Pompton Lakes Zoning Board delays ProPrintrax variance after certification shortfall

The Pompton Lakes Zoning Board of Adjustment postponed consideration of application BOA23-07 (ProPrintrax) to its next meeting on June 25 after the applicant said not enough board members were certified to vote.

At the May 28 meeting the applicant told the board, “You need 5 affirmative votes,” and said that although seven members were present, only five had signed the required certifications, leaving the board without the full eligible panel to proceed. Board members acknowledged the certification shortfall and agreed to carry the application to the fourth Tuesday in June.

Board members asked staff to ensure the applicant’s materials and any engineering summaries are circulated to members before the next hearing. The transcript record shows the applicant asked the board to decide how to proceed and the board confirmed the matter would be placed on the June 25 agenda.

The postponement means the board will revisit BOA23-07 at the next regular meeting; no hearing or vote on the merits took place on May 28.
