Mayor & Council, Zoning Board Meetings Top The Week Ahead

Mayor and Council work session and regular meeting of the zoning board top what's going on in New Milford this week.

 

The Mayor and Council will hold their monthly work session Monday at 7pm in the upstairs conference room at Borough Hall.

On the agenda is discussion of the course of action regarding the rezoning study, rent leveling initiative, and pedestrian crossing at New Milford High School

The regular monthly meeting of the Zoning Board is Tuesday at 7:30pm in the council chambers of Borough Hall. Hekemian and the development of the United Water property is not on Tuesday's agenda. Two special meetings have been designated for the continuation of that hearing--Sept. 19 and Sept. 27 at 7pm in the council chambers of borough hall.

On the Zoning Board's agenda for Tuesday is the continuation of Gospel Fellowship Church's application for change of use of the property to a house of worship, side and rear yard buffer, and parking variances.

Sanzari's New Bridge Inn is also returning to continue its hearing for variance approval on the demolition of two residential houses to create a parking lot, restaurant expansion, impervious lot coverage, front and side yard setbacks, parking, signs and seating.

If you're against developing by the high school, you need to let our M&C know rezoning this property to commercial is a step in the wrong direction. They are poised to vote this way and we need to ask them not to. So, please try to attend tonights meeting.

We won't forget thier vote when it's our turn - on election day.
SOD!

"To lead people, walk beside them … As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence. The next best, the people honor and praise. The next, the people fear; and the next, the people hate … When the best leader’s work is done the people say, ‘We did it ourselves!"

What's amazing is the amount of SOD signs appearing throughout NM. Hopefully, our well informed leaders in Boro Hall will not rezone this land and compromise with the developers as Councilman Berner alluded to in the Bergen Record a few months ago. Last week's ruling in Ceder Grove puts a halt on developers looking to sue Municipalities over COAH (thank you Gov. Christie). If our M&C had a backbone they'd listen to their constiuents and not developers, and prevent this land from being developed. Exhaust all means, which they haven't, to make sure this land remains open and gets purchased through environmental groups and maybe we could get that field we all want there rather than by the middle school. Wake up people and join us tonight at boro fall.

It will be interesting to see how many political party signs will appear on people's property this year.
