08:56The application, presented by David Chaffitz on behalf of John Hava, outlined plans to construct two single-family homes on the subdivided lots. The property is located in an R60 zoning area, which requires each lot to be at least 1.5 acres. Both lots exceed this requirement. The proposal does not seek any variances, as it adheres to all applicable zoning and setback criteria. The board’s review confirmed that the subdivision meets all necessary regulations, including those relating to setbacks and conservation of natural features.

18:36The board discussed various aspects of the proposal, including the presence of wetlands and the need for conservation easements around these areas. The applicant agreed to comply with all recommendations from board professionals, including the removal of existing utility poles and compliance with underground utility requirements.

13:58The proposal also includes a plan for future driveway construction to township standards. The larger lot, containing the wetlands, will have a portion of its area designated as a conservation easement.

The board approved the subdivision application without any public opposition or need for variances. The applicant will also seek approvals from the Middlesex County Planning Board and other relevant agencies to ensure compliance with all local and state regulations.
