Finally, the Applicant proposes install a series of small-scale bioretention basins to the east of the new equipment and to construct six (6) 70-foot tall lightning masts to protect the new equipment from lightning strikes. The Applicant is proposing to utilize temporary construction trailers on the Property for the duration of the installation of the improvements discussed above.

Section 25-7.1, Attachment 3, Table of District Regulations, Part B: Bulk Standards of the Land Use Regulations provides that the maximum permitted height is 2.5 stories and not exceeding 35 feet. The Applicant proposes to install six (6) 70-foot lightning masts, when measured to the adjacent finished grade, and some ancillary utility equipment (bus supports and lightning finials) over 35 feet. As a result, the Applicant seeks variance relief pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-70.d.(6). The Applicant also seeks the following additional bulk variance relief from Section 25-7.1, Attachment 3, Table of District Regulations, Part B: Bulk Standards pertaining to the O-R Zone: (1) a variance from the requirement that the front yard and side yard setback of corner lots must be a minimum of 100 feet, whereas the Applicant proposes front yard setback along Mount Pleasant Avenue (State Highway Route 10) to be 77.9 feet and (2) a variance from the requirement that the maximum permitted lot

coverage is 30%, whereas the Applicant proposes the lot coverage to be 49%. Additionally, the Applicant seeks a variance from Section 25- 8.4.d. of the Land Use Regulations, which provides that fences or walls to be used for screening in nonresidential districts may not exceed six feet in height. The Applicant proposes perimeter fencing that is eight (8) feet in height. The Applicant seeks to continue the following pre- existing nonconformity on the Property, or in the alternative, seeks variance relief, to the extent relief for such continuation is required: (1) to permit a space between buildings of 20.76 feet, whereas 150 feet is required. The Applicant also requests that the Board grant any additional approvals, permits, variances, interpretations, waivers or exceptions reflected in the plans and materials filed (as same may be amended or revised from time to time without further notice) or determined to be necessary during the review and processing of this application.
