Mahwah January 26, 2011 THE VILLADOM TIMES IV • Page 9 Township council names three new streets by Frank J. McMahon The Mahwah Council has named three new township streets that are part of new housing developments. One of the developments is the subdivision of a 7.7-acre site located between Skytop Drive and Wyckoff Avenue on the border between Mahwah and Ramsey. That area is known as the Kayal subdivision after the owners of the property, George and Deborah Kayal, whose home is located on Wyckoff Avenue north of Young World Day School, and is on one of the lots included in the subdivision. The other development, the Chestnut Trees subdivision, is the 10-lot subdivision on a 10.9-acre property on the south side of Masonicus Road about 200 feet east of Airmont Avenue. Two lots in the Kayal subdivision front on Wyckoff Avenue, but six of the eight lots will front on a new culde-sac. The township council has approved the name Kayal Court for that cul-de-sac. The cul-de-sac splits the property that originally comprised four residential lots, most of which were heavily wooded. Access to the subdivision from Skytop Drive is located just south of the elbow turn of that road. The planning board approved the subdivision in May 2010. The application was changed several times to meet various board members’ and neighbors’ concerns, particularly those pertaining to water pressure. The board voted unanimously to approve the subdivision after learning that the homes on these lots would be more than 100 feet apart and would therefore meet the 500 gallon per minute pressure requirement according to the state’s residential site improvement standards. In addition, the Kayals agreed to increase the size of the water line to be installed on the site from six to eight inches and to extend it to Wyckoff Avenue where it can be connected to the township’s water system in the future when Mahwah extends its sewer and water lines to the Wyckoff border. The Chestnut Trees subdivision will have a double cul-de-sac consisting of two roads that will provide frontage to nine of the lots. The tenth lot contains one of two existing houses on the site and has frontage on Masonicus Road. The township council approved the name Krazinski Lane for the cul-de-sac road leading from Masonicus Road, and the name Tree Farm Lane for the cul-de-sac road heading west from Krazinski Lane. The property is currently being used as a tree farm and the Ramsey Brook runs along the eastern portion of the site. The approved plans call for the removal of 178 of the 587 trees on the property which will be replaced according to the township’s standard replacement formula of one tree for every four removed. Thirty-one shade trees will be planted. The existing buildings on the property include the Knight-Goetschius House and barn, both of which date to 1861. The Mahwah Historic Preservation Commission considers these remnants of Mahwah’s past agricultural and rural character. Plans call for the house to be razed to make way for the development. The barn was scheduled for demolition as part of a subdivision of the property, but Douglas and Marlene Meyer, a Waldwick couple who learned about the potential demolition of the barn in a previous story in Villadom TIMES, agreed to dismantle and reassemble the barn on a farm in the town of Hewitt. The barn will be used to house horses used for therapeutic horseback riding for individuals with special needs.
