[Added 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 1131]
A.
Purpose. The purpose of the payment-in-lieu ordinance is to establish
a mechanism to provide funding for the construction of affordable
housing within the Township of Little Falls for zone districts where
the Zoning Ordinance[1] permits that affordable housing obligations may be satisfied
through a payment in lieu of constructing the units on site. The mechanism
contained within this section is intended to require the developer
or redeveloper of a project to provide a fee in the amount of the
actual cost of constructing or subsidizing the construction of his
or her prorated share of affordable housing units within Little Falls
Township, including hard and soft costs.
B.
Payments in lieu of constructing affordable housing in inclusionary
zones.
(1)
Payments in lieu of the construction of affordable housing shall
be based upon the prorated share of the actual cost to the Township
to create or subsidize the creation of an affordable housing unit
within the Township, using any of the eligible options for the provision
of affordable housing permitted under applicable affordable housing
regulations, provided said options are also consistent with the zoning
regulations of the Township of Little Falls and/or with an applicable
adopted redevelopment plan. Both hard and soft costs shall be included
in the calculation. The payment amount shall be calculated by the
applicant based upon a proportionate share of the total project cost
embodied in one or more pro formas for the construction of affordable
housing elsewhere within Little Falls, if such pro formas have been
prepared and are on file in the office of the Township Clerk, or shall
be negotiated between the Township and the developer or redeveloper
as the case may be. In no case shall the negotiated amount be less
than the actual cost to the Township to create or subsidize the creation
of the amount of affordable housing units required for the project
under consideration, including both hard and soft costs.
(2)
In negotiating the amount of a payment-in-lieu for a fraction of
a unit, the Township may require the preparation of a pro forma by
the developer or redeveloper, to be reviewed by an independent third-party
entity at the expense of the developer or redeveloper, to confirm
that the amount of the payment-in-lieu accurately reflects the realistic
costs of providing an affordable unit in Little Falls. Fractional
units must be calculated out to include a minimum of two decimal places.
(3)
This section is applicable to applications for development proposed
to be located within inclusionary zones located within Little Falls
Township that permit the applicant to utilize a payment-in-lieu-of-construction
option to satisfy the affordable housing obligation for his or her
project.
(4)
Fifty percent of the payment-in-lieu fee shall be paid prior to the
issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the first housing unit
within the market rate development for which payment in lieu of construction
is required. The remaining 50% of the payment-in-lieu fee shall be
paid in full prior to the point at which 50% of the housing units
in the market rate housing development have received a certificate
of occupancy. In cases where only one market rate single-family unit
is proposed, the applicant shall pay 100% of the payment-in-lieu-of-construction
fee prior to the issuance of the final certificate of occupancy.
