Resolution #2017-19 – 1301 Ocean Avenue LLC – Block 18.01; lot 1 – Applicant requesting administrative deviation from site plan. Requesting to remove garbage enclosure and relocate garbage storage to garage.
Ray Savacool reviewed request of the relocation of garbage cans to garage. Only concern would be the future owners having a larger number of cans. At the present time the units are family occupied. They are allocated a number of cans per unit.
Either way garbage cans would be put out on the curb; there was no dumpster requirement. John Dixons concern is the large number of cans in a wind storm. The building contains 7 units. The applicants engineer, Anthony Maltese, stated that at current time there will be no more than 3 cans. Chairman Struncius commented we do not know what the future holds. Mr. McGee also questioned if recycling will also be contained in garage. (yes)
