ALL YEAR?

Belmar tries to quietly give D’Jais variance!

The rumors were true after all:

BOROUGH OF BELMAR

The Applicant will ask for waiver of site plan approval but if deemed necessary the Applicant will ask for site plan approval.

    I know people who been waiting for a zoning hearing for 6 months, to repair major storm damage from super storm sandy, how did this nightclub get to the front of the line? How is the unelected board able to make a decision that will effect homes values in belmar for the next 100 years?

    Dont forget rhat they are planning on extending a liquor license across an entire street next 507 to Pied Piper building. I wonder what kind of precedent this is going to have. La Dolce Vita extending to the Pizza/ Food Court place next door , Jacks to the Frankie Feds or Surf Taco. Belmar is getting on a slippery slope.

    Dave, I am interested to hear your thoughts on this issue. Surely you are in favor of free-enterprise and not government intervention to state how property owners can or cannot use their land/business, correct? Less government control, right?

    I wouldn’t care what they did there if it didn’t spill over into the surrounding neighborhood. Problem is that they’ve shown that despite the management’s sincere efforts to prevent it from happening, the neighbors still have to put up with the noise, the public urination and vomiting, and worse. If they could get that under control, then I wouldn’t have any problem. Until then, those problems are an assault on the property rights of the neighbors.

    Ummmm, there is no line for zoning! You must have all your paperwork in order which is NOT easily done without a lawyer. So not to pass judgement but D’Jais is not going to “cheap” out there…sooo, get your ducks in a row and away you’ll go to the FRONT OF THE LINE.
