comply with land use requirements. Mr. Kirchhofer stated that there are numerous accidents on this street due to the flooding and we have many inexperienced drivers traveling on this road. Council President Bressi stated the applicant has shown proof of compliance in resolving the issue.

JIM BEZANSON - 12 MELISSA LEE DRIVE- questioned whether ordinance 03-18 would permit churches or schools under the clubhouses and social recreational use section of this ordinance. Attorney Cipriani stated churches and schools are excluded from this amendment but meetings can be held for churches or schools on a temporary basis. It would not allow for houses of worship. Mr. Bezanson questioned if there would be multiple buildings for recreation or clubhouses throughout this property. Attorney Cipriani stated that there are two sections and the affordable housing section(s) may have their own separate clubhouse. These details are all still under discussion with the Township Planner. Mr. Bezanson confirmed that the affordable housing units would be located within the complex and not in a specific area. Attorney Cipriani stated that this statement is correct and the Court would not approve just one section for affordable housing. There will be two separate sections and there is a possibility that there will be separate clubhouses for the apartment style units. It will be an issue that will be addressed by the Planning Board. Mr. Bezanson stated that the apartments would be taking 70% lot coverage and that seems to be a large amount. Attorney Cipriani stated there are portions of the lot which are environmentally protected and construction in those areas is prohibited. Clerk Eden stated that the copy of the ordinance online has been amended and revisions were not immediately uploaded due to their late arrival to her office. Attorney Cipriani stated that the coverage indicated in the ordinance will be reviewed with the Township Planner and the Planner will be present to discuss this matter. Mr. Bezanson stated that the maximum percentage is a large amount and the developer will most likely choose the higher percentages for this project/
