Sanzari Approval Rescinded, United Water Property Hearing Top the Week Ahead

There will be a special meeting of the Zoning Board Monday at 7:15 pm in the Council Chambers of Borough Hall.

On the agenda is the adoption of a resolution rescinding the approval of the variances granted to Sanzari's New Bridge Inn at their regular meeting on Oct. 8 and the ordering of a re-hearing.

Variances to construct a parking lot where two residential dwellings are currently located and expand the restaurant by 935 square feet had been approved at the Oct. 8 meeting of the Zoning Board. Also, use, impervious lot coverage, front and side yard setback, off street parking, signs and seating were also approved.

No official will comment as to why the variance has been rescinded and a hearing re-ordered could be obtained by Patch at time of printing.

Also on the agenda is the continued public hearing for a mixed-use variance of the development of the United Water property by Hekemian -- a 70,500 sq. ft. supermarket, 4300 sq. ft. bank and a 221 residential unit multifamily housing complex along with a four-story 428 space parking garage.

Michael Dipple, an engineer and principal of L2A Land Design in Englewood, testified to changes rendered to the design of the site plan for the United Water property on behalf of the applicant at the Nov. 13 meeting of the Zoning Board. The applicant has not yet determined who will appear to testify.
