Special standards applicable to development of the A1, A2 and A3 Districts
only are set forth in the Chapter
305, Subdivision of Land and Site Plan Review,
§
305-12I, to expedite the production of lower-income housing. These
standards are deemed to be the minimum necessary for public health, safety
and welfare and remove standards which may be desirable to achieve but which
may also be cost-generating to a developer of lower-income housing and thereby
inhibit its production. Any provision of this chapter or any other ordinance
which is in conflict with the affordable housing standards of the Subdivision
and Site Plan Ordinance and which imposes restrictions or limitations not required for
health and safety shall be inapplicable to the A1, A2 and A3 Districts.
Rules and regulations covering the number of affordable dwelling units
required in the affordable housing districts, eligibility standards, definition
of "affordability," relief from requirements, subsidies, convenants and controls
on sales and rentals and foreclosure are specified in the Affordable Housing
Ordinance of the Borough of New Providence.
