    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.

  • The Jordan Valley Is Waiting for Zionist Action
    The Jordan Valley Is Waiting for Zionist Action by Maj. Gen. (res.) Gershon Hacohen BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 1,291, September 16, 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Beyond its unquestionable vitality for Israel’s security, the Jordan Valley in its full geographical scope can accommodate millions of Israelis and national infrastructure that cannot be compressed into the coastal plain. If PM Netanyahu’s declaration of sovereignty is not immediately borne out by a surge of building and focused governmental support, it will sputter and die. PM Netanyahu’s promise to apply sovereignty to the Jordan Valley is worthy of praise. The reasons for doing so were already evident to PM Levi Eshkol in the immediate wake of the 1967 the Six-Day War, and were fully fleshed out in the Allon Plan. As the plan stated: “The eastern border of the state of Israel must be the Jordan River and a line that crosses the Dead Sea in the middle…. We must add to the country—as an inseparable part of its sovereignty—a strip approximately 10-15 kilometers wide, along the Jordan Valley.” The plan was presented to the government headed by Eshkol, who, with his Mapai mindset, chose to introduce it without putting it to a vote. Typically for those days, the plan moved immediately to the implementation stage, and a settlement infrastructure was built that has existed ever since. In line with the plan, the Allon Road was paved and the Jordan Valley communities were built along Road 90 and the Allon Road. In the Knesset debate on the Oslo Interim Agreement in October 1995, PM Rabin, about a month before his assassination, outlined his position and stated: “The security border of the State of Israel will be located in the Jordan Valley, in the broadest meaning of that term.” The notion of applying sovereignty to the Jordan Valley has always enjoyed a broad national consensus.

    International Court of Justice Advisory Opinion Proceedings On Legal Consequences of the Construction of a Wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territory Palestine Written Statement (30 January 2004) And Oral Pleading (23 February 2004) Preface 1. In October of 2003, increasing concern about the construction by Israel, the occupying Power, of a Wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, in departure from the Armistice Line of 1949 (the Green Line) and deep into Palestinian territory, brought the issue to the forefront of attention and debate at the United Nations. The Wall, as it has been built by the occupying Power, has been rapidly expanding as a regime composed of a complex physical structure as well as practical, administrative and other measures, involving, inter alia, the confiscation of land, the destruction of property and countless other violations of international law and the human rights of the civilian population. Israel’s continued and aggressive construction of the Wall prompted Palestine, the Arab Group, the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) and the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) to convey letters to the President of the United Nations Security Council in October of 2003, requesting an urgent meeting of the Council to consider the grave violations and breaches of international law being committed by Israel. 2. The Security Council convened to deliberate the matter on 14 October 2003. A draft resolution was presented to the Council, which would have simply reaffirmed, inter alia, the principle of the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by force and would have decided that the “construction by Israel, the occupying Power, of a wall in the Occupied Territories departing from the armistice line of 1949 is illegal under relevant provisions of international law and must be ceased and reversed”.

  • MONMOUTH COUNTY Local Concept Development Study for Monmouth County Route 537 Borough of Freehold and Township of Freehold, Monmouth County, NJ
    MONMOUTH COUNTY Local Concept Development Study for Monmouth County Route 537 Borough of Freehold and Township of Freehold, Monmouth County, NJ PROJECT INFORMATION Monmouth County is conducting a study for operational and safety improvements to Monmouth County Route 537. The project study area includes a 2.8 mile section (MP 48.85 to MP 51.65) from a point just west of Gravel Hill Road in Freehold Township, to a point just east of New Jersey Route 33 Business in Freehold Borough. CR 537 is a major east-west transportation corridor serving regional travel needs between Burlington, Ocean, and Monmouth Counties. The roadway serves as a connector between several regional routes, namely U.S. Route 9, Route 33 Freeway, Route 33 Business, and Routes 34, 79, and I-195. The corridor has several substandard design elements, traffic congestion issues, and traffic movement capacity issues for which conceptual solutions will be developed to improve safety and reduce congestion while still taking into account practical measures to avoid, minimize, or mitigate potential impacts to the built and natural environment. The Project Background The Monmouth County Route 537 corridor has traffic operational deficiencies, safety deficiencies, and contains numerous substandard design elements, based on the roadway classification and required design speed as per AASHTO and MUTCD design guidelines including: • Lack of shoulders along the entire length. • Substandard auxiliary lane widths along exterior lanes. • Substandard vertical stopping sight distance at two locations. • Few auxiliary lanes, deceleration lanes or shoulders for turning movements at intersections as well as into various business/shopping complexes. • Substandard roadway and lane widths over the Route 33 Freeway.
