The following are subject to the regulations
of this chapter:
A.
Any subdivision which involves the division of a parcel
of land into two or more parcels.
B.
Any such division of a parcel of land which involves
the installation of streets and/or alleys not to be dedicated for
acceptance by the municipality.
C.
Any realignment of two or more parcels involving a
resubdivision or replatting or an existing approved plan even though
such plan was recorded prior to the enactment of this chapter.
A.
The Borough Council shall designate an inspector to
enforce the provisions of this chapter and the accompanying design
standards and improvement specifications.
B.
Inspection of actual construction under an approved
subdivision plan shall be the sole responsibility of the municipality,
which may undertake any reasonable measure to provide an adequate
inspection of all projects.
A building permit may be issued only upon approval
of a preliminary plan or, in those instances where a preliminary plan
is not required, approval of a final plan. No lot in a subdivision
may be sold unless a final plan has been approved and recorded.
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 the Borough of Paulsboro.
Any action taken by the Borough Council and the Planning Board under
the terms of this chapter shall give primary consideration in the
above-mentioned matters and to the welfare of the entire community.
However, if the subdivider 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 Planning Board and the Borough Council
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.
