Land Use Board approves add-a-level for Philip Miller at 224 Berkshire Road
Summary
The board approved Philip Miller's application to add a level at 224 Berkshire Road; the proposal seeks a height of 30.2 feet where 28 feet is required and to remain within an existing nonconforming front yard (transcribed measurement flagged as potentially erroneous).
The Hasbrouck Heights Land Use Board on June 4 approved an application by Philip Miller (PB25-04) to add a level over an existing sunroom at 224 Berkshire Road. The application was deemed complete and the board voted to approve the requested variances after a presentation describing the proposal and compliance with engineering and building code requirements.
According to the transcript, the proposed addition will remain within the existing nonconforming front yard recorded as "22.3 inches" while the required front yard is stated as 30 feet; the transcript also records the proposed height as 30.2 feet where 28 feet is required. The applicant is recorded as saying the project "adheres to complying to all engineering and building code requirements." A motion to accept the application was offered by Dan Wixon and seconded by Kenneth Hampel; the roll call recorded unanimous yes votes and the application was approved.
Note on transcript numeric inconsistency: the front-yard measurement as transcribed ("22.3 inches") is likely a typographical error in the transcript given the juxtaposition with a 30-foot requirement. The article reports the numbers as recorded and flags the inconsistency for follow-up with municipal files.
