[Amended 5-18-1982 by Ord. No. 82-2]
If, before favorable referral and final approval
has been obtained, any person transfers or sells or agrees to sell,
as owner or agent, any land which forms a part of a subdivision on
which, by ordinance, the approving authority is required to act, such
person shall be subject to a penalty of not more than $1,000 per lot.
A.
B.
In any such action the transferee, purchaser or grantee
shall be entitled to a lien upon the portion of the land from which
the subdivision was made that remains in the possession of the subdivider
or his assigns or successors to secure the return of any deposit made
or purchase price paid and also a reasonable search fee, survey expense
and title closing expense, if any. Any such action must be brought
within two years after the date of the recording of the instrument
of transfer, sale or conveyance of said land or within six years if
unrecorded.
[Amended 5-18-1982 by Ord. No. 82-2]
These rules, regulations and standards shall
be considered the minimum requirements for the protection of the public
health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Gibbsboro. Any action
taken by the approving authority under the terms of this chapter shall
give primary consideration to the above-mentioned matters and to the
welfare of the entire community. However, if the developer or his
agent can clearly demonstrate that, because of peculiar conditions
pertaining to his land, the literal enforcement of one or more of
these regulations is impracticable or will exact undue hardship, the
approving authority may permit such variance or variances as may be
reasonable and within the general purpose and intent of the rules,
regulations and standards established by this chapter.
