- Meeting Overview:
In a recent Hainesport Land Use Board meeting, the primary focus was the review of the consistency of the affordable housing ordinance, 20248, which aims to repeal and replace certain Hainesport ordinances related to affordable housing. The ordinance had already been adopted on first reading by the township governing body. The board’s task was to confirm the ordinance’s compliance with the municipal land use plan and to offer any suggestions for changes or additions.
After a roll call confirming the presence of several board members, the vice chairman, standing in for the chairman, led the meeting. The board did not delve into a discussion of the ordinance but took the time to clarify certain roles, such as the municipal housing liaison and the administrative agent. The municipal housing liaison was confirmed to be Paula Kosko, and the administrative agent, responsible for ensuring compliance with the housing element, was identified as CGP&H, the affordable housing planner.
The board opened the floor to public comment, which was limited to the ordinance in question. With no comments from the limited public attendance and none from online participants, the board proceeded to a resolution supporting the ordinance. The resolution, number 2418, was adopted unanimously by the board members present.
Other business of the meeting included the approval of minutes from the January 17, 2024 meeting, and the adoption of resolutions regarding administrative amendments to subdivision plans and continuation of non-conforming use permitting auto sales. Additionally, the board received and filed several pieces of correspondence, among them a letter objecting to an easement request related to a different development, which was marked as item L.
As part of the public comment session, an attorney and resident supported the objection raised in the aforementioned correspondence, citing concerns about potential financial and legal ramifications for the township. The board acknowledged the receipt of this objection but did not engage in a discussion on the matter, as it may have moved beyond their jurisdiction and into litigation or township committee consideration.
