PAGE | 6 2. It shows on sheet C-300 that sixteen (16) parking spaces are proposed including automated vertical stackers, which can accommodate the storage of thirty-two (32) total vehicles. We note that vertically stacked parking spaces are not specifically permitted within the B-2 District. Therefore, the Applicant should address the Board regarding why vertically stacked parking spaces should be permitted at the site. Additionally, the Applicant should address the Board regarding how the vertically stacked parking spaces will operate and if they will be assigned to individual units. 3. The Applicant should address the Board regarding their plans to provide assigned parking spaces at the site. If assigned parking is proposed, then details of the proposed signage must be added to the plans. 4. Revise the plans to include signage for the proposed visitor parking spaces. Additionally, the appropriate detail should be added to the plans. D. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT COMMENTS 1. The proposed development will result in the disturbance of more than 0.5 acres. As a result, this project is classified as a Major Development and is subject to the stormwater management requirements set forth in §25-29.4 of the Land Use Regulations. 2. As required for major developments, the Applicant must submit an Environmental Site Analysis to the Board as required by §25-29.10c2 of the Land Use Regulations. In his January 29, 2026 letter, Anthony Facchino, PE, PLS, PP states that the Applicant is requesting a waiver from this requirement. 3. As required by §25-29.14 of the Land Use Regulations, the Applicant must file a stormwater permit application with the Township. In his January 29, 2026 letter, Anthony Facchino, PE, PLS, PP requests that the submission of a stormwater permit application be a condition of approval. 4. The Applicant proposes to collect the stormwater runoff from the majority of the roof and parking areas and discharge it into the Turtle Brook culvert which traverses the site. A small portion of the roof runoff at the southwest corner of the building will be collected and discharged into the County drainage system in Sheridan Avenue at the intersection with Northfield Avenue. It states in the Stormwater Management Report that the project will result in a reduction of the impervious cover at the site by 5,807 sf. 5. As required by §25-29.3a2 of the Land Use

rthfield Avenue. It states in the Stormwater Management Report that the project will result in a reduction of the impervious cover at the site by 5,807 sf. 5. As required by §25-29.3a2 of the Land Use Regulations, the stormwater management system must be designed to meet the minimum standards for groundwater recharge, stormwater quality and stormwater runoff quantity by incorporating green infrastructure. We note that since this site was previously developed, the Applicant is exempt from the groundwater recharge requirements. In addition, since there will not be a net increase of motor vehicle surfaces, the Applicant is not required to address stormwater runoff quality requirements.
