Chair opened the item and noted the applicant was not present. Staff explained the two variance requests tied to a proposed subdivision: (1) relief for an existing front‑setback nonconformity for an existing house, and (2) a variance to allow residents to back out of parking spaces directly onto Washington Street despite the borough ordinance limiting such backing when the right‑of‑way exceeds 20 feet. Staff said these zoning variances will go to the Zoning Hearing Board; Planning Commission may comment but typically handles special exceptions that require reports.
