Public hearing for swimming pool variance on March 3, 2026.

Public Notice  NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING LONG HILL TOWNSHIP BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT  YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that the undersigned Applicants have filed an application with the Long Hill Township Board of Adjustment for any variance(s), waiver(s) and/or exception(s) necessary for the installation of an inground swimming pool and for the prior expansion of their paved driveway and reconstruction of retaining walls and patio areas. The property is located at 150 Gates Avenue, is designated as Tax Block 13502, Lot 7, and is located in the R-4 Zone.  The project will require bulk variance relief for a bulk variance for lot coverage of 36.4% where 25% is permitted and 34.4%. The property is significantly undersized, having only 74% of the required lot area (14,833 sf where 20,000 sf is required in the zone). If the property were conforming in lot area, the proposed coverage would be much closer to conforming (27% where 25% is permitted).  With the exception of the aforementioned variances, the Applicants believe that no other variance, waiver or exception is required in order to grant the approvals requested. However, if the Board of Adjustment directs that additional variance(s), waiver(s) or exception(s) is/are needed, the Applicants may seek the same in accordance with such direction.  A copy of the proposed plans and application are on file with the Secretary to the Board of Adjustment and are open for inspection during regular business hours at the office of said Secretary, which is located at 915 Valley Road, Gillette, New Jersey 07933.  The application will be considered by the Long Hill Township Board of Adjustment on Tuesday, March 3, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. at the Long Hill Township Municipal Building, 915 Valley Road, Gillette, New Jersey 07933. A hearing will be held by the Board at that time during which members of the public will be heard on the matter.    Antonio and Ana Maio /s/  Dated:February 12, 2026   Submitted by:   Frederick B.
