Waldwick Zoning Board approves multiple residential variances; several applications pass unanimously
Summary
At its meeting the Waldwick Zoning Board approved a string of residential variance applications — including 14 Long View Drive, 52 Grand Avenue, 75 Franklin Turnpike and 12 Kathy Lane — while noting standard permit conditions and the 45‑day publication challenge window. One lakeside application (41 White Pond) was carried for further engineering and DEP review.
The Waldwick Zoning Board voted on several residential variance applications during the session. Board members moved and seconded motions to approve multiple routine C1/C2 variances; each approval was recorded with the board’s standard conditions to comply with engineering comments and required municipal and DEP/DP permits.
Approved applications at a glance: - 14 Long View Drive (applicant Ryan Pehus): second‑floor addition and front/rear setback relief. Motion to approve passed unanimously; standard conditions require compliance with the board engineer’s comments and any DEP/DP approvals.
- 52 Grand Avenue (applicants Ashley and Luis Milan): second‑floor addition over existing footprint; board found the request largely technical and approved with conditions.
- 75 Franklin Turnpike (applicant Abraham Marroquin): removal of a rear one‑story addition and construction of a new two‑story addition with basement; the board approved the project and noted the resubmission of a resolution next month and the 45‑day challenge period.
- 12 Kathy Lane (applicant Anthony D. Christina): one‑car garage and full second floor above an existing cape; the board approved the variances with conditions.
Procedural note: for approved items the board reminded applicants that the resolution will be published next month and that a 45‑day statutory window after publication allows members of the public to file challenges. The board also approved its annual professional appointments (board attorney, professional engineer and planner) and adjourned.
Vote tallies and conditions: the recorded roll calls for the approvals in this meeting showed unanimous "yes" votes from the members listed on the record; approvals were conditioned on obtaining any required municipal permits, satisfying engineer review items and, where applicable, securing DEP/DP permits.
