One member abstained, but the chair voted yes and the Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment adopted the site plan resolution.
A plan for 30 apartments cleared a key zoning vote. The Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment adopted a resolution granting preliminary and final major site plan approval for two three-story apartment buildings on Block 8005, Lot 4.11. Together, the buildings would contain 30 residential dwellings. The resolution records the Zoning Board of Adjustment’s decision on the site plan for that property.
The application appeared on the agenda as 17-2023Z. An attorney for the Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment presented the resolution and described the property and proposed buildings. A member moved to adopt it, another seconded the motion, and the Zoning Board of Adjustment took a roll-call vote. One member abstained. The remaining members who voted supported the resolution, including the chair, and it was adopted.
After the vote, the chair said the Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment would proceed to swearing in professionals. The account of this item does not give a construction date or describe any later permits. For residents tracking the proposal, the result is approval of both the preliminary and final major site plan for the stated parcel. When the 30 dwellings might be built was not addressed in this portion of the meeting.
Carry of Application 19-2026Z: Priank Joshy (Sycamore Drive) to November 5, 2026 Without Notice
A driveway that had already been built remains at issue in application 19-2026Z. The Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment carried the application to November 5, 2026, without notice. Counsel for the Zoning Board of Adjustment recommended the carry, and no opposition to the motion was recorded. When the chair asked whether anyone was present for the application, no one was identified.
The chair cited a zoning officer’s letter saying the driveway was nonconforming. According to the chair, the Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment had tried several times to contact the applicant by email and phone without a response. The chair said code enforcement could be sent if the issue remained unresolved, but wanted to give the applicant a chance to address the driveway.
The chair also noted a November 13 application expiration date. The Old Bridge Township Zoning Board of Adjustment chose November 5, 2026, as the next available meeting date, then approved a motion to carry the matter there without notice. The driveway question was not decided in this action; the application remains scheduled for that meeting.
