INTRODUCTION A. Introduction The Borough of Montvale is a mature suburban community located in northern Bergen County on the New York State border (see Map 1). The Borough encompasses an area of four (4) square miles and borders Upper Saddle River to the west, Woodcliff Lake and Park Ridge to the south, River Vale to the south and east (all in Bergen County, New Jersey) and the Town of Orangetown (Village of Pearl River) and Town of Ramapo (Village of Chestnut Ridge) to the north in Rockland County, New York State. In the year 2000, the total population of Montvale was 7,034 persons, a slight increase over the 1990 population of 6,946 persons. The Borough’s population was estimated to be 7,306 in 2005. B. Purpose The purpose of the master plan is to provide the Borough of Montvale with a comprehensive guide for the future growth and development of the community. The last full revision to the Montvale Mas- ter Plan occurred in 1997; since then a Reexamination of the Master Plan occurred in 2005. Earlier Master Plans or reexaminations occurred in 1969 and in 1986. This master plan was prepared with guidance of the Montvale Planning Board by the Borough’s planning consultant, Phillips Preiss Shapiro Associates, Inc. (PPSA), a planning and real estate consultant. C. Brief History of Montvale Prior to setting forth the goals and objectives and recommendations for guiding growth and devel- opment for a community for the next 10 to 15 years, the realistic future horizon for a comprehensive master plan, it is useful to understand the appreciate the history of the community, notably the peo- ple, as well as the social, economic and political forces and the major developments that spurred its growth and shaped its physical form. Montvale has a long and varied history, and much of Mont- vale’s physical form is attributable to land use and development decisions made over the past cen- tury and a half. 1. Early History The Pascack Valley, of which Montvale is a part, was originally utilized as hunting and fishing grounds for a number of Native American tribes, referred to as the Lenni-Lenape, prior to the early settlement by Europeans, mostly of Dutch origin, in the early seventeenth century. The first re- corded history of the Lenni-Lenape occupying the Pascack Valley by white settlers to the area, indi- cated that communities were organized around familial associations, dependent mostly on fishing and hunting, and who coexisted peacefully with one another, as well as with the early white settlers. The earliest of such settlers in the Pascack Valley were mostly of Dutch descent. These settlers were farmers who grew crops and raised animals to support their families’ needs.

From 1710 until the last quarter of the 18th century, Montvale was in the north- ern part of New Barbados Township, which encompassed a substantial portion of Bergen County from the Rockland County border in the north to Newark Bay in the south. In 1775, the northern half was broken off and became known as Harrington Township. In 1840 it was subdivided again, to be- come the Township of Washington. The Township of Washington at the time encompassed an area from Rockland County in New York State to the north, Oradell (as we know it today) to the south, and from the Hackensack River on the east to the Saddle River to the west. In 1871 the New Jersey and New York railroad extended the Pascack Valley Line to Montvale, the last station on the line in New Jersey. Up to that point in time, Montvale was predominantly an agri- cultural community.

    STONEFIELD August 4, 2020 Borough of Paramus Planning Board 1 West Jockish Square #1 Paramus, New Jersey 07652 RE: Traffic & Parking Assessment Report Proposed Fueling Service Addition to BJ’s Wholesale Club Block 501, Lot 5 and Block 502, Lots 2.02 & 9 30 NJSH Route 17 North Borough of Paramus, Bergen County, New Jersey SE&D Job No. S-19114 Dear Board Members: Stonefield Engineering and Design, LLC (“Stonefield”) has prepared this analysis to examine the potential traffic and parking impacts of the proposed fuel service addition to the existing BJ’s Wholesale Club on the adjacent roadway network. The subject property is located along NJSH Route 17 North to the south of NJSH Route 4 in the Borough of Paramus, Bergen County, New Jersey. The subject property is designated as Block 501, Lot 5, and Block 502, Lot 9 and 2.02 as depicted on the Borough of Paramus Tax Map. The site has approximately 905 feet of frontage along the NJSH Route 17 North off-ramp to NJSH Route 4. The existing site is currently developed with a BJ’s Wholesale Club. Access is currently provided via one (1) right-turn ingress- only driveway along NJSH Route 17 North, one (1) right-turn ingress-only driveway along South Farview Avenue, and one (1) right-turn egress-only driveway along South Farview Avenue. Under the proposed development program, a fueling station with 10 fueling positions would be constructed in the southerly portion of the existing parking area. The construction of the fueling station would result in a net reduction to the overall parking supply of 103 parking spaces, and 445 parking spaces would be provided for the existing BJ’s Wholesale Club.

    PHASE IA ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT ZABRISKIE-SHEDLER HOUSE AND PROPERTY VILLAGE OF RIDGEWOOD, BERGEN COUNTY NEW JERSEY Prepared for: Connolly & Hickey Historical Architects Prepared by: James Lee, M.A., RPA, Principal Archaeologist Eryn Boyce, M.S., Architectural Historian FEBRUARY 2019 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This report describes the results of an archaeological assessment carried out over the winter of 2018-19 of the Zabriskie-Schedler House and property located at 460 West Saddle River Road in the Village of Ridgewood, Bergen County, New Jersey. This work was carried out by Hunter Research, Inc. under contract to Connolly & Hickey Historical Architects on behalf of the Village of Ridgewood. The primary goal of this assessment was to define areas of likely archaeological sensitivity within the property and to provide recommendations for archaeological resource management procedures in the event of alterations and modifications to the property that may entail ground disturbance. In particular, the potential for Revolutionary War-related archaeology on the property was assessed in light of the active part this area played in that conflict. Although a review of previously identified precontact sites registered with the New Jersey State Museum identi- fied 27 sites within two miles of the subject property, it is assessed as having a low potential to yield significant prehistoric archaeology. The subject property lies just over 1,000 feet from the Saddle River and is upland in character – with no prominent natural features, rock outcrops, or water sources. Given the proximity of the Paramus Reformed Church and crossroads to the subject property, and that the prop- erty was apparently an undeveloped part of the church’s land, it is considered likely that some of these wartime activities extended on to the Zabriskie-Schedler property.

This 7/11/01 issue therefore includes both the correct 3/14/01 announcements and the 7/11/01 announcements. Staff regrets any inconvenience this may have caused our readers. Please be advised that the period for filing an appeal from an action on a permit will run from the actual date of publication.
