

 

Chairman Braun said the Board feels that the retaining wall would be better off being maintained by the property owner or an association.  Mr. Vincenti explained lot 5.04 will have the whole retaining wall.  We could deed restrict that portion so it cannot be subdivided.  Chairman Braun suggested moving the property line to the west to hold the full retaining wall and fence.   

 

Attorney Krimko said lot 5.01 will have a detention basin.  We can keep it as part of lot 5.01 or deed it to the township.  Chairman Braun said to leave it the way it is. 

 

Attorney Krimko said the applicant can comply with most of the suggestions in the Board Professional’s review letters.  The only thing we cannot comply with is having a landscape architect.  We are asking for a waiver for that.  Attorney Rubino said if the Engineer is not satisfied with the landscape plan you will need a landscape architect.

 

Mr. Vincenti said they will limit the clearing of trees.  They will install a snow fence showing the clearing lines. 

 

Captain Morris asked if the sign is being moved from the site triangle.  Mr. Vincenti said yes.

 

Captain Morris asked about curbing.  Mr. Vincenti said it will be angled lay down.

 

The application was open to the public.

 

Frances Pilot, Lakewood Road, was sworn.  Ms. Pilot asked what the retaining wall will be made of.  Mr. Vincenti said it will be a concrete block wall.  Ms. Pilot asked if a fence would be on top of it.  Mr. Vincenti said there will be a 4’ high chain link fence on top for safety.  Ms. Pilot asked how long the retaining wall will be.  Mr. Vincenti said 310’.  Ms. Pilot asked how far it will be from the property line.  Mr. Vincenti said about 10’.  Ms. Pilot asked about the trees behind the wall.  Mr. Vincenti said the trees that are there now will remain. 

 

Ms. Pilot asked about the detention basin.  What are the requirements to take care of it?  Mr. Vincenti said the property owner has to take care of it like any other lawn.  He said every two weeks the property owner will go down and clean out any leaves.  Ms. Pilot asked how deep the basin is.  Mr. Vincenti said about 2’.  Attorney Rubino asked about a maintenance schedule.  Mr. Vincenti said they will have a maintenance manual.  Once the manual is approved by the engineer it will be given to the property owner.  Mr. Gerken said it should be spelt out in the deed.

 

Ms. Pilot asked when construction will begin.  Mr. Vincenti said subject to the township’s approval it should begin within 6 – 9 months, early to mid summer.

Alex Tsoukalis, 2516 – A Ramshorn Drive, was sworn.  Mr. Tsoukalis said the rear of his house is on the south portion of this development.  The setbacks are 50’.  He said he would like to see a 50 – 80’ buffer and have it deed restricted so they don’t come and take down that buffer.  Attorney Krimko said there is no residence to residence buffer requirement.  The homeowner should have the right to place a structure on the site as long as it is within the legal requirements.  Attorney Rubino said there is nothing in our ordinance requiring a buffer between residences.  Chairman Braun said the buffer will be up to the homeowner.  They can take down any trees that they want.  We can’t do anything about that.  We don’t buffer residence to residence.  Attorney Rubino said the Board has no authority to do that.  The applicant has to come in and apply for a tree removal permit.  There will be markings.  Once the house is built we cannot make the homeowner keep the trees.

 

Stan Katz, 1523 Lakewood Road, was sworn.  Mr. Katz said he is behind the retaining wall.  He said there is no green behind him.  Mr. Vincenti said there is some room for some small plantings.  We can put some in. 

 

Mr. Katz asked if there was going to be a fence around the basin.  Mr. Vincenti said no.  Chairman Braun said it is only 2’ deep. 

 

Mr. Katz asked what does it mean to deed restrict a lot.  Chairman Braun said that includes a number of things.  The lot cannot be subdivided.  It states the ownership of the retaining wall.  It will also state no structures can go on that lot.

 

The application was closed to the public.

 

Mr. Luttman moved to approve the application for major subdivision subject to payment of taxes and applicable assessments.  The applicant will comply with the requirements of Freehold Soil Conservation District, Monmouth County Planning Board and Monmouth County Board of Health.  The applicant will obtain approval from NJDEP and NJDOT.  The applicant will comply with Wall Township Affordable Housing Trust Fund.  The applicant must obtain a tree removal permit.  The applicant will comply with review letters from the Board Professionals.  The applicant will comply with the review letter from Wall Township Fire Prevention dated July 11, 2003.  The applicant must remove the existing home.  The applicant must apply for the necessary street opening permits.  The applicant shall meet with the Wall Township Police Department prior to construction.  Tree clearing will be subject to Board Engineer approval.  A maintenance manual for the detention basin shall be submitted to Board Engineer for approval.  The applicant shall remove the entrance signs.  Lot 5.05 shall be deed restricted.  Waivers are granted.  Mr. Rible seconded the motion which was unanimously approved by a roll call vote.  (Messrs. Luttman, Rible, Brosnan, Farrell, Kiley, Morris, Mesdames Stacy and Wilson and Mr. Braun voted yes.)

                                                                        Cheryl Bergailo, Planner

 

Attorney Pittenger said this application does not propose any development at this time.  The property is on Highway 35.  He said they are here to develop municipal boundary.  Attorney Pittenger explained they are proposing to reduce lot 25 in size.  It will allow lot 2 in Spring Lake Heights to have a back yard.  We are proposing to eliminate all the lot lines in Wall Township to make one lot.  Lot 25.01 will be attached to lot 2 & 43 in Spring Lake Heights.  Attorney Pittenger said Ms. Siegel, Wall Township Tax Assessor, said the new lot would go to Spring Lake Heights.  Through an assessor’s agreement Spring Lake Heights would collect taxes for the small lot.  This meets all zoning requirements.

 

Ms. Wilson said an assessor’s agreement is being done instead of a direct transfer.  Attorney Pittenger said yes.

 

Ms. Wilson asked if the applicant can comply with Mr. Hoffmann’s review letter.  Attorney Pittenger said he has reviewed that letter and they have no problems complying. 

 

Ms. Wilson stated, referring to Mr. Hoffmann’s review letter, no variances are needed for lot frontage on lot 25.01 because it will be merged with block 43 lot 2 in Spring Lake Heights. 

 

Ms. Wilson, referring to Mr. Gerken’s review letter, asked for testimony regarding the disposition of the existing fence on lot 25.  Attorney Pittenger said the fence will be removed.  There is no buffer needed at this time.  Lot 25.01 will just be a backyard.

 

The application was open to the public.

Tom Barth, Block 151, Lot 31, was sworn.  Mr. Barth said his understanding is that there is a 50’ buffer required.  Mr. Gerken said just on commercial sites.  Attorney Rubino said the applicant is not developing that property now.  You will be notified if and when he does.  We are only talking about taking a piece of property and adding it to lot 25.  There is no other application before the Board.  Chairman Braun stated we have a commercial buffer requirement and it is 75’.  He cannot clear the lot now.  Attorney Pittenger said at this time there is nothing additional before this Board.

 

The application was closed to the public.

 

Ms. Wilson moved to approve the application for minor subdivision subject to the payment of taxes and applicable assessments.  The applicant will comply with the requirements of Monmouth County Planning Board and Monmouth County Board of Health.  The applicant shall comply with the review letters of the Board Professionals.  The applicant shall comply with John Hoffmann’s letter dated September 18, 2003 as amended.  The existing fence on lot 25 will be removed.  Lot 25.01 will be merged with lot 2, block 43 in Spring Lake Heights.  The proposed subdivision will be perfected by filing of a map.  Pins shall be set at the rear corners of proposed lot 25.01.  Appropriate approvals are required from Spring Lake Heights.  The merged lot will require an assessor’s agreement for taxing purposes.  Variances and waivers are granted.  Mr. Farrell seconded the motion which was unanimously approved by a roll call vote.  (Ms. Wilson, Messrs. Farrell, Brosnan, Kiley, Luttman, Morris, Rible, Ms. Stacy and Mr. Braun voted yes.)

Mr. McCarthy gave his credentials which were accepted by the Board. 

 

Mr. McCarthy said the site contains 9.26 acres.  It is boarded by four roads.  Wyckoff Road is to the east, Outlook is to the north, Campus Parkway is to the west and Route 33 is to the south.  The site is wooded.  The site is located in the OR-10 zone. 

 

Mr. McCarthy explained the applicant is proposing two-two story office buildings.  The first building will be to the south.  It will be 61,200 s.f.  The second building will be to the north.  It will be 30,200 s.f. for a total of 91,400 s.f.

 

Mr. McCarthy said the application needs two variances.  The site contains 9.26 acres where 10 acres is required.  The front setback required is 150’ and we are providing 100’. 

 

Mr. McCarthy said a full driveway is being proposed off Outlook Drive.  There will be a right in and right out.  The driveway will be 30’ in width.  All aisles will be 25’.  There will be full circulation around both buildings.  A through access plan has been submitted.  We will loose a parking space and make it so a truck can turn.  We are proposing one loading zone.  Building “J” will be all office space.  There will be 15,000 s.f. of storage space in the warehouse.  The trash enclosures will be along the main throughway between the buildings.  They will have easy access.  457 parking spaces are required and 457 spaces are proposed.  We will have ten handicap spaces.  Parking is distributed.

 

Mr. McCarthy said we meet the existing grades.  There will be no retaining walls.  There will be a dedication of ROW at Wyckoff and Route 33 for future road improvements.  The jug handle will be removed. 

 

Mr. McCarthy said the drainage will go to the detention basin which was previously installed and it will accept this drainage.  The applicant will connect to water and sewer.  There will be four hydrants around the site. 

 

Mr. McCarthy said a sufficient amount of trees will be saved, about 17% of the site.  The lighting package will meet township ordinance.  There will be two signs, one at the entrance and one at Campus Parkway.  They will comply with township ordinance.  Parking meets the building requirements. 

 

Captain Morris said the applicant is going to eliminate one parking space so trucks can turn a round.  Mr. McCarthy said yes. 

 

Captain Morris asked how close the jug handle is to the parking.  Mr. McCarthy said the jug handle will be removed.  The County Engineer has plans to start the work in the spring.

Chairman Braun said if the jug handle is not removed the applicant will have to put up some type of plantings.  Attorney Aikins asked if we can make that a condition of C.O.  We could bond for the cost of that.  Chairman Braun said the Board is okay with that. 

 

Mr. McCarthy said they agree to everything else in the Planner and Engineer’s review letters. 

 

Chairman Braun said the Board is asking that a couple of spots in the front of the building be reserved for deliveries.  Mr. McCarthy agreed.

 

Ms. Bergailo said the applicant has to only provide 47 additional shrubs.  The only additional landscaping will be in the area of the jug handle if it is not removed.  Mr. McCarthy agreed.

 

Mr. McHenry gave his credentials which were accepted by the Board.

 

Mr. McHenry said the nature of the buildings go together.  This project is no different.  It will have the same brick and stucco.  The glazing will be the same.  The buildings will have four sides, four fronts.  They will have red brick, beige stucco and tinted glass. 

 

Andrew Thomas gave his credentials which were accepted by the Board.

 

Mr. Thomas explained the variances.  He explained 10 acres is required in this area and we are providing 9.1 acres after the dedication to Route 33.  He explained 150’ is required for frontage and we are providing 100’.  The front yard setback was done 12 years ago.  He gave the setbacks of the other buildings.  All of them are less than the 150’ requirement. 

 

Mr. Thomas said the granting of these variances will not have a negative effect on public good.  The construction of the buildings will not crowd the site.  It will be consistent with the over all outlook.  This is one of the last properties to be developed.

 

The application was open and closed to the public.

 

Mr. Gerken asked if the Glendola Fire Company letter was addressed.  Mr. McCarthy said we don’t have a problem with that review letter.  We will comply.  He said he addressed most of those items. 

 

Mr. Farrell moved to approve the application for preliminary and final site plan subject to payment of taxes and applicable assessments.  The applicant will comply with the requirements of Freehold Soil Conservation District, Monmouth County Planning Board and Monmouth County Board of Health.  The applicant will obtain approval from NJDEP and NJDOT.  The applicant will comply with Wall Township Affordable Housing Trust Fund and ADA requirements.  The applicant shall obtain a tree removal permit.  The applicant shall comply with the review letters of the Board Professionals.  The applicant will comply with review letters from Glendola Fire Company, Wall Township Fire Prevention, Monmouth County Planning Board, Monmouth County Board of Health and traffic analysis letter.  The applicant shall install a Knox Box system.  The applicant shall submit application for Subtitle 1 of Title 39.  Basement shall be
