  2. From Faa website tonight’s Planning Board Agenda, on the Public Hearing portion, an applicant seeks approval to construct a girl’s school with a ballroom.

    The fact is that this supposed “ballroom” is actually a huge “Wedding Hall” aka Banquet Hall, available for rental every single night. The building plans show a Chuppah Room, Kabbolas Panim Room, Family Rooms, Simcha Hall Lobby, Wedding Meals & Dance Room aka “ballroom”, Simcha Hall Kitchen, etc., totaling an over 30,000 square foot facility. This entire underground area is totally separated from the actual school facility operations on the upper floors.....

    Since when are chasunah halls not zoned for Oak street

    1. Shhh dont tell anyone they are not zoned for Oak Street, Problem is in this town first its chasuna halls then before you know it the township will allow dormitories in residential areas... We wont be able to say NIMBY.

  3. At last night's Planning Board hearing, the Meoros Bais Yaakov School & Banquet Hall application was represented by the planner Brian Flannery. He kept dancing around the question of how big the Simcha Hall was. At first, he claimed it was only 12,000 square feet, and Mr. Herzl was eager to accept that as fact. He later changed his mind and said it was no more than 18,000 square feet.

    Apparently, the paid professional planner forgot how to do simple math. Following are the square footage numbers. Why is it so hard for the applicant to be honest? What's he trying to hide??

    Ballroom/Wedding Meals & Dance Room (12,083 SF)
    + Chuppah Room (3,871 SF)
    + Simcha Hall Lobby (3,758 SF)
    + Simcha Hall Kitchen (2,048 SF)
    + Family Rooms (1,936 SF)
    + Kabbolas Panim Room (1,878 SF)
    + Simcha Hall Restrooms (1,719 SF)
    + Staging area (524 SF)
    = TOTAL 27,293 SF

    The bigger question is how the township's own taxpayer-paid engineer totally ignored the glaring mis-truths presented by the applicant in order to get an approval? Perhaps it's time for a change..
