Architect Dan Fortunato outlines new building plans to approval board

During the recent zoning meeting held by the Borough of Sayreville on May 28, 2025, significant discussions centered around the architectural plans for a new building designed by licensed architect Dan Fortunato. Fortunato, who is registered in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, presented his credentials to the board, which were accepted without objection.

The meeting highlighted the importance of proper architectural oversight in local development projects. Fortunato, a graduate of Lehigh State University and Drexel University, is set to guide the board through the specifics of the building's design and floor plans. This step is crucial as it ensures that the proposed structure aligns with community standards and zoning regulations.

The board's acceptance of Fortunato's credentials marks a positive step towards advancing the project, which is expected to have implications for local development and community growth. As the plans progress, residents can anticipate further discussions that will address how this new building will fit into the fabric of Sayreville and meet the needs of its citizens.

In addition to the architectural presentation, the meeting included procedural discussions about the marking of exhibits, ensuring that all necessary documentation is properly recorded for transparency and public record. This attention to detail reflects the board's commitment to maintaining an open and accountable process as they navigate zoning and development issues.

As the borough moves forward with these plans, community members are encouraged to stay engaged and informed about how these developments will shape the future of Sayreville.
