Speaker 3Yes, there are two changes. End star properties is adjourned until May 25th with no further notice, and 100 Lakeview rear is adjourned until May 11th with no further notice. Those are all the changes I have. Thank
Speaker 0You very much In the interest of efficiency for tonight's meeting, I'm gonna go out of order. I'm gonna take item number nine first. Henry has some issues he needs to address with the applicant. The item number is 9 23 dash zb dash 23 v. Sanders.
Speaker 3Are the Sanders present?
Speaker 0Yes we are.
Speaker 1Hi,
Speaker 3Good evening. Good evening.
Speaker 3Some issues have arisen on your application and I don't believe that you are ready to go forward tonight until you can talk to a professional to see if those issues can be handled. You applied for a preexisting nonconforming use indicating that it's been a two-family house since before 1953. That's correct. You submitted a lot of proofs on that. There's also apparently been an addition sometime in the last 30 years or so, 1994. Okay. That's a different issue than a nonconforming use. That's what's called an expansion of a nonconforming use. You haven't applied for that, but that's something that you would need to get. So what we're doing is we're recommending that we adjourn this tonight so that you don't have to notice again, or maybe you will have to notice again. And we recommend that you talk to an engineer or a planner or both so that you can amend your application and not have to start all over.
Speaker 4I have a question.
Speaker 3Sure.
Speaker 4I understood and, and I read what Henry had written and, and what he is saying is that it's, it it was an expansion. I'm a little confused because the footprint of the original structure was never changed. And what I mean by that is the garage was existing and the previous owner, when he did the, and I did not do the addition. When the addition was done, the previous owner built that on top of the existing garage and it was a permitted expansion or addition. It was permitted and it was, it's been closed out because when I went to purchase the property, I did an Oprah. I didn't know I was gonna need those proofs. So I tried to obtain it yesterday and they have seven days, so that didn't happen. But this, it was a permitted expansion edition that was inspected, approved and, and closed out. So it didn't change, like I said, it didn't change the footprint of the original house, which is a two-family. And that was my argument. It's a two-family, the addition's only, it's only available to the first floor.
Speaker 3Whether or not your addition had all the permits and approvals from the construction code official doesn't have any bearing on whether or not this was an expansion of a nonconforming use. If you enlarged, not you, if someone enlarged the living area, not the footprint, but enlarged the living area, that's an expansion of a nonconforming use. You haven't applied for that. You haven't noticed for that, and you don't have the proofs to support that at this time. And that's why we're recommending that we not go forward tonight because if you insist on going forward, we can't vote in the affirmative on this because you're not here for the right purposes. And that's why I'm recommending that you go see a lawyer to, to make things. Right.
Speaker 4Right.
Speaker 3Okay. I would recommend adjourning this for a month. So we'll announce a new date. Laura, do we know what the first meeting is in the second meeting is in June.
Speaker 1The second meeting in June is the 22nd.
Speaker 3I, I'm sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself in May. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1May 25th, but we're short three people automatically that night, so I don't know how many uses you wanna put on. I mean, we could go for the 25th, but,
Speaker 4And James, in all fairness, if I have to get a a, I'm gonna need to some time to obtain a, a lawyer and, and I have to research for a professional planner.
Speaker 3So you're okay with I'm
Speaker 4A watch, I'm Aithal mechanical engineer. I'm not an architect, I'm not a a, a planner, so I need to find who.
Speaker 3Yeah, June 2nd. Okay, so you're okay with June 22nd, Mr. Sanders?
Speaker 4I would, yeah. If I can as, as long as I get the people right?
Speaker 3Yeah. And, and if you're not ready by then, let us know and we can adjourn it again.
Speaker 4I understand. I'm, I'm working with the town. I'm trying to get this through. I've been working on this for prior to, you know, when Covid hit, unfortunately this is what's beated so much.
Speaker 3Okay. Alright. So anybody here on the Sanders application, it's going to be adjourned until June 20.
Speaker 0Thank you Mr. Sanders. Have a good evening. You
Speaker 4Too. Thank you.
Speaker 0Good ma'am. Okay, let's go to item number 5 23 dash ZB 27 v ya. Panda
Speaker 3Is Ms. Panda present?
Speaker 5Hi, good evening.
Speaker 3Ms. Panda, I need to swear you in. Could you raise your right hand?
Speaker 5Yes.
Speaker 3Do you swear that the testimony you're about to give should be the truth?
Speaker 5Yes.
Speaker 3Your name and address please?
Speaker 53 0 6 William Street Piscataway.
Speaker 3And your name?
Speaker 5Pine Pineda.
Speaker 3Thank you. Ms. Pineda, could you explain to the board what you'd like to do here?
Speaker 5We would like to making the second floor an existing, we have an attic upstairs and we would like to build a master room and two rooms and one bathroom.
Speaker 0Okay. Henry, did you have any comments or questions about this with the
Speaker 6Sergeant? Yeah, just a couple things that I need a clarification on. One is that you're not proposing any new construction over the garage, correct?
Speaker 5No.
Speaker 6Okay, that's good. And the second thing was, is that you were proposing a second driveway on the opposite side of the house, which doesn't really make sense because you have a small frontage and now we have to put another curb cut in. There's a Township street tree there. I think it would make more sense to widen the one driveway that you have on the one side so you don't have to put another opening into the street. You know, cuz you only have like a 60, 65 foot, I believe it was frontage on the property, which again, for two curb cuts, that's, it's not a lot, not much distance. For the second driveway,
Speaker 5I provide the, the specification that driveway we made last year. So it's an existing driveway from previous building like we did last year on June already. Oh,
Speaker 6You did it? Yes. So that's already been done?
Speaker 5Yes.
Speaker 6Okay. Did you get the permits from the Township for the road opening and everything? Yes. Okay. I did. Okay. Well if that's the case then the only other comment I really have is that the, the first, the, the porch in the front of the house should remain open because it encroaches into the front yard setback. So if as long as you're keeping the front porch open the way it is, then I do not have any other issues with the application. Okay,
Speaker 0Thank you Henry. Any other members of the board have any questions for Ms. Pineda? Hearing none, I'm gonna open it to the public. Anyone in the public have any questions or comments about this application?
Speaker 1No. One Chairman.
Speaker 0Okay. I'm gonna close the public portion and I'm gonna make an offer to approve this application. Can I get a second please? Call the roll.
Speaker 1Mr. Weisman?
Speaker 0Yes.
Speaker 1Mr. Patel? Yes. Mr. Regio?
Speaker 0Yes.
Speaker 1Mr. Dacey?
Speaker 7Yes.
Speaker 1Mr. Mitterando? Yes. Mr. Dacey? Yes. And Chairman Kale?
Speaker 0Yes.
Speaker 3Ms. Pineda, your application has been approved. We'll memorialize it a written document at our next meeting and mail that document to you. You don't have to be at that meeting.
Speaker 1Okay? Thank you so much. I
Speaker 0Appreciate it. Good luck ma'am. Good luck. Thank you.
Speaker 1Have a good night. You too.
Speaker 0All right, let's move on to item number 6 23 9. Christine McIn.
Speaker 7Yes. Swear
Speaker 3The, could you raise your right hand?
Speaker 7Yes.
Speaker 3The testimony you're about to give be the truth.
Speaker 7Yes it is. Your
Speaker 3Name and address please.
Speaker 7Christine McIn. 17 Water Street, Piscataway, New Jersey 8 8 4.
Speaker 3Thank you. Could you explain to do,
Speaker 7I would like to rebuild my home due to its age and the size, the usage, I'm looking to extend it by one bedroom and by about 595 feet. So essentially making a 20 1200 square foot home instead of a 600 square foot home.
Speaker 0Awesome. Mr. Hinterstein, can you address some issues with the applicant?
Speaker 6Yeah, there's just a couple of issues. I don't know if she had a chance to review the staff report. Ms. McIn, if you had a chance to review it. One is engineering recommends that concrete sidewalk and it's also a requirement for all new homes that sidewalk be installed along the entire frontage of the property with six inch apron and sidewalk along the driveway areas. The other issue is that again, so your plan would've to be revised showing that with some details. Your engineer could probably take care of that. Also, there's a moratorium on that street cuz it was recently repaved so you wouldn't probably get a street opening permit for any additional curb cuts. I don't know if when they redid the roadway you had petitioned them to add the second curb cut that you show on your plan. But if you haven't, it may be difficult for you to get that permit from the Township.
Speaker 6You could talk to the engineering department on that. But I just wanna make you aware that there is a moratorium on the road and they may allow you to do it. They may not, they may say you can only have the existing curb cut that's there now and you may have to work around that. And then also you just need to confirm that you're gonna be maintaining the garage because it's a requirement. And if so, then you just have to show how the garage is gonna be accessed from your existing or from the proposed driveways plan. Because the requirement is is that you have to have a driveway for any new home. I'm sorry. Okay. A garage.
Speaker 7Alright, so from number two, which is the concrete sidewalk, there is no sidewalk on my side of the street due to the location of where the drainage is. The Township attempted to put in one about three years ago and it canceled it due to where the drainage and the sewage is. So okay, there is no, there's no sidewalk on my side. As for the garage, the garage was never a garage. There was never a driveway in the back when this house was built in 1944, I have the original survey here which shows that there was never an actual driveway going to this masonry garage is what it was labeled when I purchased the house in 2009. And we do not use it as a garage, it is just for storage. I keep my lawnmower and weed whacker in it. There's nothing else in it other than that. Okay. As
Speaker 6But but the, what what happens is when you're knocking down your house and building a new house, you need to adhere to what the current zoning and site plan ordinances are. And unfortunately one of those ordinances requires you to have a garage. So it's fine for a house that was built in 19, you know 40 something, but for a house that's being built today, you need to have a garage so you could modify the plan that you're proposing to include a garage. And then I don't really care what you use. The building in the back for that basically is a, a large shed then even though it states it's a garage and, and that's fine, but you either need to say yes that's a garage, then you don't have to add one to the house cuz it's, it's large enough for a garage that is required in the town, but you would just have to show some access to it that it could be used as a, as a garage. Whether or not you use it as such or not, I need to believe that it can be used as a garage in order for, for it not to be needed in the new home.
Speaker 7So I must have a, A garage is is that exactly because of the size of the home? Is
Speaker 6That the case? Because
Speaker 7It's a new home because I, I understand now. Okay.
Speaker 0So again, you can use it for whatever you want. You can put in it whatever you want, but it technically we have to say that it's garage.
Speaker 7Okay. Because the problem is is that the extension of the, because where it's located, it's not accessible for a vehicle unless I literally paved half of my acreage with a driveway to get to it. So it would be more economical for me to actually just add on a garage to one of my new driveways, which now I might not be able to have both of them because I can't have a second or an opening.
Speaker 6Well you might, you still might be able to have that driveway, you just wouldn't be able to access it to the road. You know, you'd have to be creative I think in how you design the driveway. You know, almost like a, you could have it sort of a, you have it connected like an H or a T or Correct. So you still may be able to have that, you just may have to have a turnaround on the one side so that you could get back out to the same entrance point. So I mean that's something that you and the engineer I think could probably work out. I don't think that's the end of the world,
Speaker 7But, but
Speaker 6I still, and then I agree the garage may be better, you may be better off just adding it to the house or adding a new detached garage in a conforming location.
Speaker 7Okay. What would those, what would I need for the garage to be approved by the Township? What, what are the specifications that I should approach my engineer with? What am I,
Speaker 6The garage has to be 12 by 20 interior dimensions and it has to be, it has to meet the access, if it's detached, it has to meet the accessory structure setbacks. If it's attached to the house, it has to meet the principal structure setbacks. So those you could, you could obtain them from, from Laura. So, and she, she could provide that information or we could look it up in our zoning ordinance. I believe you're in an R 10 zone if I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 7Yes, it's an R 10. So
Speaker 610 yard, side yard, 35 foot front yard, which is the sa? The same, same if it's attached, it's the same requirements for the house. If it's detached I believe you have a little bit more leeway on the side. You could go up to eight feet on the side and I believe the frontal becomes work, correct me if I'm wrong, maybe 60 or or accessory structure 60 feet. Yeah, it's the front property, like more substantial. But if you put it to the rear of the home, I think you would comply
Speaker 7And I would have to extend that driveway to make it accessible.
Speaker 6Yes.
Speaker 7Okay. Alright.
Speaker 6And as far as the sidewalk goes, again that's an engineering requirement for all new construction. We're gonna have to make it a condition, it's actually in the ordinance. So if you came in to get a permit for that house, even if you didn't need a variance, you would be required to add that sidewalk. Now if there's some issue that doesn't allow you to do that, that's something you're gonna have to, or you know that prevents you from being able to put that sidewalk in. That's gonna be something you're gonna have to work out with the engineering department.
Speaker 7Okay. But so going forward, everybody on my side of the street is going to have to have a sidewalk put in.
Speaker 6If they come in for new construction or to construct a new home, it's part of the ordinance, just like the garage. You're required to have a sidewalk. Yeah. And all new construction.
Speaker 7Okay. Okay. So now am I looking for a new application package to put through or how do I go forward with what I have already or do I have to reapply?
Speaker 3No, we can go forward tonight and make these things a condition of your approval so that you would get an approval tonight. But there would be conditions attached.
Speaker 7Got it. Okay. I've never done this before. I apologize. No,
Speaker 0No, no. Please ma'am. Please don't any other members of the board have any questions for Christine? Hearing none, I'm gonna open it to the public. Anyone in the public have any questions or comments for this applicant?
Speaker 1No one Chairman.
Speaker 0Okay. I'm gonna close the public portion and make an offer to approve based on the conditions outlined by Mr. Hinterstein. Can I get a second?
Speaker 7Second.
Speaker 0Mr. Dacey.
Speaker 1Mr. Weisman?
Speaker 0Yes.
Speaker 1Mr. Patel?
Speaker 7Yes.
Speaker 1Mr. Reggio?

Speaker 1Mr. B bla?
Speaker 7Yes.
Speaker 1Mr. Mitterando? Yes. Mr. Ali? Yes. And Chairman Cale?
Speaker 0Yes.
Speaker 3Your application has been approved. It will have a couple of conditions that we just discussed. We'll Mor memorialize that in a written document at our next meeting. You don't need to be present for that. We'll mail that document to you.
Speaker 7Thank you everybody. I appreciate it. Good luck
Speaker 0Ma'am. Have a good night.

Speaker 0Good luck. Good luck Mrs. Patel.
Speaker 1Can I, Mrs. Patel?
Speaker 0Thank you. Let's move on to item number 1118 dash ZB dash 37 V 500 New Market Road.
Speaker 9Yes, good evening. My name's John Sullivan. I'm an attorney with the offices of Vest and Sullivan. I represent the applicant 500 New Market L L C, which is the owner of the property. Property's currently improved with the two-story building as well as some related site improvements. The first floor has two store fronts facing new market road and towards the rear of the building what's been used as a motor vehicle repair garage. And the second floor has three residential apartments, two of which are two bedrooms and one of which is a one bedroom. This property is located in the R 75 zone, so this particular use is not permitted under the current zoning ordinance. And we are here tonight for to ask your consideration for the issuance of a certificate of nonconformity pursuant to njs A 45 68. We have submitted a number of documents. We submitted the deed showing that the applicant purchased the property in 2016, A survey which appears to show sufficient parking area towards the rear of the building.
Speaker 9A set of floor plans showing the layout that I just previously described. Also some site photographs showing the front rear inside of the building as well as the parking area, smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector certificate that was issued at the time of purchase at 2016. Some miscellaneous construction permits. And then, you know, the main proofs would be the property tax cards that we provided. Unfortunately the tax assessor advised us that they did not have anything earlier than 1974. So we submitted I think five separate or four separate property tax cards dated 1974, 2013, 2016 and 2017. The property tax card from 1974 under type use, it indicated combination stores and apartment under the rent section indicated a junction deli as well as a Getty gas station. And in the under interior it does indicate apartments as well as office and store. Whether that the apartment number there is two or three, I could not tell you for certain.
Speaker 9It also indicates that the property was built 60 years prior, so that would be 1914 2013. Card shows the use says bill's garage and three apartments 2016 does the same thing. And 2017 indicates apartments, offices, warehouse, three apartments and an auto garage built in 1914. Tax assessor also sent along something historical, which really is not relevant to the application, but I, I'm a bit of a history buff and that told us back in 1850 it was used as a store and a pub. And in 1876 as a store and a post office, we also submitted the certification of the prior owner, Mr. Laia. My client advises me that Mr. Lori passed away since the date of certification and now, so unfortunately he cannot provide live testimony obviously. And he indicates in his certification that the property was built in 1914 and used as a deli in a motor vehicle repair since the 1940s.
Speaker 9He began leasing the property and used it as a motor vehicle repair garage in 1963. And he indicates at that time the property was also used as a deli and for residential apartments. He ended up purchasing the property in 1973 and puts the various uses as motor vehicle repair shop in Delhi with the residential apartments. And then later on the stores were used as an antique shop and as an electrical contractor office. I do have the representative of the applicant, Mr. Bill Homer, here to provide some testimony and give the board a bit of insight as to his purchase, his understanding and what he's done with the property since. So I'm gonna slide over and allow Mr. Homer, I'm gonna come into that screen. Yes. Up there.
Speaker 3Mr. Homer, can you raise your right hand? Do you swear the testimony you're about to give should be the truth?
Speaker 9Yes, you
Speaker 3Can. I have your name and address please.
Speaker 9It's Bill Homer 2 0 3 Park Avenue, Plainfield, New Jersey.
Speaker 3Thank you.
Speaker 9Mr. Homer. 500 New Market. L L C is the owner of this property? Yes. And it perched the property in 2016? Yes. And your daughter is the owner of 500 New Market L L c? Yes. And you serve as the manager of that company? Yes. At the time the property was purchased in 2016, what units existed
Speaker 10Was the three apartments, the empty garage, the stores, and that's it.
Speaker 9Okay, and by stores there were two storefronts?
Speaker 10Yes.
Speaker 9And you've shown that on the floor plan that's been submitted to the board? Yes. And had, did you make any changes to the layout of the interior of the property from the date that you purchased it?
Speaker 10No changes all except that I replaced some kitchen cabinets and countertops. That was all and repainted the apartments.
Speaker 9Okay. And at the time you purchased the property, were there any tenants in the building?
Speaker 10Yeah, there were two tenants in the apartments.
Speaker 9And which apartments? The two bedrooms. The one bedroom.
Speaker 10The two bedrooms.
Speaker 9Both of the two bedrooms?
Speaker 10Yes.
Speaker 9And overall, what was the condition of the property at the time you purchased it?
Speaker 10The condition was bad and it took some time to get it cleaned up and I tried my best to do what is necessary to make it livable. And for example, the front section of the building was terrible. The, the brick walls was falling apart. I refaced the, I had a contractor came in, put on a new facing and the concrete block facing and the building. Then in the front section of the building where the driveway is, I paved the driveway completely in the back section. I also replace some windows that like to do a lot more than what I did, but I need to get the permission that I would need to do what is necessary to make the place look livable and nice area. And if the opportunity allows itself, then I would do what I need to comply and bring it up to pass. So it would make the neighborhood very well like.
Speaker 9And in connection with that, you've had the opportunity to review Mr. Hinterstein and Mr. Chadwick's reports? Yes. And Mr. Hinterstein recommends in items two through six of his report that certain site upgrades be made. Would you be willing to do that?
Speaker 10Absolutely.
Speaker 9And Mr. Chadwick mentions some of those same things, but he also recommends perimeter fencing and or landscaping around the, the rear of the property in order to provide some privacy. Would you be willing to do that?
Speaker 10Yes, I would be.
Speaker 9And you submitted a survey in site photographs. In your opinion, how many parking spaces can be accommodated on site?
Speaker 10I would say approximately 30.
Speaker 9And you had indicated that Mr. Lori has passed away?
Speaker 10Yes.
Speaker 9And if you were to obtain approval, in addition to the, the items that are mentioned in the reports that you agreed to do, do you have any other plans to improve the building or the site?
Speaker 10Well mentioned in the, in the report. I think that should do it. As far as the improvements, I think that would really make a big difference. If there's anything additional that I can do to make it better, I would be more than happy to do so. Okay.
Speaker 9That's all the questions I have for Mr. Homer.
Speaker 0Does well, Henry, did you need to address anything above and beyond what the applicant just testified?
Speaker 6Well, again, I, I think they're willing to work with the Township. I, I think the proof state they provided as well. Some of the research that I have done, you know, I think it clearly shows that the site has been used for the, the apartments as shown and the, the garage and some retail. There may be a little question as to whether or not there's been, you know, at times maybe one retail establishment or two retail establishments. You know, the floor plans I think sort of show that space being connected with only, I think one half bath or perhaps it's not connected, but with no bathrooms that were shown on that floor plan. But again, in any event, I don't really have too many issues with the, with the certification of the nonconforming use. It's more about the, the condition of the site and the, I think the little bit of TLC that the site and the building need, as I think John has pointed out as well, I think when you come in for any CCOs at that time, they're gonna look at the uses that you're looking to put into this, you know, to the retail aspects and, and again, and the number of apartments that you have, I think it's gonna be smart to have delineated, you know, spaces for the tenants so that there's no conflict with the potential retail and garage use.
Speaker 6I don't think there should be any, you know, outside storage of, of vehicles, especially in the front yard on union. I think John's recommendation for, you know, an enclosed area for privacy for both the tenants and for the garage use will be somewhat important. So I think when, again, I, I don't think there's gonna be any issues with the uses. I think when you come in for the CCOs there could be issues, you know, if, if the parking and the site isn't, you know, updated and brought into more code compliance and delineated spaces I think. And the screening and all of those things that are shown on the applications aren't addressed prior to the, to you coming in for any kind of c c O for a use. Thank
Speaker 0You Henry. John, did you need three? Any kind of points on that? Or did Henry,
Speaker 11No, Henry and I basically did the same, same comments. The site clean cleaned up and he said he would do it as well as don't, don't pave anymore, keep the grass area for the tenants.
Speaker 0Got it. Okay. Any other members of the board of any question? Mr. Sullivan, this is your only witness? Yes, yes please. Okay, fine. I just wanted to make sure I didn't wanna proceed without your clarification. Does any other members of the board of any questions for this applicant? Hearing none, I am going to open it to the public. Anyone in the public have any questions or comments about this application?
Speaker 1No. And Chairman,
Speaker 0Okay, I'm gonna close the public portion and make a motion to approve this application. Can I get a second?
Speaker 11Yeah. Before you vote, Jim, should they kind of set a use grouping? I mean the garage is not a permitted use repair garage neighborhood business zone, right, Henry?
Speaker 6I'm sorry John, can you repeat that?
Speaker 11So I, I would think that the resolution would ca contain a stipulation of what neighborhood business uses would be permitted and garage.
Speaker 3Yeah, I think, I think they said two retail stores and a motor vehicle repair facility was the testimony.
Speaker 6Right? I mean there's testimony also that there, you know, it was used as a deli for a long time. Yeah. So,
Speaker 11Well that's a permitted used in the visit zone so Right.
Speaker 6The GB
Speaker 11Uses plus a garage cuz the garage is not
