October 23, 2025, Special Meeting

e Chairperson Neuer asked if other counts than where Rosney Terrace intersects Eagle Rock Avenue took place.Mr. Savage said that they did not, but the counts taken (all three times) were at the intersection of Eagle Rock Avenue and Rosney Terrace. e Chairperson Neuer asked for confirmation that when those counts were performed didn't know the Genesis point of that traffic (if it came out of the Whole Foods parking lot or any of the other streets to the east, if it came from Prospect Avenue.) Mr. Savage answered that based on the initial accounts taken in May of 2021 it was observed that the directional patterns within Eagle Rock Avenue helped estimate where the site-generated traffic would originate. Chairperson Neuer asked for clarification on what site generated traffic means. Mr. Savage answered that as part of the report, as mentioned, first take existing counts, add some additional background growth, and there was one approved adjacent development that was included as well to generate no-build traffic volumes. e Chairperson Neuer asked if Mr. Savage was familiar with the intersection of Eagle Rock Avenue and Prospect Avenue. Mr. Savage said that he was familiar with it. e Chairperson Neuer asked how many times Mr. Savage has driven past the site. Mr. Savage answered that he has been to the site probably at least half a dozen times in the past year or two. Chairperson followed up by asking if he had driven to the site from the west, coming up the hill, going past Rosney Terrace to the site. Mr. Savage said yes. e Chairperson Neuer asked for the justification as to why Mr. Savage didn't do any study of the traffic exiting West Orange Plaza, almost directly across the street. Mr. Savage said that the number of trips projected that would travel through that intersection and through Prospect Avenue essentially falls below the NIDOT threshold for requiring a study of that intersection. So the NJDOT threshold is 100 peak-hour trips. e Chairperson Neuer asked if copies of accident reports from the West Orange Police Department. Mr. Savage answered yes that they received data from January of 2018, through the present. From those reports, there were really two (2) crashes. Of note, one was a rear-end crash for a vehicle turning left into Rosney Terrace. One was a vehicle turning left out of Rosney Terrace from the police report was waived across the first

o (2) crashes. Of note, one was a rear-end crash for a vehicle turning left into Rosney Terrace. One was a vehicle turning left out of Rosney Terrace from the police report was waived across the first lane of travel by a New Jersey Transit Bus, and then a vehicle in the inner lane of Eagle Rock Avenue, traveling eastbound, crashed with that vehicle. But of note there, those are two crashes of note. But in the review of this, and specifically the review of the site driveways, the Federal Highway Administration identification of five (5) correctable crashes per year as a threshold for looking at potential corrective measures. So as was mentioned, seven years of crash data was requested, and given the limited number, the driveways would function safely and efficiently as designed. Break 9:38 PM-9:45 PM Upon return from break Chairperson had a roll call performed to confirm the presence of a quorum of Board Members had returned. Chairperson Neuer asked if this development of the Popeyes and the IHOP were to be limited to one (1) restaurant, would that lessen the impacts on the traffic that this development is causing to the area? Mr. Savage said that it would, yes, generate fewer trips. 10
