Mixed-use proposal for 36-50 Mt. Vernon Street reviewed as applicant fails to appear
Summary
The Historic Preservation Commission reviewed an application from Lexington Equities, LLC proposing demolition of a restaurant and four homes to build a mixed‑use project with 52 residential units and about 3,956 sq ft of retail, but the applicant was not present; the commission requested written confirmation of materials before voting.
The Village of Ridgefield Park Historic Preservation Commission reviewed an application from Lexington Equities, LLC for 36–50 Mt. Vernon Street but did not take final action because no one appeared on the applicant's behalf.
According to the application documents summarized in the minutes, the proposal would "demolish existing restaurant and four residential structures and construct a mixed-use building consisting of 52 residential units, retail, parking and 3,956 sf of retail space." Commission members had questions about the submitted drawings and asked Lexington Equities to confirm in writing that materials, finishes and colors match previously approved plans before the commission may vote.
The minutes identify the property as Block 65, Lots 19–23 and list awnings, window signage and sidewalk improvements among the items shown on the drawings; the record shows no one present to answer questions at the April 23 meeting. The commission's standard approval conditions were noted in the minutes: any approvals remain subject to the applicant securing construction permits, and sign approvals must conform to the municipal zoning ordinance and be approved by the zoning officer.
No motion or vote on this application appears in the minutes; the file was left open pending the applicant's written confirmation and any further submissions to the commission.
