L-52-2002 FORUM HOMES
The applicant proposes a subdivision to build 26 homes. The property is located on Old Clove Road off Newman Road and is known as Block 113, Lot 11.01 and Block 114, Lot 3.

Attorney William Strasser, of Strasser and Associates of Paramus and Mr. George Gloede were present for the applicant. The professionals presented their plan to solve the safety issues foreseen in relationship to this intersection and the ability of the school buses to go up Old Clove Road into the development to pick up the children. A new chart named “Intersection Improvements” was presented and was named exhibit A2.

The new plan proposes to raising the pavement grade by 1ft. causing a straighter grade without the low grade, widening the pavement on Old Clove Road to 24ft consistently all the way through, widening out the pavement on Old Clove Road to allow for a right turn onto Newman Road. Also, constructing an island to slow down vehicles coming from 628 onto Newman Road as well as for the safety of traffic coming down Old Clove Road. The professionals stated that they met with the Sussex County Engineer and got their ok.

Chairman Slate opened the meeting to the public.

Ms. Janine Carpenter, a resident of Old Clove Road, was present at the meeting to speak on behalf of the residents of said area. Ms. Carpenter referred to the court order pointing out to the negative impact and believes that fixing the road will only cause many drivers to speed up and it will only become very unsafe.

Sheila Voelker, 191 Old Clove Road agrees with Ms. Carpenter.

Greg Manzione, of Old Clove Road had a question concerning the width of the road and he wanted to confirm that if the buses can make it up and down there is no need for sidewalks.

Chairman Slate closed the meeting to the public and opened it to the Board.

Mr. DeBoer, as a member of EMS is very concerned with the unsafety of such intersection.

Mr. Cecchini agrees with Mr. DeBoer as to how unsafe the intersection is but he feels that the traffic will be slowed down by raising the road. Also there will be a sign there cautioning traffic. This will cause traffic to stop before making the left turn from 628.

Mr. Hough favors sidewalks in a development like this.

Mr. Strasser agreed that if the board wants sidewalks, the Applicant is willing to have sidewalks.
A vote was taken resulting in a 5 to 4 vote against approval of the upgrades to the intersection of Old Clove Road and Newman Road.

A motion to approve the application with caveats that buses have to go up the hill to pick up kids at the designated areas. Mr. Cecchini suggested not putting a school bus stop at the intersection.
