Mike Sanford, Sanford Surveying & Engineering, 4721 Atlantic Ave, spoke on behalf of this petition. He stated that this development was for a Dollar General on the out parcel of West 38th Street. There would be no new driveway. The existing drive would be utilized. There was a considerable grade fall on this property from south to north. Therefore, two retaining walls were proposed on the northern and eastern side. Buffer C was included along the frontage and side lines as indicated on the drawing, stormwater calculations have been submitted to the Township, and no variance they did request a sidewalk deferral.
Mr. Skellie asked what the percentage of open space was for this development. Mr. Sanford responded that the parking lot was .4 acres and therefore, under .5 acres and was not required to have the 7% requirement. They do have a perimeter of green space and the endcap plantings as well.
