Calling all mobile coffee shops, food trucks, flea marketeers, etc to highly traveled Rt 209 for your next investment opportunity. Set up a drive-thru coffee trailer to capture the daily commuters in the morning! Prime location! Low Investment! Keeping it mobile allows for more opportunities with the land located in a flood plain. Neither of those uses are defined in the zoning ordinance, so it would fall under Article III, section A.19. This article requires that the use application be forwarded to the zoning hearing board for consideration. While the zoning hearing board has the sole authority to rule on the matter, it seems like these uses dont require structures and would have less impact in the respect Permitted uses I have attached the zoning ordinance. Permitted uses for this district can be found in Article XI, subsection A. Please note #1, which states that residential uses are ONLY permitted if they are accessory to a commercial use (one of the uses listed in nos 2 through 7). So in order for any residential use to be placed there, it would require a use variance from the zoning hearing board. Property is located in the special flood hazard area (floodplain), zone AE. Only certain uses are permitted within the special flood hazard area. A floodplain variance would likely be required before ANY structure is constructed here. This variance would be heard by Borough Council. Floodplain this property is located within the special flood hazard area (floodplain) As stated above, this would require a variance from Borough Council before any type of structure could be placed here. Assuming a variance is grantedthen the following: Any residential structure would certainly need to be elevated 1.5 feet above the Base Flood elevation. This would require an elevation certificate from a licensed surveyor. Any non-residential structure would need to be dry-floodproofed to 1.5 feet above the base flood elevation. Again, this would require an elevation certificate from a licensed surveyor. Also the floodproofing design would need to be sealed by a licensed engineer.
