Mid Monroe boosted pump station plan tabled; commission sets Aug. 1 contingency for waiver
Summary
The commission tabled the booster-pump-station submission because a required additional-use application was missing and set a contingency: if a time-limit waiver is not submitted by Aug. 1 the commission will recommend rejection; commissioners discussed granting a six-month extension if the applicant requests it.
Township staff told the commission on Wednesday that the Mid Monroe boosted pump station plan, submitted as a second submission, lacked the separate additional-use application required for review. Because staff had not received the necessary materials, the commission moved to table the item pending submission.
Committee member 7 suggested a contingency if the waiver was not received: "If they don't submit it, I think there should be a contingency," and committee member 5 proposed a firm deadline. Committee member 5 moved that the plan be recommended for rejection if a time-limit waiver was not received by Aug. 1 and said, "If we do receive it, then we will table it." The commission approved the motion.
Commissioners also discussed the appropriate extension length for any time-limit waiver; staff noted prior extensions of three or six months are typical, and several commissioners favored a six-month extension in this case to give applicants time to resolve outstanding items. The commission asked staff to request the waiver and to provide a clear contingency timeline in writing to the applicant.
Outcome and next steps: the Mid Monroe submission is tabled; staff will notify the applicant that a time-limit waiver must be filed by Aug. 1 to avoid a recommendation to reject the plan, and if the waiver arrives the commission will reconsider the item and may grant a six-month extension.
