Sayreville Zoning Board Greenlights Garage and Pool Projects Amid Community Interest
- Meeting Overview:
The Sayreville Borough Zoning Board convened to assess residential variance applications, resulting in approvals for a two-car garage and an above-ground pool with an accompanying deck. The board listened to residents’ proposals, deliberated on variance requirements, and took public comments before reaching decisions.
Firstly, the board considered Carl Dulli’s application for an above-ground pool and deck on Devonshire Road. Dulli sought a setback reduction from 10 feet to 6 feet for the side and rear of the property, allowing for the construction of a 14-foot deck adjoining the pool. The proposal included adding a pergola over the deck. Dulli explained that the adjustments would enable better access and more effective use of the outdoor space. After discussing variance requirements, including the necessity due to the pergola, the board approved the application unanimously, with the final documentation to be formalized at the next meeting.
Next, Barry J. Nielsen presented his plan for a two-car garage on Wardentown Avenue. Nielsen emphasized the garage’s purpose for personal use, including protection for his vehicles during inclement weather. He detailed the proposed garage dimensions, which exceeded standard height limits, and assured the board of adherence to property line setbacks based on a certified survey. The board approved Nielsen’s application, ensuring the garage’s compliance with zoning regulations, with formal ratification set for the upcoming meeting.
