The nj permit for flood hazard area verification was approved on 155 00:20:32,033 --> 00:20:32,033 august 29th, 2022. Let's see what else. We've done. Various easements and other things in 156 00:20:43,877 --> 00:20:43,877 order to. Get our plans approved, which are being reviewed by mr. Darcy's office. 157 00:20:53,554 --> 00:20:53,554 revised plans. We've had comments and so did mark herman, your engineer. And let's see 158 00:21:01,027 --> 00:21:01,027 for that. We got the cross easement approved on the november on october. Sorry, 159 00:21:17,978 --> 00:21:17,978 november 11th, 2025. We got the municipal services agreement approved on on december 15th, 160 00:21:28,122 --> 00:21:28,122 2025. We got the drainage easement for the open space lot approved on october 29th, 2025. 161 00:21:37,398 --> 00:21:37,398 we got the driveway easement because if you recall on this one there, the driveways 162 00:21:45,005 --> 00:21:45,005 crossed into the common area, and that was a condition of the resolution drawn by miss casey 163 00:21:50,410 --> 00:21:50,410 that was approved on july 9th, 2025 open space dedication. There's open space lands. We 164 00:21:58,618 --> 00:21:58,618 submitted our environmental audit was approved by miss wasikowski. We have to clean up 165 00:22:07,661 --> 00:22:07,661 some garbage, which we agreed to do. We completed the construction sequence agreement, 166 00:22:12,866 --> 00:22:12,866 the affordable housing agreement. The deed restriction for affordable housing was done 167 00:22:18,772 --> 00:22:18,772 today. Was approved today. I did a contract for a temporary construction access easement 168 00:22:28,682 --> 00:22:28,682 for your public works. That's the offsite sewer that's being reviewed by mr. Herman and miss. 169 00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:37,190 mrs. Quiroga. A temporary construction access agreement between montgomery and the ems, 170 00:22:44,364 --> 00:22:44,364 the first aid squad, which is finally signed. Let's see what else we have. And we sent in 171 00:22:57,344 --> 00:22:57,344 our homeowners association papers last week through mark herman wanted a certain 172 00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:07,120 restriction on the stormwater. Stormwater facilities. We said that in he's reviewing that and 173 00:23:19,700 --> 00:23:19,700 that's about it on this one here. The long pause was because for the off site 174 00:23:26,907 --> 00:23:26,907 easement that we had to get from richard meier for the sewer took for a long time, 175 00:23:33,748 --> 00:23:33,748 because you had to get an appraisal and you went back and forth and back and forth with 176 00:23:38,385 --> 00:23:38,385 mr. Myers attorney. And that was only done on may. The easement was dated on may 25th 177 00:23:46,994 --> 00:23:46,994 at 2025, and that prevented us from going on to his property and doing soil testing, in 178 00:23:53,533 --> 00:23:53,533 which delay the sewer, which we now have. We do have the sewer. Bids in approved by mr. Herman, 179 00:24:04,678 --> 00:24:04,678 your engineer. I drew a contract for that. I had to draw another contract for that. 180 00:24:11,118 --> 00:24:11,118 he's. He and miss quiroga is are doing for your public works access. Because we have to put 181 00:24:19,426 --> 00:24:19,426 the sewer line on that and the also the agreement for sewer capacity for the. Pipe plant. 182 00:24:34,541 --> 00:24:34,541 so that's what we've done. We need a little bit more time, probably within a year to 183 00:24:39,613 --> 00:24:39,613 complete everything. Again, the big hold up on this one was getting mr. Meyer to agree to 184 00:24:47,921 --> 00:24:47,921 the easement finally, by the township committee. And and you're you're comfortable that 185 00:24:54,094 --> 00:24:54,094 a year is you're comfortable with the year extension. You feel you feel comfortable with 186 00:24:59,567 --> 00:24:59,567 that. That should do it. Okay. Okay. As you can see we did a lot of work on this one. Oh 187 00:25:07,574 --> 00:25:07,574 yeah. Look this is a this is a this is a pretty this is an involved. The offsite sewer. 188 00:25:14,915 --> 00:25:14,915 yeah. Across the fox brook go under the fox brook. And you know it took a long time. Yep. 189 00:25:22,189 --> 00:25:22,189 okay. Given that we do not have public comment, we'll go right to board, question discussions. 190 00:25:28,228 --> 00:25:28,228 any questions? Yeah, I have a question. Mr. Saltzman, can you divulge what was involved in 191 00:25:38,238 --> 00:25:38,238 the agreement with ems? I'm sorry, what was involved in the agreement with ems? You made 192 00:25:48,449 --> 00:25:48,449 reference to an agreement with ems. Oh, we're we're not giving them a line, but we're giving 193 00:25:57,357 --> 00:25:57,357 them a lateral up to the foundation so that the only thing they have to do is get a 194 00:26:03,931 --> 00:26:03,931 plumber to hook up to the lateral so they can get rid of their septic system. Okay. 195 00:26:10,003 --> 00:26:10,003 thank you. And then what we're doing is we're originally going to only do a lateral a line, 196 00:26:18,579 --> 00:26:18,579 put a sewer line. And they were going to put a lateral in but they cried poverty. And so 197 00:26:25,085 --> 00:26:25,085 we're putting the lateral into the foundation. So all they have to do is get a plumber to 198 00:26:30,891 --> 00:26:30,891 hook it up and to whatever facility they want to hook it up to. Thank you. Any other 199 00:26:39,833 --> 00:26:39,833 questions? No. Okay then. Oops. Sorry. Then let's do I have a motion to approve the the 200 00:26:50,310 --> 00:26:50,310 extension request.

So if anyone from the public does come, they will hear things that are coming up. 209 00:28:12,059 --> 00:28:12,059 so it's again, just another way of letting the public know about potential things coming 210 00:28:17,731 --> 00:28:17,731 in front of us. So we have two future agenda items. One is the 23 orchard road redevelopment 211 00:28:25,306 --> 00:28:25,306 plan, and the other is the amended affordable housing plan element.
