It shall be unlawful for any owner or lessee of any real property in the Borough of South River to lay out any driveway to be used for the purpose of entering or leaving the premises owned or leased, which exceeds 30 feet in width measured along the curbline; provided, however, that where the property fronts on more than one street, the owner or lessee may use and maintain one driveway on each street contiguous to the property for every 100 lineal feet of frontage or fraction thereof along that street, driveways to be separated by at least five lineal feet measured along the curbline, and provided further that where the property fronts on only one street, two driveways separated by not less than five lineal feet measured along the curbline may be maintained for the first 200 lineal feet of frontage or fraction thereof and one driveway may be maintained for each additional 100 lineal feet of frontage or fraction thereof.
The maintenance of existing driveways which do not conform to the provisions of § 289-13 of this article may be continued; provided, however, that if and when existing buildings or structures are altered, rearranged, reconstructed or repaired, or additional buildings added, or other improvements made to the property wherein the cost of any and all of such alterations, rearrangements, reconstruction, additions and other improvements exceeds 50% of the assessed value of existing improvements on the property, then the driveways shall be reconstructed so as to conform to § 289-13 of this article.
Any person violating any of the provisions of this article shall, upon conviction thereof, be subject to the penalties provided in Chapter 1, Article I, General Penalty, in the discretion of the court.
