Jersey City, NJ assigned this issue to Zoning-Warren

Now they are installing light poles along the fence all over the property. The picture is from 3-24-2023. Notice they are working on the wiring to the newly installed pole. Wires running along the fence. Now I know you need a permit for electrical work like that and there is none. Amazing.

Thank you for reporting an issue to the City of Jersey City.

WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM THE BUILDING DEPT.

Here is a close up picture from 3-29-2023. They are welding together some sort of piece for a truck trailer. In the make shift wood and plastic tarp “building”…dangerous. It is amazing how they could just start all of this without permits. A real eye sore at the rear entrance to Liberty State Park. I wonder how the owners of the soon to be 50 million dollar movie studio across the road on the old Liberty Storage and Liberty Diner property feel about the truck repair business. Thank you for looking into it.

Here is a picture of the side of the tarp and wood building. Notice the circled group of wires stung behind the trailer and building.

INSPECTION 2/9/24

THE REAL ADDRESS IS 14 BURMA ROAD. THE TAX PLATE DESCRIBES THIS PROPERTY AS A PARKING LOT. IT IS LOCATED IN THE LIBERTY HARBOR REDEVELOPMENT PLAN IN THE INDUSTRIAL ZONE. THIS COMPLAINT HAS BEEN SENT OVER TO THE QUALITY OF LIFE DEPT. FOR THEIR DIRECTOR TO SEE IF TRAILER TRUCKS AND LIBERTY CRUISE PASSENGERS CAN PARK THERE.

AT 1 BURMA ROAD THE SUNHING AND REYNOLD LOGISTIC INC COMPANIES OWN THIS PROPERTY. THEIR BUSINESS IS LOGISTICS AND TRUCK SERVICES.

14-16 Burma Road the Liberty Diner and the Storage lots were sold and were going to be a movie studio. I think those plans are no more. They did demolish the diner and storage buildings and soon as they did a For Lease sign went up. Yes, it is now filled with all kinds of vehicles trucks, trailers, buses, etc. And yes, they put up a big sign for Bayonne Cruise Line parking. Funny I think they are the same people who had all of those types of vehicles down on 321 rt 440 near Danforth at the old Delta gas station that people have been complaining about for years. They all left about the same time the 14 – 16 Burma Rd lot started to fill up with trucks and buses. The 2 office trailers that the trucking firm worked out of are gone too. Thank goodness!

As far a 1 Burma Road which is across the street. I don’t know how they are allowed to operate. It is like they popped up over night when I first did this issue back in March 2023. They built a shack with 2 x 4’s, plywood, and plastic tarps and do all kinds of truck work in them. I have seen them welding pieces of truck trailer frames in that tarp building. Dangerous. And look around the lot along the fence at all of the old tires a mess. Thank you.

Question: Shouldn’t places like that have some kind of covering along the entire fence to keep them from public view? Especially those two on Burma which are at the back entrance to LSP. Also the mess of a property at the end of Linden and rt 185 the car exporter. What a mess.

Can’t you force the junk yard / car exporter located at NJ-185 & Linden Ave E to put up a screening fence? Although route 185 is the shortest highway in New Jersey it is still a highway. Also those hundreds of junk cars are stored way to close to one another on the lot. It is a dangerous situation like that ship fire a few months ago which this place probably ships cars in.

CHAPTER 43. JUNKYARDS ADJACENT TO THE INTERSTATE AND NATIONAL HIGHWAY SYSTEMS

Screen junkyards lawfully in existence on the effective date of the Junkyard Control Act (July 24, 1970) which are located within 1,000 feet of, and are visible from, any interstate or national highway system highway, and which are located outside of zoned and unzoned industrials areas, and to acquire such lands, or interests in lands, as may be necessary to provide adequate screening of such junkyards;

PS- on that 1 Burma Road since March 2023 they added a whole other shack next to the original one.

Thank you.
