Overview: During the latest Monroe Zoning Board meeting, a proposal for a height variance and the construction of a mixed-use development were discussed extensively. The board approved a height variance for a proposed warehouse and office space project on Applegarth Road, despite concerns about traffic congestion, environmental impact, and adherence to zoning regulations. The project, put forward by TJS Venture LLC, involves transforming a non-conforming use into a 7,300-square-foot warehouse with 1,400 square feet of office space. While the applicant sought a waiver for an environmental impact statement, they agreed to a three-foot height variance and various site modifications to address community concerns.
