A. 
The right to farm all land is ordained to be a permitted use which can be pursued in any zoning district that permits general purpose agriculture in the Township of Alloway, subject only to the restrictions and regulations for poultry and turkey farms and the keeping of farm animals, manure or fertilizer as specified elsewhere in the Alloway Land Use Ordinance, and subject to Township health and sanitary codes. The right to farm as applied in this section includes the following:
(1) 
Use of irrigation pumps.
(2) 
Aerial and ground seeding and spraying of land and crops.
(3) 
Application of fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides.
(4) 
Use of tractors and other power-driven wheeled and tracked vehicles.

B. 
All the foregoing activities are permitted for the purpose of producing from the land agriculture products such as vegetables, grains, hay, fruit, fibers, wood, shrubs, flowers, seeds and for raising livestock. All the foregoing farming activities must be conducted in accordance with generally accepted agriculture practices and may occur at any time, including Sundays and holidays. These activities also may occur at any hour of the day or night. The noises, odors and fumes which are reasonable and necessary to farming are included as inherent parts of the right to farm. The use of carbide guns, however, is found not to be reasonable and necessary to farming and is hereby prohibited except between the hours of 1/2 hour after sunrise and 1/2 hour before sunset.
C. 
It is expressly found that whatever nuisance may be caused to others by the permitted farm uses and activities so conducted is more than offset by the benefits from farming to the neighborhood and community and to society in general; by the preservation of open space, the beauty of the countryside and clean air; and by the preservation and continuance of farming operations in Alloway Township and in New Jersey as a source of agriculture products for this and future generations.
In HR Districts, where acceptable sewer and water service is provided, projects involving garden apartments or townhouses (hereafter referred to as "apartments") may be permitted on single land parcels of two or more acres in size only after site plan review and approval by the Planning Board.

If the applicant concurs in the recommendations made by the Review Committee and agrees to incorporate the Committee's suggestions, he may alter his plans accordingly, after which a zoning permit may be issued immediately, provided that other ordinance requirements have been complied with. If, for some reason, the applicant declines to incorporate the suggestions of the Historic District Review Committee in his proposal, the Zoning Officer shall deny the permit and the applicant may immediately appeal the action to the Board of Adjustment.

[1]
Editor’s Note: Former Article XIII, Zoning Board of Adjustment, consisting of §§ 75-71 through 75-78, as amended, was repealed 5-20-2010 by Ord. No. 443 (Rev.), which ordinance also provided for the abolishment of the Zoning Board of Adjustment, the combining of the functions of the Planning and Zoning Boards and the deletion of any other reference to the “Zoning Board of Adjustment” in the Township Code inconsistent with said ordinance. See also § 75-6J.
D. 
Standards. In reviewing plans, the Historic District Review Committee shall give consideration to:
(1) 
The historical and architectural value of a structure and its relationship to historical values existing in the surrounding area.
(2) 
The general compatibility of new construction proposed with historical values of the surrounding area.
(3) 
The general compatibility of exterior design, building component arrangement, suitability of building materials and decorative features as they conform to the surroundings and to historical building design, standards, methods of construction and siting arrangements.
E. 
Building demolition or removal. It shall be a function of the Historical District Review Committee to consider the appropriationess and ways and means of avoiding removal or demolition of historically important buildings or structures located within the Historic Preservation District. Application for demolition or removal of buildings erected prior to 1875 shall be referred to the Historic District Review Committee and the Committee shall have a period of up to 90 days to confer with the applicant and interested public or quasi-public agencies, as well as other interested officials or individuals to conduct a cooperative effort to ascertain how the Township may preserve the buildings and/or premises. The Committee is encouraged to carry out negotiations with either public or private agencies or groups that might lead to feasible plans for preservation of structures where moving or demolition thereof would constitute a great loss to the public or to the Township. In the event a building having historical significance is to be moved to another site within the Township, plans for relocation shall be reviewed by the Committee and suggestions or comments made for its protection during the moving process and for resiting at its new location. Such recommendations shall be made in writing and shall either be discussed with the applicant or forwarded to him prior to the issuance of a moving permit. Relocated buildings shall comply with area, width and yard requirements of the zone to which the building is moved.
