Sayreville Zoning Board Approves New Home Construction on Fire-Damaged Lot
- Meeting Overview:
The Sayreville Borough Zoning Board meeting on April 22, 2026, was marked by the approval of an application to build a new single-family home on a lot where a house had burned down in 2003. The board also handled routine resolutions and procedural matters.
During the meeting, the board reviewed an application submitted by Kimberly Burnett to construct a two-story, single-family home on Ridge Avenue. The property is a vacant lot that previously hosted a home destroyed by lightning-induced fire in 2003. Despite the lot’s shortfall in area and width—measuring 7,000 square feet and 70 feet wide as opposed to the required 7,500 square feet and 75 feet width—Burnett’s proposal adhered to all other zoning regulations. Acknowledging these variances, the board unanimously approved the application, allowing Burnett to proceed with her plans to build a home with her father, a builder, before his retirement.
