of the preliminary plat shall be null and void.
[Amended 5-9-1990 by Ord. No. 5-1990]
Duplicate application for approval shall be made in writing to the Borough Clerk, accompanied by a fee as provided in Chapter

[Added 5-15-1996 by Ord. No. 6-1996]
Upon the filing of an application for the final approval of a major subdivision or the filing of final plat for a major subdivision, the applicant shall pay to the Borough of North Haledon a fee as hereinafter provided for in Chapter
275, Fees.
The original cloth tracing and seven black-on-white
prints of the plat shall accompany the application.
The plat shall not differ substantially from
the preliminary plat as approved.
The Planning Board shall take action in regard
to a final plat within 45 days of submission or within such further
time as the subdivider may agree to. No final plat shall be deemed
submitted unless it shows or is accompanied by all items called for
by this chapter. The Planning Board, after hearing, may approve the
plat or may disapprove such plat. If the Planning Board disapproves
any plat, the findings and reasons for such disapproval shall be stated
upon the records of the Planning Board, and the subdivider shall be
given a copy. If the Planning Board requires any substantial amendment
in any item shown on or accompanying the final plat, an amended plat
shall be submitted and proceeded upon as in the case of the original
plat. If the Planning Board approves the final plat, a notation to
that effect shall be made on each plat and shall be signed by the
Chairperson and Secretary of the Planning Board.
If any person shall be aggrieved by the action
of the Planning Board, appeal in writing to the Borough Council may
be taken within 10 days after the date of action by the Planning Board.
Any plat which requires County Planning Board
approval pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:27-12 shall be forwarded to the County Planning Board for its
action prior to final approval by the Borough Planning Board.
Upon final approval, copies of the final plat
shall be filed as follows:
A. One copy to the Planning Board (permanent file).
B. One copy to the Planning Board Clerk.
C. One copy to the County Planning Board.
D. One copy to the Tax Assessor.
E. One copy to the applicant.
F. One copy to the Borough Engineer.
G. One copy to the Superintendent of Roads.
Unless the final approved plat is filed with
the Passaic County Register of Deeds within 90 days from date of approval,
such approval shall expire. The Borough Council, for good cause shown,
may extend the time for plat filing for a period not to exceed 90
days.
Before any such subdivision is approved, the
Planning Board shall require the applicant to submit proof that no
taxes or assessment for local improvements are due or delinquent on
the property for which the application is made.
