The applicant shall submit to the Clerk, at the time of submission of an application for site plan approval, payment of the fee provided in §
244-50.
The key map shall show the entire project and
its relation to the surrounding areas, roads and watercourses.
Upon receipt of an application for a site plan approval, together with the required supporting documents and payment of the prescribed fee, the Clerk shall forthwith submit to the Secretary who shall submit one copy of the application and supporting documentation each to the City Engineer and to the Attorney for the Planning Board for a report thereon to the Planning Board. These reports shall be submitted to the Planning Board at least two days prior to the meeting of the Planning Board at which the application will be considered. These reports shall comment on the completeness of the application in conformity with this chapter and whether the application is in compliance with all requirements of applicable laws and ordinances. The Engineer shall also advise as to the likelihood of off-tract improvements being required and, if such shall be the case, shall advise the City Commission which shall then act pursuant to §
244-42. The Secretary shall also set down the application on the agenda of the Planning Board meeting next following 14 days from the date of submission of the complete application and shall advise the applicant of such date. In the event that the Secretary determines that a literal compliance with the time requirements of this section, in the case of a site plan of 10 or fewer acres, will cause the application to be considered by the Planning Board not within the 45 days of the submission of the application, the Secretary shall so advise the Planning Board at its next meeting, and the Planning Board shall schedule a special meeting for consideration of the application within the forty-five-day period.
The applicant, where required pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:27-6.6, shall comply with the provisions of §
244-10, as the same shall apply to a site plan.
Preliminary approval of a site plan shall have the same effect upon the applicant as enumerated in §
244-21, as the same shall apply to a site plan, provided that the engineering review fee shall be as set forth in §
244-50.
The final plat, titled as such, shall be submitted
in the form of one linen or Mylar, two cloth and nine black-on-white
paper prints on sheets of uniform size of one of four standard sizes
[namely, 30 inches by 42 inches, 24 inches by 36 inches, 15 inches
by 21 inches or 8 1/2 inches by 13 inches], provided that when
more than one sheet is required, an index sheet of the same dimensions
shall be filed showing the entire site plan on one sheet, and each
separate sheet shall show references to the adjoining sheets, at a
scale of not less than one inch equals 200 feet. The final plat shall
show the same information required for preliminary approval in addition
to the following:
A. Plans and profiles of all storm and sanitary sewers
and water mains as approved by the City Engineer.
B. Cross section, profiles and grades of all streets
as approved by the City Engineer.
C. Any changes between the information set forth in the
preliminary plat and that which has actually been effected.
Before granting preliminary approval of an application for a site plan, the Planning Board shall require the applicant to deposit with the city the inspection fees provided in §
244-50 to compensate the City Engineer in performing an inspection of the sidewalk, curb, street and storm drainage improvements and other appropriate improvements. After approval and after the applicant has initiated construction thereof, the City Engineer shall make the inspections and submit written reports with respect to the results of such inspections to both the Secretary of the Planning Board and the applicant. Additionally, the City Engineer shall advise the Secretary and the applicant of his inspection fees. Thereafter the inspection fees shall be paid from the deposit. If the applicant should decide to permanently discontinue work on the site plan in question before its completion, he may make written application to the Planning Board for the refund of the unencumbered portion of the deposit. Submission of this application shall constitute a waiver of all rights which may have accrued to him with respect to the site plan covered by that application.
