Haddon Heights Planning Board Postpones Deck Construction Application Due to Applicant’s Absence
- Meeting Overview:
During the January 16, 2025 meeting of the Haddon Heights Planning Board, a discussion unfolded regarding the application for constructing a deck on San Drive. The application, filed by Pasqual Evangelista, was deferred to the next meeting as the applicant was not present. This decision was made to ensure compliance with procedural requirements, despite the presence of a representative with proxy authorization. The board emphasized the importance of the property owner’s presence to avoid future legal challenges, highlighting procedural diligence.
In addition to addressing the deck application, the Planning Board engaged in its annual reorganization. Jeff Hanson was re-elected as the chairperson, while Dean Doukakis was appointed as vice chairperson, and Suzanne Ritter continued as secretary. The board also confirmed several professional appointments, including the reappointment of Parker McKay as the solicitor and Steve Bach Associates as the planning engineer and planner. These appointments were consolidated into a single motion to streamline the process.
Furthermore, the board considered three resolutions related to previous cases, granting approval for variance relief applications from December 2024. These included bulk variance relief for single-family dwellings and C variance relief for properties on Sycamore Street, Guy Drive, and Oak Avenue. Each resolution was passed without objection.
