B.
Exemption. One single-family dwelling upon a lot or
one two-family dwelling upon a lot is exempt from site plan review.
Development of one single-family dwelling and one two-family dwelling
upon the same lot or of multiple two-family dwellings upon the same
lot, if permitted, requires site plan review.
[Amended 7-23-2002 by Ord. No. 2002-49]

for the timing of development in stages.

Editor's Note: Former § 425-46, Site Plan Review Advisory
Board, as amended, was repealed 7-28-2009 by Ord. No. 2009-52.
A.
Where off-tract water, sewer, drainage and street
improvements are necessitated by a proposed development, the Planning
Board may, as a condition of approval, require that the cost of the
off-tract improvement be:
B.
If the Planning Board determines that properties outside
a proposed development will benefit from the required off-tract improvements,
the Board shall send to the governing body a list of the required
off-tract improvements and request advice as to the procedure for
installation. The Board shall act within 120 days if no determination
is received from the governing body.
C.
The governing body shall advise the Planning Board
within 90 days that the improvements shall be installed under one
of the following:
(1)
As a general improvement with the costs borne at public
expense, including a contribution from the developer;
(2)
As a local improvement with the costs assessed against
the properties directly benefited, including a contribution from the
developer; or
(3)
As a direct cost to the developer under a formula
for partial reimbursement.
D.
If the governing body determines that the improvements
shall be installed as a general improvement, the Board shall approve
the estimate by which the total cost exceeds the total amount of benefit
to all the properties, including the development property, and the
developer shall be liable to the City for such excess.
E.
If the governing body determines that the improvements
shall be installed as a local improvement, the Board shall estimate
the difference between the total cost and the total amount of benefit
to the subject properties, including the development property, and
the developer shall be liable for such difference as well as for the
amount assessed to the development property.
F.
If the governing body determines that the improvements
shall be installed as a direct cost to the developer, the Board shall
estimate the total cost and the portion attributable to the development
property. The developer shall be reimbursed by the City for the costs
not attributable directly to the development property. Such reimbursements
shall be made if, as and when assessments against other properties
benefiting are received by the City. The assessment against the development
property shall be marked paid and satisfied in consideration of the
improvements installed solely by the developer.
G.
The governing body shall adopt an ordinance authorizing
any assessments as provided by law.
A.
Where the Master Plan or Official Map provides for
the reservation of designated streets, public drainageways, flood
control basins or public areas within a proposed development, the
Planning Board may require, before approving a subdivision or site
plan, that such street, way, basin or area be shown on the final plat.
B.
The developer may deed the designated area to the
City with the proviso that the land be used only for the designated
purpose at the appropriate future time and, in the event that a subsequent
revision of the Master Plan or Official Map shall deem the area or
purpose void, that the land be returned to the developer.
C.
The Planning Board may reserve such land for a period
of one year after final approval and so advise the governing body.
If the governing body has not moved within said year to purchase or
condemn according to law, the developer may apply to use the land
in accordance with the applicable development regulations and procedures.
D.
These provisions shall not apply to the streets, ways,
basins or areas necessitated by the development itself and required
for final approval.
A.
A corporation or partnership applying for approval
to develop land into six or more lots or applying for a variance to
construct a multiple dwelling of 25 or more units or applying for
approval of a site for commercial use shall list the names and addresses
of all stockholders or individual partners owning at least 10% of
its stock or having a least a ten-percent interest in the partnership.
B.
The requirement of Subsection A shall be followed by every corporate stockholder or partner until the names and addresses of the noncorporate stockholders and individual partners, excluding the ten-percent ownership criterion, have been listed.
C.
No board or other municipal body shall approve a corporation
or partnership development application which does not comply with
this section.
D.
Any corporation or partnership which conceals this
information shall be subject to a fine of $1,000 to $10,000, which
fine shall be recovered in any court of record in a summary manner
pursuant to law.
If the literal enforcement of a provision of
this chapter is impractical or will exact undue hardship because of
the peculiar conditions of the land, the Planning Board shall have
the power to grant such exception from the requirement as may be reasonable
and within the general purpose and intent of the provisions for preliminary
or minor subdivision approval or for preliminary site plan approval.
The Planning Board shall have the power to approve
or deny conditional uses or site plans simultaneously with review
for subdivision approval without the developer being required to make
further application to the Planning Board or the Planning Board being
required to hold further hearings. The longest time period for action
by the Planning Board shall apply. Whenever approval of a conditional
use is requested, notice of the hearing on the plat shall include
reference to the request for such conditional use.

require and shall accept, in accordance with the standards in this
section and the regulations contained in N.J.S.A. 40:55D-33, as amended,
the furnishing of performance guarantees and provision for maintenance

by resolution of City Council shall be used verbatim.
