5 . v NOW THEREFORE, the Board makes the following findings of fact, based upon the evidence presented at the Board’s public hearing on the Application, at which a record was made: 1. The Applicant is requesting approval for Preliminary and Final Major site plan approval with “c” variances to demolish the existing commercial building (formerly Walgreens Pharmacy) and restaurant to construct a two-story supermarket. The proposal includes regrading the parking lots and constructing 43 on-site parking spaces with EV credit for an additional 4 spaces for a total of 47 spaces proposed. 2. As the two properties are currently under separate ownership (262 Main Street Realty, LLC owns 262 Main Street and 270 Main Street LLC owns 270 Main Street), Applicant also requests to merge the lots in a reverse subdivision under one ownership interest. 3. The proposed supermarket building consists of 13,934 square feet on the first floor and 4,144 square feet on the second floor, for a total of 18,078 square feet. The second- floor space will not be accessible to customers and will be used for storage and administration. The roof will accommodate the mechanical equipment, as well as multiple solar panel arrays. 4. Applicant also seeks a tree removal and replacement permit, which is issued by the Township Forester, but §28-5.c. requires submission of a tree replacement plan to the Board, which the Applicant submitted as part of the Application. 5. The Property is irregularly shaped and has a total area of 30,218 square feet. It features frontage along three streets: 162 feet along Erwin Place, 210 feet along Main Street, and 24 feet along Prospect Place. 6. The Property generally slopes downward from northwest to southeast.
