Union Zoning Board Postpones Decision on Toro Homes Expansion Proposal
- Meeting Overview:
The Union Zoning Board meeting primarily centered around two significant agenda items: the postponement of a decision regarding the Toro Homes LLC expansion proposal and the approval of the 2024 annual report. The proposal for Toro Homes, which involves constructing an addition for more event space and restriping the parking lot, has been delayed until the April 2, 2025 meeting. This decision allows the board and the township additional time to review operational management details and other pertinent information submitted by the applicant’s attorney.
In the meeting, the board addressed the request from Toro Homes LLC, located on Union Avenue, to adjourn their application without further public notice. The applicant aims to expand their event space and make changes to the parking lot. The board agreed to postpone the hearing, enabling both the township and the board to fully review the necessary documentation concerning security management, hours of operation, and types of events. This adjournment was carried with the consent of the board members, and a reminder was issued that there will be no additional notifications sent to nearby property owners or published in the newspaper. The next discussion on this matter will occur on April 2, 2025.
Following this, the board reviewed and approved the 2024 annual report, which was presented by the board attorney. The report is a summary of the zoning matters addressed throughout the year, categorized by zone. It was noted that there were fewer use variance requests compared to previous years. The attorney highlighted recurring issues, such as parking area distances and signage particulars, which continue to be areas for potential code improvement. The approved report will be sent to both the Township Council and the Planning Board for further consideration of any necessary code updates.
