The officials and agencies cited in §
11-132B above shall forward their comments and recommendations, in writing, to the Approving Board within 30 days from the receipt of the map.
The Approving Board shall approve, conditionally approve or
deny the final major site plan application within 45 days of the determination
by the Approving Board that the application is complete unless the
Approving Board shall extend the period of time within which the Approving
Board may act. Failure of the Approving Board to act within the time
prescribed shall constitute final major site plan approval, and a
certificate of the Administrative Officer as to the failure of the
Approving Board to act shall be issued on request of the applicant,
and it shall be accepted by the county recording officer for purposes
of filing site plan plats. The Approving Board shall include findings
of fact and conclusion based on the testimony and documentary evidence
submitted and shall reduce this determination to writing in accordance
with law.
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.
The reasons for approval, approval with conditions or disapproval
shall be set forth in the written minutes of the Approving Board,
and the applicant shall be notified, in writing, within 45 days of
said action. A notice of said decision shall be advertised as provided
by this chapter.
For any site plan which requires County Planning Board or other
governmental agency approval, the Approving Board shall condition
its approval upon approval by the County Planning Board or such other
agency. If the Approving Board approves a site plan conditional upon
County Planning Board approval or approval of any other governmental
agency and a substantial change is required in the design, access,
circulation, drainage or improvements, the revised site plan shall
be submitted to the township Approving Board for reapproval.
In the event of a failure to comply with any condition of final
site plan approval, the Construction Official, on his or her own initiative,
may revoke the construction permit or certificate of occupancy, as
the case may be, and seek to enjoin the violation or take such other
steps as permitted by law.
After approval of the preliminary major site plan, copies of
the signed site plan shall be distributed as follows, where appropriate:
C. Zoning Officer/Code Enforcement Officer.
E. Secretary of the Planning Board.
F. Warren County Planning Board.
G. Environmental Commission.
