liability insurance, municipal taxes and maintenance of land and any
facilities that may be erected on any land deeded to the open space
organization and shall hold the Township harmless from any liability.
(4)
Any assessment levied by the open space organization
may become a lien on the private properties in the development. The
duly created open space organization shall be allowed to adjust the
assessment to meet changing needs, and any deeded lands may be sold,
donated or in any other way conveyed to the Township for public purposes
only.
(5)
The open space organization initially created by the
developer shall clearly describe in its bylaws the rights and obligations
of any homeowner and tenants in the planned development, along with
the covenant and model deeds and the articles of incorporation of
the association, prior to the granting of final approval by the Township.
(6)
Part of the development proposals submitted to and
approved by the Township shall be provisions to ensure that control
of the open space organization will be transferred to the individual
lot owners in the development based on a percentage of the dwelling
units sold and/or occupied, together with assurances in the bylaws

for all lands to which it holds title.
D.
Should the proposed development consist of a number
of stages, the Planning Board may require that acreage proportionate
in size to the stage being considered for final approval be set aside
simultaneously with the granting of final approval for that particular
stage, even though these lands may be located in a different section
of the overall development.
A.
Purpose. The purpose of this section is to provide
a method of developing land in certain districts of the Township so
that desirable open spaces, conservation area, floodplains, recreation
areas and other environmentally sensitive lands can be set aside and
so that a variety of affordable housing types may be produced by permitting
planned unit developments.
B.

use at the discretion of the Planning Board in accordance with the
following standards:
(1)
All planned unit developments shall be connected to
an approved and functioning central water and sanitary sewage treatment
system.
(2)
The minimum project size, open space and maximum density
provisions for planned unit developments within any district shall
be as specified below.
(3)
The minimum requirement for open space size is achieved by a proposed development and the location, type, design, layout, maintenance, ownership and control of such open spaces comply with the minimum standards of § 110-44 of this chapter.
(4)
Whenever possible, all dwelling units shall be arranged
into cluster and shall front on culs-de-sac and loop streets and be
so designed as to discourage through vehicular traffic movements within
clusters of residential dwelling units.
(5)
Only the rear lot lines of any proposed building lot,
whether for residential or other purposes, shall abut the lot lines
of the parcel originally proposed for development.
(6)
All utility installations shall be underground.
(7)
Provisions to accommodate Mt. Laurel housing have
been complied with.
C.
Required findings by the Planning Board. Prior to
granting approval of any planned residential development, the Planning
Board must find that:
(1)
Sanitary sewer collection and treatment as well as
potable water facilities are available to and are to be provided to
the proposed development.
(2)
The proposal will produce economy in layout and design
of the public service infrastructure.
(3)
The proposal is consistent with and will not create
hazards relating to traffic patterns already established by surrounding
development. A traffic report may be required by the Planning Board.
(4)
Open space to be created by the proposal must be suitable
for both passive and/or active recreation uses and/or valuable for
the protection of the natural environment and/or necessary for a public
or quasi-public purpose, and the open space standards of this article
shall have been achieved.
(5)
There is reasonable assurance that the improvements
and maintenance of the open space can be secured by the methods and
arrangements proposed by the development.
(6)
The proposal is consistent with the intent and purposes
of the Master Plan and N.J.S.A. 40:55D-45.
(7)
The proposed will not create a negative fiscal impact
on the Township's services.
(8)
The proposal is consistent with and is in conformance
with the provisions for Mt. Laurel housing.
D.
Minimum tract size and maximum density. The minimum
tract size necessary to qualify shall be 100 acres. The maximum density
of residential building lots for cluster development shall be four
units per acre.
E.
Area, yard and setback requirements. The minimum building lot requirements for cluster development in each of the specified districts shall be as specified below in Subsection I.
F.
Permitted uses shall be as follows:
(1)
Residential units, such as but not limited to single-family
detached, twin, attached, quadraplexes and garden apartments, except
mid-rise and high-rise structures.
G.
H.
Staging. As a condition to preliminary approval of
a planned unit development, the Planning Board may permit the implementation
of the plan in whole, in sections or in stages, consisting of one
or more sections or stages, under the sequence of actions determined
as a part of the development plan. Such sections or stages shall be:
(1)
Substantially and functionally self-contained and
self-sustaining with regard to access, parking, utilities, open spaces
and similar physical features and shall be capable of substantial
occupancy, operation and maintenance upon completion of construction
and development.
(2)
Properly related to other services of the community
as a whole and to those facilities and services yet to be provided
in the full execution and implementation of the development plan.
(3)
Provided with such temporary or permanent transitional
features, buffers or protective areas as the Planning Board may require
which will prevent damage or detriment to any completed section or
stage, to other sections or stages and to adjoining properties not
in the development plan. Plans and specifications of such sections
or stages are to be filed with the Planning Board and are to be of
sufficient detail and at such scale as to fully demonstrate the following:
(a)
The arrangement and site locations of all structures,
primary and accessory land uses, parking, landscaping, public and
private utilities and service facilities and land ownership conditions.
(b)
Estimates of the economic base of the section
or sections, supported by such evidence as the estimated cost and
market values of structures and land improvement increase of taxable
values, costs of maintenance and services to be borne by public and
private agencies, potential rental scale costs of utility installation,
the financial ability of the developer to complete the plan and such
other financial considerations as the Planning Board shall deem applicable.
(c)
Estimates of its population characteristics,
such as the size and composition of future population in terms of
probable family sizes of the several dwelling unit types; their need
for public services and protection, for recreational facilities and
for commercial and professional services; anticipated rental sales;
and related considerations.
(d)
Such further reasonable evidence and facts that
the Planning Board may require in order to determine that the objectives
and standards set forth herein are met.
(4)
Upon finding that the plan and specifications for
the proposed development of the section or sections conform to the
above conditions, the Planning Board shall so inform the administrative
officers as are charged with the issuance of permits for the construction
of utilities or structures that, upon presentation of requisite working
drawings and specifications, such permit may be issued. Upon substantial
completion of any section or stage, which shall include all performance
bonds, covenants and similar instruments to assure such completion,
and before proceeding with the review and approval of additional sections
or stages, the Planning Board may require a report and review of the
status, character and conditions of other previously completed sections
or stages with regard to their compliance with the plans, specifications
and estimates which formed the basis for its action and approval.
Upon finding that such compliance has occurred, the Board shall initiate
proceedings for the review of the new section or stage.
(5)
As a further condition for approval of later sections
or stages, the Board may require or permit adjustments or modifications
in the conditions established in the approved development plan to
compensate for differences between the estimates of record on previously
approved and completed sections or stages as required and the actual
conditions prevailing upon their completion. In this regard, consideration
may be given the balance of land uses established consistent with
the conditions of the development plan and the extent of variation
from the social and economic estimates upon which previous approval
may have been based.
