PREMISES AFFECTED: 9 Elmwood Court (River Drive and Broadway), Block 201, Lot 1.
PURPOSE: Application for Site Plan.

		THOMAS DUCH, ESQ. appeared on behalf of the applicant.
		Mr. Duch indicated they are proposing a change to their site plan. He indicated their current site shows a traffic circle in the middle of the complex. They propose to eliminate the existing traffic island and create eight additional parking spaces. He acknowledged the Board Engineer's letter indicating the site, when built, should have approximately 108 parking spaces, and it has always had 74 parking spaces.

		GUY LAGOMARSINO, P.E., 400 38th Street, Suite 307, Union City, New Jersey, sworn.
		Mr. Lagomarsino described the subject premises. He stated that after the tree in this circular area died, they decided to increase the parking spaces. He also stated that snowplowing becomes difficult with this circular area. He also stated that presently there is parking on one side but not on the other side. They will reconfigure the area, adding another tree and plantings. He added that this is not an access for a road, it's only accessing the area in the rear for garages and parking spaces. 
		They will only be minorly increasing their impervious coverage. The lighting will not be changed. There is adequate handicapped spaces. The spaces are 9x20.
		After further discussion and questioning by the Board, the Chairman opened the meeting to the public. Hearing no one, the Chairman closed the public portion.
