Sullivan, Jr., Esq., Scarinci & Hollenbeck, LLC, attorney for Applicant, advised the Board the Application was for final site plan approval for 100 residential units that had been granted preliminary site plan approval by Board Resolution in September 2013. The preliminary approval included several conditions; the final plan would show the conditions had been satisfied; the final plan included a detailed landscaping plan and other revisions based on subsequent comments and recommendations made by Township professionals. Mr. Sullivan explained that at the March 13, 2013 Technical Review Subcommittee meeting, Fire Official Captain Longo stated there had to be a 20 ft. wide access on the river side of the building; the requirement would have wiped out all landscaping recommendations made by the Board. Subsequently, Mr. Sullivan had spoken with Captain Longo who clarified that the Fire Department needed 20 ft. access for fire and emergency vehicles and equipment; not a 20 ft. wide zone void of all landscaping; Captain Longo indicated that with one exception, the canopy tree, the proposed landscaping plan did provide adequate access.
