Deer Park applicant must re-advertise after failing to post required notice; hearing rescheduled
Summary
An applicant for 200 Claremont Street in Deer Park did not post the required sign for 10 days; the Zoning Board could not hear the matter and instructed the applicant to repost and re-advertise and to return on a new date.
Mohammed Khalek, the applicant for a proposal on 200 Claremont Street in Deer Park, was removed from consideration at the Sept. 18 Zoning Board meeting after staff reported there was no affidavit of posting and the sign had not been posted for the 10 days required by board rules. The board could not proceed with the hearing and instructed the applicant to repost the sign and re-advertise the hearing.
Board staff explained that the sign is provided as part of the application package at the zoning office and must be placed in front of the property for 10 days before a hearing. Khalek said his architect had an emergency and was not present and that they had not posted the sign. The chairman told the applicant to obtain the sign from the zoning office, repost it, and return with the required proof of posting; a new hearing date will be set after the posting and re-advertising are complete.
The board emphasized the legal requirement that the sign be in place for 10 days prior to the hearing and said the applicant must follow the required procedures before the matter can be heard. No testimony on the merits of the application occurred at the meeting.
