AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER www.westorange.org 4 Other Issues The applicant should provide additional information regarding the required number of parking spaces for the overall site, as the additional expanded use requires 16 additional spaces and the applicant is increasing the parking supply by two spaces. The parking calculation table on Sheet SP-100.00 states that 663 spaces are required per a site plan last revised on July 31, 2014 and approved by the Board on August 26, 2014. However, these dates are not consistent with the prior West Orange Zoning Board of Adjustment resolutions submitted with the application, which have adoption dates of December 16, 2010 (ZB-08-37), January 17, 2013 (Amended Resolution ZB-08-37), April 16, 2015 (ZB-15-03) and August 18, 2016 (ZB-16-05). In addition, the location of the two proposed new parking spaces should be clearly delineated on the site plan. The applicant should provide additional information regarding proposed tree removal and planting, as well as any other landscaping that is proposed (see comment below). The Township of West Orange Site Plan Review Advisory Board (SPRAB) held a meeting on March 7, 2023. At this meeting, the SPRAB reviewed the application with the applicant’s attorney, engineer, architect and planner. One issue raised at the SPRAB meeting that remains to be addressed is as follows: • Tree removal: The application proposes the potential temporary removal of some trees in a landscaped area to the west of the proposed building addition, which would be replaced once construction is completed. Although it is not clear a tree removal permit would be necessary for temporary removal of trees, the applicant agreed to submit an application for the permit. This information has not yet been provided. The applicant indicated its professionals will submit additional information, as necessary, with the intention of being scheduled for an upcoming Zoning Board of Adjustment meeting.
