The officials and agencies cited in §
11-74B above shall forward their comments and recommendations, in writing, to the Approving Board within 30 days from the receipt of the plat.
[Amended 12-22-2005 by Ord. No. 05-22]
At the time when the Approving Board considers the application and determines that the application is complete and ready for public hearing, the Approving Board shall set a date for the public hearing and notify the applicant of said date. After such notification by the Approving Board, the applicant shall follow the procedures established in this chapter with respect to the notice of hearing. See §
11-34.
The Approving Board may require the filing of an amended application
which shall proceed as in the case of the original application for
development. No additional application fee shall be required. Completeness
review shall be at the discretion of the Approving Board. The time
within which the Approving Board shall review the amended application
and make its determination shall commence as of the date of the filing
of the amended plat. If the applicant fails to submit an amended application
within the original time for review authorized by this chapter, the
Approving Board shall be obligated to act on the original application.
If, at the discretion of the Approving Board, the change or changes
are considered minor in nature, the applicant may be given approval
subject to the submission of an amended plan indicating the changes.
Whenever review or approval of the application by the County
Planning Board is required by N.J.S.A. 40:27-6.3, the Approving Board
shall condition any approval that it grants upon timely receipt of
a favorable report on the application by the County Planning Board
or approval by the County Planning Board by its failure to report
thereon within the required time period.
The Approving Board shall approve, conditionally approve or
deny a minor subdivision within 45 days of the determination of the
Approving Board that the application is complete, unless the applicant
shall extend the period of time within which the Board may act. Failure
of the Approving Board to act within the period of time prescribed
shall constitute minor subdivision approval, and a certificate of
the Secretary as to the failure of the Approving Board to act shall
be issued on request of the applicant; and it shall be sufficient
in lieu of the written endorsement or other evidence of approval herein
required and shall be so accepted by the county recording officer
for purposes of filing subdivision plats.
[Amended 5-14-2007 by Ord. No. 07-07; 7-8-2013 by Ord. No. 13-07]
Any lands, lots or parcels resulting from a minor subdivision
may not be resubmitted as a minor subdivision for an eighty-four-month
period from the date of initial approval as a minor subdivision where
the cumulative total will exceed four lots.
Approval of a minor subdivision shall be deemed to be a final
approval of the subdivision by the Approving Board, provided that
the Board may condition such approval on terms ensuring the provision
of improvements as may be required pursuant to the Municipal Land
Use Law, as amended (N.J.S.A. 40:55D-1 et seq.).
After the approval of a minor subdivision, copies of the signed
plat shall be distributed to the following, where appropriate:
C. Zoning Officer/Code Enforcement Officer.
E. Secretary to the Planning Board.
F. Warren County Planning Board.
G. Soil Conservation District.
