Variance for 5' 8" Rear Yard (Instead of 25') Sought

According to a legal notice in yesterday's Record, Eugenio Bruni is seeking to subdivide 134 Charlotte Place, currently owned by Joan and Michael Bello, into two lots.  He also is seeking variances for both of the lots.  For one lot, Mr. Bruni wants a "front yard setback of 15.3' where 25' is required and a rear yard of 5.8' where 25' is required."  For the other lot, Mr. Bruni wants "a building height measured from the curb level of 35' where 32' is allowed and a building height measured from finished grade of 31.2' where 30' is allowed.  The Planning Board hearing is Thursday, March 8, 2012 at 7:30 p.m.  This is an excellent opportunity to see the impact eliminating the Board of Adjustment will have on Englewood Cliffs' land use.
