ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER'S COMMENTS

ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER BRYANT VANDERGHEYNST OBJECTOR FOR BALTUSROL GOLF CLUB IN 2005

Majority of the Municipalities throughout the State of New Jersey and throughout the Country Heavily Regulate Development in Steep Slopes. In fact the regulations have actually intensified in recent years even with the implementation of more stringent storm water management controls and slow standards. Even the State of New Jersey now Prohibits Development of Slopes greater then 20% in Highland Areas. The obvious reasons are that structural storm water management measures and slow erosion measures are not always adequate and responsible low impact development is now understood to be the best preventive and protective measure. The low impact development which is identified in RSIS and is emphasized in RSIS list of 9 low impact techniques. They are 9 nonstructural storm water management strategies that must be incorporated into site design to the MAXIMUM extent practicable.
To protect areas that provide water quality benefits or areas particularly susceptible to erosion and sediments loss and once again it is not a fluke that Municipalities throughout the State and the Country Regulate Developments in these Areas. Construction or development on Steep Slopes can lead to increased erosion, sedimentation of downstream branch resources, degradation of surface water quality, land slides and slope failures and these are all extremely valid reasons for their protection. In addition many Agencies protect Steep Slopes for their aesthetic benefits and for wildlife habitat benefits that they can provide.
Minimizing Land Disturbance begins during the Project Planning Phases by fitting the Development into the Terrains as opposed to Changing the Terrains (Slopes) to fit the Development.
ON PROPOSED PROJECT OF K & K and ZYGMUNT WILF:
The Slope Disturbances Proposed, the Rock Removal Proposed and the extent of Retaining Walls Required to Construct this Project that this Development does not fit into the Terrain. It is much too large for the Property and it Epitomizes the Concept of Changing the Terrain to fit into the Development.
By allowing the applicant to disturb 7 times the permissible Disturbance Level for the 25% and higher grade Steep Slopes is in direct conflict with the goals of STEEP SLOPES ORDINANCE. Board must adhere and enforce the ordinance requirements for STEEP SLOPES there by protecting their sensitive areas and preserving the Trees situated on these slopes.

PLAINTIFF:
Proposed Development by K & K and Zygmunt Wilf is facing the NATIONAL MONUMENT “BALTUSROL GOLF CLUB”. This Golf Club organizes Mega World Events like PGA 2005 held in Aug. 2005 and U.S. Open Championship. If it is allowed this UGLY MASSIVE ALL MASONARY STRUCTURE WILL DAMAGE OUR NATION’S PRESTIGE IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE WORLD and may get us the Top Slot of “Corrupt Democracy in the World”

Marc Marshall Former Springfield Planning Board Member:
“There are certain Areas that we just can not develop in this kind manner. This is one of them. Recognize that we are playing with disaster.”
