Storage of such vehicles in parking lots of townhouse, apartment or other multifamily developments is prohibited unless the vehicles are either parked in a garage or parked in a designated parking area where the space being used is in addition to the off-street parking spaces required for the dwelling units.

No travel trailer, camper or boat stored in conformance with this section shall remain in such storage for longer than 12 consecutive months.

Any such vehicle stored in accordance with this section shall not be occupied and shall not be provided with utility connections other than for the maintenance of such vehicle.

The purpose of this district is to provide for the development of larger lot, lower-density single-family homes in undeveloped sections of the Borough where the existing scattered homes in these areas are on similar sized or larger lots. The development of larger lot, non-age-restricted single-family homes in the R-6 District is intended to offset the higher density single-family housing opportunities available throughout the Borough and add to the variety of residences in the Borough. The R-6 District is also intended to provide opportunities for age-restricted housing at higher densities. The higher density for age-restricted housing is offset by each home having fewer people than a traditional home and no school children, while the housing type is anticipated as meeting a growing demand.

Permitted principal uses (land and buildings).

Uses enumerated.

Detached single-family dwellings.

Elementary, intermediate and secondary schools.

§ 107-102 Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) Optional Overlay.

[Added 01-25-2005 by Ord. No. 05-04]

General provisions.

Purpose and overview. The purpose of this optional overlay section is to accommodate development and redevelopment of land in the Borough of Glassboro in a manner consistent with the design principles of traditional neighborhoods specific to residential, civic and institutional, and open space uses.

The Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) Overlay Ordinance provides for a flexible, fiscally sustainable form of development that creates a strong sense of place. It is based on an ascending hierarchy of places: street, square, neighborhood and village. It is intended to encourage and support the development of friendly, walkable neighborhoods.

The pedestrian-oriented nature of the district is reinforced by human scaled buildings that relate to the street, provide safe pedestrian access and create a distinct neighborhood identity.

A traditional neighborhood:

Is compact.

Is designed for the human scale.

Provides uses in close proximity to one another within the neighborhood.

Provides a mix of housing styles, types, and sizes to accommodate households of all ages, sizes, and incomes.

[5]

Incorporates a system of relatively narrow, interconnected streets with sidewalks, bikeways, and transit that offer multiple routes for motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists and provides for the connections of those streets to existing and future developments.

[6]

Retains existing buildings with historical features or architectural features that enhance the visual character of the community.

[7]

Incorporates significant environmental features into the design.

[8]

Provides opportunities for a range of residential densities and dwelling types, as well as community and local service facilities and recreational and open space facilities.

[9]

Is consistent with Glassboro's Master Plan.

Applicability and criteria. The TND Ordinance includes an alternative set of standards for development within the Borough of Glassboro:

The TND Overlay District is an optional overlay that may only be used on the noncommercial portions of a tract that is also utilizing the provisions of a Planned Retirement Community (PRC) Overlay District.

The minimum tract size shall be 20 contiguous acres. For the purposes of this chapter, tracts of land that are separated only by a street shall be considered contiguous.

General site requirements.

Density. The TND Overlay may only be used on a site that is also utilizing the provisions of the PRC Overlay District. This section does not change the overall density provisions for the PRC Overlay.

Building types. The allowable mix of building types is specified in the PRC Overlay District. This section does not change the mix. The use of a mix of residential building types is encouraged. The exact mix and location shall be dependent upon the specific site and the internal compatibility with adjacent lots and public rights-of-way.

Block and street design. Streets are to be planned using a grid pattern or loose network forming blocks, thus allowing several routes to any destination. Mid-block pathways should be used when appropriate to allow pedestrians to walk through the long side of a block. The plan, through its design, should seek to minimize vehicular speeds and shortcutting while making walking and cycling safer, easier and more pleasant.

General. Open spaces may be distributed throughout the neighborhood but shall be given prominent sites, to contribute to their sense of place and focus. Neighborhoods should be planned using a quarter-mile radius, providing a five-minute walk from the edge to the center.

TND design standards.

Neighborhood uses. In order to achieve the proximity necessary to make neighborhoods walkable, it is important that a traditional neighborhood development consist of a mix of residential uses, civic or institutional uses, and open space as provided below:

Residential uses. The following residential types may occur anywhere in the traditional neighborhood development. For infill development, the mix of residential uses may be satisfied by existing residential uses adjacent to the traditional neighborhood development.

Single-family detached dwellings;

Single-family attached dwellings, including duplexes and townhomes;

Multifamily dwellings;

Special needs housing, such as assisted living facilities.

Civic or institutional uses.

Municipal offices, fire stations, libraries, museums and galleries, community meeting facilities, post offices, and similar facilities;

Transit shelters;

Places of worship;

Educational facilities.

Open space uses.

Enumeration.

Central square;

Neighborhood park;

Playground.

Open space uses identified below should be incorporated in the traditional neighborhood development as appropriate. Large outdoor recreation areas (passive and active) should be located at the periphery of neighborhoods rather than central locations.

[a]

Environmental corridors including wetlands, floodplains, and greenways;

[b]

Protected natural areas;

[c]

Community parks;

[d]

Streams, ponds, and other water bodies;

[e]

Major stormwater management facilities.

Bulk regulation standards.

Single-family detached and townhouses.

Circulation standards. The circulation system shall allow for different modes of transportation. The circulation system shall provide functional and visual links within the TND, and shall be connected to existing and proposed external development. The circulation system shall provide adequate traffic and parking capacity, provide connected pedestrian and bicycle routes (especially off-street bicycle or multi-use paths or bicycle lanes on the streets), control through traffic, limit lot access to streets of lower traffic volumes, and promote safe and efficient mobility throughout the TND.

Pedestrian circulation. Convenient pedestrian circulation systems that minimize pedestrian/motor vehicle conflicts shall be provided continuously through the TND. All streets, except for alleys, shall be bordered by sidewalks on both sides. The following provisions also apply:

Sidewalks in residential and nonresidential areas. Clear and well-lighted sidewalks, depending on projected pedestrian traffic, shall connect all dwelling entrances to the adjacent public sidewalk.

Disabled accessibility. Sidewalks shall comply with the applicable requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and New Jersey state requirements.

Crosswalks. Intersections of sidewalks with streets shall be designed with clearly defined edges. Crosswalks shall be well lit and clearly marked with contrasting paving materials at the edges or with striping.

Bicycle circulation.

Bicycle circulation shall be accommodated on streets and/or on dedicated bicycle paths. Facilities for bicycle travel may include off-street bicycle paths (generally shared with pedestrians and other nonmotorized users) and separate, striped bicycle lanes on streets.

Bike paths, sidewalks, and benches shall be integrated where possible in all new development. Regarding pedestrian and bicyclist access and safety, refer to the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) Pedestrian Compatible Planning and Design Guidelines, and the NJDOT Bicycle Compatible Roadways and Bikeways. Bicycle racks should be installed where appropriate.

Motor vehicle circulation. Motor vehicle circulation shall be designed to minimize conflicts with pedestrians and bicycles. Traffic calming features may be used to encourage slow traffic speeds.

Street hierarchy. Each street within a TND shall be classified according to RSIS standards (Subchapter 4).

Street layout. The orientation of streets should enhance the visual impact of common open spaces and prominent buildings, create lots that facilitate passive solar design, and optimize street gradients. Vistas should not be terminated by parking lots.

Parking requirements. All Glassboro parking requirements shall be met. Parking areas for shared or community use should be encouraged.

Service access. Access for service vehicles should provide a direct route to service and loading dock areas, while avoiding movement through parking areas wherever possible.

Architectural standards. A variety of architectural features, building materials, and street features is encouraged to give each building, group of buildings, and the neighborhood a distinct character.

Guidelines for new structures.

The TND architectural features, materials, and articulation of a facade of a building shall be continued on all sides visible from a public street or public space/park.

Porches, pent roofs, roof overhangs, hooded front doors or other similar architectural elements shall define the front entrance to all residences.

New structures on opposite sides of the same street should follow similar design guidelines. This provision shall not apply to buildings bordering civic uses.

The use of earth-tone colors, historical colors, or other colors associated with TND building design is required. The painting of structures in bold nontraditional colors, patterns, checks and stripes is not permitted.

[5]

Gable roofs with a minimum pitch of 5/12 are encouraged, and should be provided with eaves. Flat roofs should be avoided on one-story buildings. Two-story or taller buildings should be provided with a traditional cornice treatment. Mansard roofs are generally discouraged. Architectural embellishments that add visual interest to roofs, such as dormers, belvederes, masonry chimneys, cupolas, clock towers, and other similar elements are encouraged.

[6]

All permitted nonresidential buildings shall avoid long, monotonous wall or roof plans by modulating the facade to give the appearance of several buildings. Wall facades exceeding 30 feet in length and oriented towards the public view shall include windows, entrances or similar architectural features appropriately spaced.

[7]

Entrances shall be inviting to pedestrians and, to the fullest extent possible, provide shade and weather protection.

[8]

Fixed or operable fabric awnings are desirable and permitted. Canvas is the preferred material, although other waterproof fabrics may be used. Metal and plastic awnings, including vinyl, are prohibited.

[9]

All equipment providing services to the building, whether roof-mounted or ground-placed, shall be screened by appropriate architectural design and landscaping as appropriate.

[10]

The use of site and street furniture and improvements including benches, tables, trash receptacles, and bike racks, pedestrian walkways, planters and lighting consistent with traditional community character is encouraged.

[11]

Parking lots shall be designed to accommodate and encourage safe and convenient pedestrian movement. Landscaping and buffering should be used abundantly to minimize street view of parking lots. The use of asymmetrical, undulating berms, and reverse parking lot grading is encouraged to further minimize street view of parking lots.

[12]

"Do not enter" and "one-way" signs often confuse the motoring public and add to the clutter of the streetscape. The applicant's engineer shall use them sparingly in accordance with the review engineer's recommendations.

[13]

The exterior building surface including material and color shall include one dominant surface comprising 60% or greater of each building elevation. Dominant exterior materials shall include wood, brick, stone and stucco. Artificial renderings of exterior materials shall be avoided. Dominant facade colors shall be low-reflectance, subtle, neutral, earth-toned, or historical. The use of high-intensity colors, metallic colors and black is prohibited.
