Re: Preliminary & Final Major Subdivision Approval – Review #1 Application No. 674 / Escrow P32653
Applicant: Shakki, LLC
Location: 102 Sams Road
Block 20101, Lots 29 & 30
File: 1512-P-640
Dear Ms. Morrison & Planning Board Members:
REMINGTON & VERNICK ENGINEERS has received the above captioned for review. The Applicant is seeking Preliminary and Final Major Subdivision approval to subdivide existing Lots 29 & 30 into 11 proposed lots (Lots 30.01 through 30.11) consisting of 9 new single-family residential lots and 2 stormwater management basin lots.
The site is located on the northerly side of Sams Road at the terminus of the road. The subject site consists of 13.2 acres and is located in the R-1 - Residential Zone District. A portion of the site is within the Conservation Overlay Zone. The site is not within the Pinelands Area. The Applicant is proposing to service the lots with public water and sanitary sewer.
Existing Lot 29 is currently developed with a one-story single-family dwelling with a garage, front and rear porches, a looped gravel driveway, sidewalk, a shed, a chicken coop, a fire pit, a play area, and solar panels. The majority of the lot is wooded. Existing Lot 30 is currently wooded and undeveloped.
On October 19, 2020, the Applicant (County Line Construction – Lot 30 only) was granted preliminary and final major subdivision approval by the memorialization of Planning Board Resolution #2020-18 to create 5 residential building lots and 1 stormwater management lot.
On February 21, 2023, by the memorialization of Planning Board Resolution #2023-02, the Applicant (County Line Construction – Lot 30 only) was granted 2 – 1-year extensions for the preliminary and final major subdivision previously granted by Planning Board Resolution #2020-18.
The Applicant proposes to relocate the Sams Road right-of-way and improve the road to RSIS standards with a 50 ft right-of-way and a 30 ft cartway within the proposed subdivision and extending the improvements approximately 200 ft into the existing right-of-way. The existing right-of-way of Sams Road is 41.5 ft and the existing cartway is approximately 18 ft wide. The existing roadway condition will remain at the intersection of Gail Chambers Road. A portion of the Sams Road right-of-way is to be vacated via application to the Township Council of the Township of Jackson.
The proposed improvements include 4,000 sf, 2.5-story single family dwellings with basements, an approximately 18 ft wide driveway, street trees, lighting, and an infiltration basin on each residential lot. Sidewalk and curb are proposed along Sams Road within the site development. A small portion of sidewalk is not provided adjacent to New Lot 30.11.
This report consists of our review of the Subject Application for conformance with the Jackson Township Land Use and Development Regulations Ordinance (Chapter 244) and is limited to planning issues. Engineering and legal issues shall be reviewed by the Board Engineer and Solicitor, respectively.
