Communi unity ty Meeti ting ng August 3, 3, 200 2009 At the Easte tern n Distr trict Fire Stati tion
The meeting had 28 attendees. The consensus of the neighborhood was that there is no need for public parking and that the business operations at 341 Brigantine Dunmore Road are already having an impact on the residential neighborhood mainly due to late night traffic, trash, and noise disturbances. According to the
neighborhood is not considered to have a public benefit and is viewed as detrimental and a further encroachment into a residential area, possibly supporting an expansion of existing commercial activities. Two solutions were offered during the Community Meeting: Special Event Parking: Only allow this property to be used for parking during special events four or five times a year; Explore a different location in conjunction with shuttle service (suggestions that were made: Liberty County property at the intersection of Ft. Morris Road and Brigantine Dunmore Road; Fillingame property; other Maley property on Catbird Road;)
Disapproval The objectives of a Special Exception as defined is, in this case, unattainable due to insufficient, substantiating reasons for public parking need and also insufficient reasoning that the proposed use would be promoting the public welfare, morals, appearance, and prosperity Note: Consider lot 40 to be used for special event parking four times a year
