Par 3/Tee Bar Restaurant. (See Planning Board, 11/24/25) The Board approved a stormwater and wetland permit so that the operator can move forward on constructing the connection to the sewer system – but adjourned the hearing on the amended site plan until still unresolved site plan issues, including how to deal with the sound level from both indoor and outdoor music, outdoor lighting and need possible need for netting to bolkd golf balls from entering abutting proprtires. The operator will be hiring an acoustical engineer,
Underhill Farms. The applicant is asking the Board for the following changes to its site plan
— Construction of a 6’ high fence, approximately 400 feet in length, along Glen Rock Street to screen the rear o the townhouses. According to the applicant, the landscaping that was approved as part of the original site plan would be behind the fence. Board members appeared concerned about this request and asked the applicant to provide more information.
–Construction of a pump house near the pond to house the site’s irrigation system. The Board had no issue with this request.
— Drafts of two signs documenting the site’s history. One would be placed on the pump house building and the other somewhere near the Underhill House.
— Route 118/Underhill intersection. (See Town Board May 6 and and October 14, 2025.) The major issue was the Board’s clear displeasure that while its original approval site plan called for four pedestrian crosswalks at the intersection, the Town Board scaled back the project only two crosswalks when the initial construction bids came in too high and the Board decided to scale back the project – for an estimated potential savings of about $176,000. According to the applicant, the town and/or the developer will continue to additional funding for the other two crosswalks although it was not clear whose responsibility it was to ultimately pay for those two additional crosswalks.
The applicant advised the Board that the project might not be complete and one of the buiilder until March-April.
Nantucket Sound (See Planning Bo9ard, November 24, 2025.) The applicant presented a plan for the Baldwin Road entrance to the Mohansic Trailway that included additional invasive removal over and above what was required as part of the original site plan, plus additional new landscaping, two benches and signage.
Walt Daniels, one of the volunteers who built the trail anda member of the New York New Jersey Trail Conference that maintains the trail as part of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with town, advised the Board that the invasives needed to be removed before any new plantings could be installed and that the process could take two or more years depending on how they were removed. After some discussion, the applicant advised the Board that the contractor hired to do the work was planning to dig out the roots, a process, that, if done deep enough, could eliminate the roots in one year. The Board indicated that it could increase the original $20,000 bond for the work to cover the delayed new landscaping. The total new mitigation plan was estimated to cost between $35,000-$40,000.
On Mr. Daniels’ advice, the Board will eliminate the benches from the plan and the applicant will work with the planning department to find other suitable locations.
1968 East Main Street (aka 166 East Main Street.) The location of an existing dental pratice, the applicant is planning to install a series of rooftop solar panels. Some of the panels will be visible along Route 6. The applicant will return to the Board with more details.
MJM Subdivision.(See Planning Board, October 20,2025.) At the public hearing, the applicant explained how stormwater runoff from the site will not flood the abutting Ponderoa townhouses on Adela Court. Most of discussion centered around how the existing properties would be buffered from the new houses which could take up to five years to be built, or longer depending on demand.
Based on a prior discussion with the Board, it was agreed that that with the exception of trees that would have to be removed to construct the road and other utilities, the remaining trees would not be removed until the Board approved the placement of each house on each of the 13 lots; the mechanism for how to address this delayed tree mitigation remains to be worked out. A total of 313 trees could be removed, 94 of which are invasive species.
