If the subdivision is classified as a minor subdivision and
requires no variances or waivers, and no cause is found for review
by the entire Board or for unfavorable action upon the subdivision,
such finding shall be reported to the Board by the administrative
officer. The Borough Planner and Borough Engineer shall review the
application and make reasonable conditions. The administrative officer
shall then forward the reviewed application as revised to the Board.
In such event, the Board is hereby empowered, as provided for in N.J.S.A.
40:55D-47, to waive the requirements for full notice and hearing,
and thereupon, such finding shall be deemed to be a favorable approval
by a vote of the Board; no further approval shall be required, and
the plat shall be signed by the Chairperson of the Board and the Board
Secretary and returned to the developer within 45 days of the date
of submission of a completed application. Should the Board deny the
application, the applicant may appeal that decision to the Board in
a noticed public hearing.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General
Provisions, Art. II)]
A. Approval of a minor subdivision shall expire 190 days from the date
of Borough approval unless, within such period, a plat in conformity
with such approval and the provisions of the Map Filing Law, N.J.S.A.
46:26B-1 et seq., or a deed clearly describing the approved minor
subdivision is filed by the developer with the county recording officer,
the Borough Engineer and the Borough Tax Assessor. Any such plat or
deed accepted for such filing shall have been signed by the Chairperson
and Secretary of the Planning Board.
B. The developer shall furnish the Borough Engineer a filed map, showing
the date of filing and the county filing information, and an electronic
copy in a form acceptable to the Borough Engineer.
The zoning requirements and general terms and conditions, whether
conditional or otherwise, upon which minor subdivision approval is
granted shall not be changed for a period of two years after the date
of minor subdivision approval, provided that the approved minor subdivision
shall have been duly recorded as provided in this Part 2.
