Director Borg stated that the community has been coming every month to this applicants hearing and it’s not fair to them either. Mr. Neuer stated that it is appropriate to dismiss because there is nothing on record from the applicant. Mr. Grossman stated that, had the applicants appeared, he was prepared to make a jurisdictional challenge. Mr. Neuer seconded the motion to deny without prejudice; Vote was as follows: Bullock: - Steinhart: Yes Gabry: - Sussman: - Neuer: Yes Weiss: Yes Quentzel: Yes Chairman Buechfer: Yes 2. ZB-11-05/Carp, Gerald & Ellen Carried over from 5/19/11 (Application Carried from 4/21/11) Block: 82.02; Lot: 13.05; Zone: R-1 63 Ridge Road Seeking “C” variances for the height of an existing fence and the setbacks of an existing tennis court DISCUSSION: Charles Lorber, attorney for the applicant, approached the podium. He stated that they are requesting that the application be carried over to the September 22, 2011 meeting. The reason for the request is because they have to apply for an impervious variance and more work is needed. Mr. Lorber also asked the Board how they should amend the application; do they need to re-notice and apply for the impervious variance or is a catch-all sufficient. Chairman Buechler stated that at the last meeting the applicant testified that the fence was down and that they were not using the tennis court. He asked if this was still the case and Mr. Lorber replied yes. Chairman Buechler stated that if they are requesting another variance they will have to re-notice by 9/2/11 in order to be heard at the 9/22/11 meeting. Director Borg stated that the Municipal Judge is not happy with the adjournments because this has been going on for a long time. Chairman Buechiler stated that is their issue and not this Boards issue.
