Board approves variance for 99 Charlotte Drive with conditions
Summary
The Board of Adjustment approved a C variance for a single-family home at 99 Charlotte Drive (applicant Richard Cormier) on Dec. 17, 2024, attaching conditions including tree replacement, roof-leader connections to stormwater, shed removal, and submission of walkway easement documentation.
The Clark Township Board of Adjustment approved a resolution Tuesday imposing site-specific conditions on a C variance for 99 Charlotte Drive, an application filed by Richard Cormier.
Staff summarized the application as a request for a single C variance to allow construction of a single-family house on the existing lot. The board incorporated multiple conditions into the resolution before voting: a fence only on the right side of the property (no fence on the left), compliance with the township’s street tree ordinance including replacement of five trees that will be removed, connection of new roof leaders from the house directly into the stormwater system, coordination with the adjacent Lot 101 to avoid compromising a stormwater pipe (and relocation of that pipe if necessary), removal of an existing shed on the property, and submission of a copy of any easement documentation for a walkway that may encroach on the stormwater easement.
"...they were going to provide, a copy of that easement to determine whether or not they needed to be removed or relocated," a staff member said while describing the condition related to the walkway easement.
A motion to approve the resolution was recorded in the transcript as offered by William Helm; a second was recorded but the speaker is not identified by name in the transcript. The board took a roll-call vote and the transcript records affirmative votes from Mark Hayden, Thomas Mead, Douglas Crock, Chris Tierney, William Helm and Chairman Ed Ruth, and a recorded "no" associated with John Kalaguer in the roll call. The chair declared the motion carried.
The board directed staff and the applicant to follow up on implementation items: the applicant to provide easement documentation for review and the building department to work with the applicant on tree replacement locations and on stormwater connections. Compliance with the resolution’s conditions will be verified by the township’s building department as the permitting process continues.
The resolution’s conditions are now part of the approval; there was no further public comment recorded on the application and the board adjourned.
