Boonton Planning Board meeting roundup: settlements, Dixon Avenue and two approvals
Summary
At its Jan. 14 meeting the board approved a Parkwood settlement, approved Dixon Avenue resolution, granted a subdivision approval at 221 Fulton Street and conditionally approved an outdoor vehicle storage/dealer-prep operation at 100 Fulton Street requiring stormwater and circulation verifications.
The Boonton Planning Board27s Jan. 14 public meeting addressed routine business and two major land-use applications.
Business and votes - Parkwood litigation settlement: Board approved a closed-session resolution to address pending litigation with Parkwoods. The board voted on the settlement after returning to open session. - Dixon Avenue application (20243412): Resolution to approve the Dixon Avenue application was adopted by roll call.
Major hearings and outcomes - 221 Fulton Street (application 2024-7): Approved. The board granted a D2 expansion and related bulk variances for a subdivision that creates a 5,000-sq.-ft. lot; conditions include submission of final stormwater/grading calculations, revised driveway and landscaping plans, and tree replacement. - 100 Fulton Street (industrial/dealer-prep): Conditionally approved. The board allowed a fenced outdoor gravel storage yard for roughly 99 vehicles and dealer-prep functions, but made approval contingent on stormwater verification (hydraulic analysis), Morris County Soil Conservation District certification, a carrier turning template and a circulation plan demonstrating carriers will use Division Street rather than a private condominium driveway. The applicant also committed to security measures, employee-parking designation and revised plans for professional review.
Next steps Applicants are required to submit revised, sealed plans and the technical documentation described above to the board27s professionals for clearance before municipal permits will issue.
