[Amended 1-25-1994 by Ord. No. 1689; 1-13-2004 by Ord. No.
2-2004; 6-10-2008 by Ord. No. 2008-13]
A. Background and intent.
(1) The intent of this section of the Land Development
Ordinance is to implement the Downtown Element of the Haddonfield
Master Plan.
(2) The downtown area, as described in the Downtown Element,
comprises a large area that includes most of Haddon Avenue, the PATCO
parking lots, Tanner Street, Ellis and Centre Streets, as well as
the real center of town, Kings Highway.
(3) The downtown districts are intended to create mixed-use,
walkable places that are an extension of the traditional pattern of
downtown Haddonfield. This character is part of what makes downtown
Haddonfield unique, and is vital to its future.
(4) These downtown districts follow on the recognition,
described in the Downtown Element, that downtown Haddonfield comprises
several separate and quite distinct "character areas": Kings Highway,
Tanner Street, Allen Avenue/Wilkins Avenue, North Haddon Avenue (east
and west sides), south of Kings, Ellis Triangle and South Haddon Avenue.
Each of these areas has its own land use and urban design profile,
which is described by a set of goals that establish the intent for
that area. These goals are incorporated into the downtown districts.
(5) Where a conflict exists, the provisions of this section
shall supersede those of the current Land Development Ordinance.
B. Organization of this section.
(1) The Downtown District section of the Land Development
Ordinance regulates development in two ways, by zoning district and
by building type.
(2) Zoning districts set out general urban design requirements that pertain to the character of an area. These include uses, setbacks, building heights, design character/appearance, and the location of parking. Downtown districts (§
135-38D) are:
(a)
D1: Downtown 1 (Neighborhood Transition).
(b)
D2: Downtown 2 (Community-Serving Blocks).
(c)
D3: Downtown 3 (General Urban).
(d)
D4 Downtown 4 (Kings Highway – Core).
[Amended 11-7-2012 by Ord. No. 2012-16]
(e)
D4-A Downtown 4A (Non-Core).
[Added 11-7-2012 by Ord. No. 2012-16]
(3) In each downtown district, certain building types are allowed and certain types are prohibited, based on the character of that district. The requirements for building types (§
135-38E) set out more specific requirements that are related to the kind of building that is being built. Together, the requirements for districts and building types will produce the complex, varied mix of buildings and streetscapes that characterize downtown Haddonfield.
(4) One of the distinguishing features of the downtown
zoning districts are the sizes, types and placement of buildings.
This section describes characteristic building uses, setbacks, heights,
and lot coverages for each of the four downtown districts in Figure
D, General Zoning District Requirements. In cases of apparent ambiguity or conflict between the general zoning district requirements and the building bulk requirements, the more detailed provisions found in Subsection (f), Building bulk requirements, in §
135-38E(6) through
(20) and summarized in Figure E, Bulk Requirements, shall take precedence.
(5) The organization of this section as applied to an individual site is summarized in Figure B, How to Use This Section, in §
135-38B. Definitions of terms are provided in §
135-10.
Figure B: How to Use This Section
|
C. General standards for downtown districts. The following
general standards must be followed for any new construction or building
addition in each downtown district.
(1) Historic District. The provisions of the Article
VI, §§
135-42 through 135-62, shall apply to all lots within the Downtown Zoning District that are also within the Historic District described in those sections. All development and permit applications, and all work that will impact the exterior features of any property within the Historic District, shall be referred to the Historic Preservation Commission and Planning Board as currently required. All such applications and exterior work shall require a certificate of appropriateness, as currently required, in addition to meeting the requirements of the Downtown Zoning District.
(2) Bulk.
(a)
New structures shall be designed in sections
between 25 feet and 35 feet in width along the street frontage. Sections
can be expressed through architecturally articulated bays, variations
in setback, window patterns, changes in material, and other similarly
effective techniques. Minor variations may be considered to adjust
for lot frontage and lot geometry.
(b)
Cornice lines, eave lines, and rooflines shall
vary between building sections in height or setback from the street.
(c)
The maximum length of a horizontal facade or
side wall shall be 100 feet. Setbacks, open space passages between
buildings, recessed courtyards or similarly significant architectural
breaks shall be used to reduce the length of continuous horizontal
facades or side walls.
(d)
The maximum length of any roofline shall be
60 feet. In cases where individual buildings are longer than 60 feet,
the third-floor roofline shall be set back a minimum of 15 feet for
25 feet to 35 feet of the facade length beyond the sixty-foot roofline.
(e)
Three-story structures shall differentiate between
the ground level and upper levels using setbacks, changes in materials,
bands or other linear ornamentation.
Figure C: Illustration of Bulk Standards
(New Urban Construction)
|
(3) Height of buildings.
(a)
Building heights shall be measured in both feet
and stories.
(b)
When measuring by stories, height of buildings
shall be counted in half-stories, to account for buildings with visible
basements or space under pitched roofs. The ground story of a building
is the first floor of a building that is level to or elevated above
grade. The upper stories of a building begin at the first floor above
the ground story. Building types constructed with pitched roofs with
dormers may have an additional story, if located within the roof structure.
(c)
When measuring by feet, height of buildings
shall be measured to both the eave line and roofline, for buildings
with pitched roofs, and to the roofline for all other buildings.
(d)
For sloped sites, the grade level shall be measured
from the lowest point on any side of the property line that includes
and entrance to a dwelling unit, retail space, or office space.
(e)
Ornamental tower elements associated with religious
institutions are exempt from maximum height requirements.
(4) Doors and windows.
(a)
All buildings shall include front doors and
windows facing the street. No blank walls are permitted facing the
street at the ground floor.
(b)
The minimum area of window and door openings
on any wall shall be 30% of the area of the wall. For commercial uses
or walls facing streets, the glazed area must be greater than 70%
with a maximum sill height of two feet six inches above sidewalk grade.
(c)
Side walls that face public ways, and are set
back a minimum of five feet from a lot line, must have windows and
may have doors.
(d)
Every street-facing ground-level business and
residence must have a separate entry. Live-work buildings must have
one entrance to the street that serves both living and working components
of the structure. Corner buildings and end units are encouraged to
place primary entrances on secondary streets or at the corner.
(5) Driveways.
(a)
Parking shall be accessed by rear alleys or
rear lanes where available. Parking pads and garages that must be
accessed from the front of a lot shall be located at the rear of the
lot.
(b)
Driveway width at the access point shall be
no wider than 10 feet between the front lot line and the front facade
of the building.
(c)
Shared driveways between two properties are
permitted and strongly encouraged, to minimize curb cuts and impervious
surfaces. This shall be accomplished by initiating an irrevocable
offer of cross-easement between the abutting properties. The owners
of the involved properties shall submit, with their application for
special exception, a site plan showing joint use and location of the
shared driveway.
(6) Porches, stoops, and other protrusions. Porches, stoops, and other protrusions shall be permitted to encroach in to a front, side, or rear setback if they meet the provisions in §
135-21, Yard exceptions.
(7) Frontage. In Downtown Zones D1, D2, and D3, at least
50% of the building's front facade at ground level must be located
along the front setback line. Buildings in D4 must have a frontage
percentage of at least 75%.
(8) Entrances.
(a)
The main entrance of every building must directly
face a street or a civic space, except for courtyard buildings, where
main entrances can face the courtyard, and side yard buildings, where
they can face the side yard. The residential or office component of
a flex building with ground-floor retail frontage may be located to
the rear or side of the building if all setback requirements are followed.
(b)
Every street-facing ground-level business and residence should have a separate entry. See §
135-38C(4), Doors and windows.
(9) Ground floor elevation. For buildings with retail
uses, the ground floor should be at sidewalk level. If the ground
floor use is not retail, the floor level may be elevated if access
is not restricted according to ADA requirements.
(10)
Story heights.
(a)
The ground floor floor-to-floor height of any
building with commercial or mixed uses shall be no more than 18 feet
tall. Buildings that are primarily residential or live-work shall
have a ground floor floor-to-floor height of no more than 14 feet
tall.
(b)
Each story above the ground story must have
a floor-to-floor height of eight feet to 12 feet. Top stories must
have a floor-to-floor height of eight feet to 12 feet tall as measured
from the finished floor level to the bottom of the structure above.
(11)
Single-story buildings. Ground-story residential
use in one-story buildings is limited to the single-family detached
house and cottage house types, as well as accessory building or structures
where residential use is permitted.
(12)
HVAC.
(a)
HVAC equipment shall not be visible from streets
or public parks.
(b)
No HVAC equipment shall be placed above the
roofline.
(13)
Parking.
(a)
Residential units in mixed-use developments
shall each require 1.5 parking spaces.
(b)
Nonresidential uses shall require three parking
spaces per 1,000 square feet of leasable space.
(c)
The parking spaces required may be reduced when two or more establishments share the same parking area, whether on the same lot or abutting lots. Shared parking or off-site parking strategies are described in §
135-86 of the Land Development Ordinance.
(d)
In Downtown Zones D2, D3, and D4, parking spaces
and garages shall be located at the rear of buildings only. Garages
shall be located at the rear of Buildings in D1, but uncovered surface
parking is permitted to occupy the side yard in this district only.
(e)
Parking spaces should incorporate screening
features such as landscaping and fencing.
D. General zoning district requirements. Specific requirements vary according to building type; see Subsection (f) of §
135-38E(6) through
(20). In cases of apparent ambiguity or conflict between other provisions of this section, the building bulk requirements of Subsection (f) in §
135-38E(6) through
(20) shall take precedence.
(1) D1: Downtown District 1; Neighborhood Transition.
(a)
District goals: accommodate a mix of uses that
support downtown commercial activity, add to the community's tax ratables
and provide diverse residential choices including affordable housing.

Special provisions for civic buildings.
[1]
Intent. The civic buildings of a town identify
its symbolic and ceremonial heart. Allowing civic buildings in downtown
Haddonfield is also necessary to create gathering spaces and focal
points of the community.
[2]
Bulk standards. In order to provide greater
flexibility and to allow more iconic architecture, civic buildings
have more relaxed bulk standards than other building types. These
bulk standards are as follows:
[a] Footprint. There shall be no minimum
footprint. With the downtown district's overall building width restrictions,
maximum footprint of civic buildings is limited to 10,000 square feet.
[b] Height. Overall height of the main
structure is limited to 36 feet. Approved ornamentation may rise higher
if intended for house of worship or municipal uses.
[c] Setbacks. Civic building setbacks
are at a minimum of 25 feet for front facades and 15 feet for sides.
The resulting open space should remain public where possible.
[3]
Design features. Iconic buildings with high-quality
materials and prominent settings project a sense of permanence and
human scale that expresses the dignity and importance of institutions.
[a] Exterior details. Exterior details
are to be of appropriate scale and material to match or complement
the character of downtown Haddonfield.
[b] Location of entrances. Main entrances
are preferred along axial terminations of streets and walkways, or
directly connected to any adjoining civic spaces.
[4]
Retail functions. Retail is permitted only as
an accessory use to civic uses.
(8) Cottage house: CH.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description: a variant of the single-family
detached house, with a lower allowable height and smaller side and
front setbacks. It is intended for smaller lots.
(c)
Local examples. Cottage houses are currently
seen along Wilkins Avenue and Ellis Street, as well as in many of
the residential neighborhoods surrounding downtown Haddonfield.
(d)
Character examples. Photographs show general
principles only and may not meet all standards.

Flex building: FB.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description: a multistory building with multiple
dwellings or offices in upper stories and retail or office uses on
the ground floor. Residential uses may not be placed on the ground
floor. Often, these buildings have common walls on one or both side
lot lines. Flex buildings along King's Highway must have retail uses
on the ground floor.
(c)
Local examples. These buildings are very common
throughout downtown Haddonfield and can be seen in various configurations.
They are most often found in groups along King's Highway and Haddon
Avenue, but are also scattered throughout the Borough on other primary
and secondary streets.
(d)
Character examples. Photographs show general

Liner building: LB.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description:
[1]
A building or portion of a building constructed
in front of a large-volume use such as a parking garage, cinema, supermarket,
etc. The building is configured to conceal large expanses of blank
wall area or parking and to face the street space with a facade that
has ample doors and windows opening onto the sidewalk.
[2]
Eighty feet north of the center line of Euclid
Avenue, they can rise to a height of five stories or a maximum of
55 feet for any portions within 80 feet of the Eastern PATCO right-of-way.
A one-hundred-foot setback from Haddon Avenue and adherence to all
other general standards for zoning districts and building types must
be observed.
(c)
Local examples. Liner buildings are not currently
found in Haddonfield, although similar structures have been built
as part of Collingswood's lumberyard development.
(d)
Character examples. Photographs show general
principles only and may not meet all standards.

Podium building: PB.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description:
[1]
A variant of a liner building in which a large-volume
use structure (such as parking or a cinema) is not only lined with
street-related development but also capped with upper levels of habitable
space. The upper levels, those above the third floor, shall be set
back at least 15 feet from the third floor.
[2]
Eighty feet north of the center line of Euclid
Avenue, they can rise to a height of five stories or a maximum of
55 feet for any portions within 80 feet of the Eastern PATCO right-of-way.
A one-hundred-foot setback from Haddon Avenue and adherence to all
other general standards for downtown zoning districts and building
types must be observed.
(c)
Local examples. This building is not currently
found in Haddonfield, although similar structures have been built
in Downtown Collingswood and elsewhere in the region.

Sideyard building: SB.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description: a detached building that abuts
one side lot line, with the primary yard to the other side. The sideyard
building (often called a Charleston House, after the city in which
it is most common) is a building type appropriate for lots in those
blocks for which street frontage is valuable but interior block space
is ample. Lots in such blocks tend to be narrow and deep. The sideyard
building type is correspondingly narrow and deep, and is often developed
in series, so that rooms face south onto porches, and porches on to
side yards whose privacy is maintained by a blank north wall on the
adjacent house.
(c)
Local examples. Sideyard buildings have been
used elsewhere in the region to develop narrower lots with greater
yard privacy. They may not be found in Haddonfield today as built
for this purpose, but they are similar to older homes that are not
directly oriented to their primary street or where a corner building
is oriented differently than the rest of the block.
(d)
Character examples. Photographs show general
principles only and may not meet all standards.
(f)

This parking standard for residential development is based on the need to provide flexibility with respect to permitted changes of use, both residential and nonresidential, for this structure type within the context of infill development and redevelopment in the downtown districts. This standard is consistent with the Master Plan for the downtown area and with the off-street parking standards in § 135-86. This standard shall be effective if a de minimus exception, waiver or special area standard is granted pursuant to the Residential Site Improvement Standards at N.J.A.C. 5:21-3; otherwise the standards provided in Table 4.4 at N.J.A.C. 5:21-4.14 shall be effective.

Special corner building: SC.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description:
[1]
A variant of the flex building for corner lots
on major streets. Front and side setbacks are set to zero to allow
for "holding the corner." This building is encouraged to have its
main entrance at the corner, if it has only one, or it should have
one on each street-fronting side if there are two.
[2]
The allowable height for this building type
will be 40 feet at strategically chosen lots. These are the corners
of King's Highway and Chestnut, Tanner, and Haddon.
[3]
Special corner buildings along King's Highway
must have retail uses on the ground floor.
(c)
Local examples. Many of Haddonfield's corners
have conditions similar to these. New construction of this type may
be even more iconic, making selected corners very unique places to
emphasize the character of the Downtown District.
(d)
Character examples. Photographs show general
principles only and may not meet all standards.

Accessory building or structure: ACS.
(a)
Typical condition/siting example, for illustrative
purposes only:
(b)
Description: a building or structure that requires
a footing and that is customarily associated with and is subordinate
and incidental to a principal building or structure, and that is located
on the same tax lot in the rear yard. This includes but is not limited
to accessory dwelling units, garages, carports, doghouses, sheds,
freestanding air-conditioning units, nonportable swimming pools, tennis
courts and other similar structures. Any accessory building or structure
attached to the principal building or structure shall be considered
a part of that principal building or structure.
(c)
Local examples. Many Haddonfield lots contain
accessory structures behind their main buildings.
(d)
Character examples. Photographs show general
principles only and may not meet all standards.
(f)
Special provisions for accessory structures.
[1]
Permitted locations. Building types that can
be occupied by one or more dwelling units are permitted one accessory
structure on the lot in addition to the main building. This shall
include live-work, townhouse, cottage house, sideyard, and single-family
detached building types. Twins may share an accessory structure party
wall.
[2]
Bulk standards. Additional bulk standards are
as follows:
[a] Footprint. The building coverage
for a detached accessory structure may not be larger than the building
coverage of the principal structure. The combined building coverage
for all detached accessory structures may not exceed the percentage
of total site area determined by the lot's downtown zone.
[b] Height. The maximum height for
a detached accessory structure is 18 feet or the cornice line of the
main building, whichever is lower.
[3]
Site design standards.
[a] Exterior details. Exterior finish
materials, roof pitch, trim, eaves, window orientation and dimension
shall be the same or visually match the principal structure.
[b] Location of entrances. One main
entrance may be placed on the alley or access road that the accessory
structure is located on. If the size, orientation, or design of the
structure does not allow this, the entrance to the dwelling unit may
be located on an alternate facade. This would apply to units that
do not have occupied space on the ground, and are accessed by an entrance
from a balcony or deck.
[4]
Parking. Any accessory building or structure
attached to the principal building or structure shall be considered
part of that principal building or structure for the calculation of
all parking requirements.
[5]
Special regulatory standards. Where an accessory
structure is created and the principal use is residential, the construction
shall comply fully with the requirements of the New Jersey Residential
Site Improvement Standards (RSIS, N.J.A.C. 5:21-3 et seq.). All standards
of that code will apply to the creation of an accessory structure
in a new building or an addition.
