A plan to build a 10-unit complex there was approved in 2024, but construction never began. Now, the owner is proposing modifications to the site plan and must receive a second approval. The original plan consisted of 10 units within a four-story building, however the application will now be modified in favor of \u201cnew architectural plans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_PublicNoticeDetailsBody1_lblContentText\">The new structure would stand 40-feet, 9-inches, which is below the allowable height of 41 feet in the underlying zone. Variance relief for height, however, may still be required since an elevator shaft will extend to a height of 54-feet, 9-inches. The developer is also seeking a variance or waiver allowing for a depressed curb of 22 feet in width, where 16 feet is normally permitted \u2013 similar to the relief that had been granted under the 2024 application.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16273\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shorebeat.com\/lavallette-seaside\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/1511_lot.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"The property at 1511 Ocean Terrace, Seaside Heights, N.J.
