Ordinances on Second and Final Reading a. 2928-25 An Ordinance Amending and Supplementing Chapter 7, Traffic, Subsection 7-32.1 Handicapped Parking on Streets, of the Revised General Ordinances of the Township of West Orange (Carballo) This Ordinance will establish a Handicapped Parking Stall in front of 25 Tompkins Street. This property is a 17-unit multifamily residential building developed as part of the Harvard Press Urban Renewal Zone. The final variance approval from the West Orange Planning Board requires this Handicapped Stall. Such parking stalls are permissible under the laws of New Jersey, and they are designated Handicapped Parking Zones. Because this stall cannot be restricted to a designated building resident, any person with a handicapped plate or placard may park there. b. 2930-25 An Ordinance Amending and Supplementing Chapter 7, Traffic, Subsection 7-18.1, One Way Streets Designated, Subsection 7-12, Parking Prohibited for Street Cleaning and Maintenance, Subsection 7-14.1c, Night Parking restricted, Subsection 7-46.2 Parking Prohibited During Certain Hours On Certain Days On Certain Streets Servicing Residential Land Uses, Except by Permit, and 746.9c Permit Parking Exceptions of the Revised General Ordinances of the Township of West Orange (Carballo) Standish Avenue, between Lakeside Avenue and Park Avenue has historically been a two-way traffic street with parking on the west side opposite the residential portion, and a mix of No Parking and Loading Zones adjacent to the large commercial buildings. Increased parking demand from the larger commercial businesses, the Board of Education Bus Garage, and high-density housing nearby has created a parking issue for the local residents and smaller commercial enterprises. Based on the recommendations of the Municipal Engineer, Police Chief, and West Orange Fire Official, this Ordinance changes Standish Avenue between Lakeside Avenue and Park Avenue

mercial enterprises. Based on the recommendations of the Municipal Engineer, Police Chief, and West Orange Fire Official, this Ordinance changes Standish Avenue between Lakeside Avenue and Park Avenue to a one-way street flowing southbound. This will decrease traffic congestion in the neighborhood and allow street parking by permit at the south end of the street near the residences and smaller businesses. Residents will be issued two (2) permits per dwelling unit. Remaining permits will be issued to Standish Avenue businesses, on a first come basis, at a maximum of three permits (3) per business. One-way traffic southbound will mirror the one-way traffic northbound on Ashland Avenue allowing better circulation of traffic in the Redevelopment area of the Township and eliminate traffic from Spring Street and the City of Orange using the street as a northbound cut-through to avoid traffic on Park Avenue (CR-658). 9. Ordinances on First Reading a. 2932-25 An Ordinance Amending and Supplementing Chapter 7, Traffic, Subsection 7-7.3, Temporary Parking Prohibition for Snow Plowing and Removal, Subsection 7-12, Parking Prohibited for Street Cleaning and Maintenance, Subsection 7-14.1c, NIGHT PARKING RESTRICTED, AND SUBSECTION 7-14.7 Alternate Side Parking, Of the Revised General Ordinances of the Township of West Orange (Carballo) Beginning in 2024, Dynamic Traffic Engineering (DTE) of Lake Como, N.J. performed a Comprehensive Parking Study in all the residential and commercial areas located east of Gregory Avenue and east of Mountain Avenue to determine steps necessary to increase on street parking in the residential neighborhoods and expanded parking options in Township owned parking lots. Based on their recommendations and requests from local residents, street parking will be increased on Longview Street and Lindsley Avenue. In accordance with the DTE parking study, approximately 30 onstreet parking spaces will be gained by this change.

b. 2933-25 An Ordinance Amending And Supplementing Chapter 7, Traffic, Subsection 7-7.3 Temporary Parking Prohibition For Snow Plowing And Removal, Subsection 7-10.2 Stopping Or Standing Prohibited During Certain Hours On Certain Streets On Certain Days, Subsection 7-12 Parking Prohibited For Street Cleaning And Maintenance, Subsection 7-14.1 NIGHT PARKING RESTRICTED, And SUBSECTION 7-14.7 Alternate Side Parking Of The Revised General Ordinances Of The Township Of West Orange (Carballo) The Ordinance, which amends the Traffic Regulations of the Township, updates the parking regulations on Franklin Avenue between Main Street and Cherry Street to allow more parking for the local residents, including those on the neighboring side streets. Accommodations were made to allow for snow plowing and weekly street cleaning and maintenance. These changes were made in response to local residents’ demand for more on street parking in this neighborhood and in part suggested by the recent Comprehensive Parking Study undertaken by Dynamic Traffic Engineering for the Township. c. 2934-25 An Ordinance Amending and Supplementing Chapter 7, Traffic, Subsection 7-32.2 Restricted Parking Zones of the Revised General Ordinances of the Township of West Orange (Carballo) This amendment to the Restricted Parking Ordinance is in response to a request from a handicapped resident who resides at 250-252 Watchung Avenue and possesses the required NJ Disability ID and parking placard. Such parking stalls are permissible under the laws of New Jersey, and they are designated Restricted Parking Zones. All other Parking Ordinances under this chapter apply and supersede the use of these restricted spaces. d. 2935-25 An Ordinance Amending Chapter 25, Section 11.10 Regarding Outdoor Cafes (LegalGengaro). The purpose of this ordinance is to add additional requirements for establishments located in these B-1, B-2, and PC districts to operate an outdoor cafe. This Ordinance shall apply prospectively. 10. Pending Matters/New Matters/Council Discussion Council Consensus Appointment – Economic Development Commission 11.
