Committee Meeting Minutes 8/13/13

The minutes from the 8/13/13 meeting were approved at the 8/25/13 meeting.
An excerpt from the Public Discussion:

Mr Bruce Dooley, resident and business owner, expressed his dissatisfaction with small businesses not being able to utilize the Township Transfer Station. Mr Dooley stated as a business owner he pays the same taxes as a home with children attending the school and he does not benefit from the school.  Mr. Dooley stated controls have been put in place to not overload the transfer station, which he asked should be allowed by business owners as well.  Committee briefly discussed and noted the Ordinance may need to be reviewed, noting they are upholding what is currently on the books.

Mr. William Errera recommended that the Zoning Officer position not be left to make autonomous decisions, noting he has received two summonses from the Zoning Official which addresses issues from 1974 - 1995.  Mr. Errera stated he has been issued a summons for the entire Code Book, Chapter 144, and has requested it be more specific and is waiting a response.
