September 19 th AH Planning Board Meeting
The Planning Board has set Tuesday, September 19 th to continue the hearing for the Kalian property at 160 First Ave at E. Garfield ave. But whether the engineer completes the review and makes a determination may make it a major or minor decision.
At last night’s meeting of the planning board, it was reported changes have been made to the design and have been submitted to the borough engineer for his review. Board attorney Michael Steib noted the review must be completed within two days in order to have the continued meeting on September 19 th.
If the engineer determines the changes in the revised package are minor, those changes would be identified and discussed at the September 19 th meeting .
Should the engineer determine the changes are major in the revised plans he is reviewing, that would require a new application and the resubmission of the overall plan.
That means that basically, Kalian would have to start from scratch once again in order to have the new plan considered by the planning board, including advertising the meeting and notifying residences within 200 feet of the property, making it difficult to meet the deadline for a Sept. 19 meeting.
