2 Bagoff: Y Rutherford: Y Cardoza (Alt.2): ---- Smeraldo: Y Guarino: Y Wilkes: Y Kapferer: ---- Klein: Y Mayor McCartney: Y SWEARING IN • The Township Professional(s) sworn in. APPLICATIONS • PB-24-06 410 Main St Holding LLC Block: 113 Lot: 262, 264 & 308 410 Main Street Applicant is proposing a 3-story mixed use development with 12 residential dwelling units above, ground floor parking and commercial space. PRESENTATION • As mentioned on the previous meeting, the property is currently vacant. • Main Street is B2 zoned, to encourage more downtown vibe on a street that is arterial and transit oriented, while there are several commercial uses that are permitted specifically outright in this zone, the governing body and this planning board actually recognized through the master plan and a change in the zoning in 2020 that the mixed-use development that they are proposing should also be considered subject to certain conditions. • They are seeking several bulk variances for this specific application. • There have been number of proposals for this site over the years that never made it to the board. But the applicant believes that this application is an appropriate and viable development that will enhance the goals that the planning board have set forth in the master plan for Main Street. • The applicant is proposing to develop the site with a new three-story mixed-use building that would consist of 12 residential units, above ground floor active storefront use along Main Street and a parking garage in the rear. • The architect Brittany Klimm entered on the record once again. She submitted updated plans to the board, and they will blend in with the historic character and the traditional elements that are already existing along Main St. • They have enhanced the facade both Main Street and the Park Dr. N. It will have a more traditional look. • There haven't been any substantial changes to the plans. The only changes that were made were reflecting the window changes and the locations and the sizes of the windows.
