In order to protect and preserve the road network of the Borough,
ensure the efficient and safe movement of traffic, promote the development
of a well-ordered community, further the objectives of comprehensive
planning and best serve and protect the public health, safety and
general welfare, no public, professional, commercial, industrial or
other nonresidential or nonagricultural or general purpose use and
no multiple-family dwelling use, except for developments consisting
of two-family dwellings and except as otherwise provided in this chapter,
shall be permitted, nor shall any zoning permit be issued or certificate
of occupancy countersigned for such uses, until site plan approval
has been received. Notwithstanding the above-stated requirements,

developed and the use proposed is substantially the same as the use
already existing. If an applicant desires to seek a waiver of the
site plan review requirements as set forth herein, the applicant shall
submit an application requesting such relief to the Planning Board
and pay such application fee as is otherwise required by ordinance.
