A.
In accordance with the authority granted it pursuant to N.J.S.A.
40:55D-8 and 53.2 et. seq., the Municipal Council hereby establishes
the fees as set forth in this section as escrow deposit fees governing
the review of applications before the Planning Board, and Zoning Board
of Adjustment. These fees are intended to cover the costs of professional
services including but not limited to planning, engineering, legal,
landscaping, traffic, environmental and other reasonable and necessary
expenses incurred by the approving authority for the review of submitted
materials for specific applications.
B.
An applicant shall deposit with the City an amount of money determined
in accordance with this section and the applicable provisions of N.J.S.A.
40:55D-1 et seq. (1) to pay for the services of professionals employed
by the City or the approving authority to review the application for
development and to review and prepare documents in accordance with
N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53.2; (2) for inspection fees in accordance with N.J.S.A.
40:55D-53; (3) to satisfy the guarantee requirements of N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53;
and (4) for any other purposes permitted under the provisions of N.J.S.A.
40:55D-1 et seq. or other applicable law. The City shall deposit the
money in an escrow account in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53.1.
C.
The Chief Financial Officer of the City shall hold all fees required
for these purposes in escrow. Each applicant shall provide the Chief
Financial Officer with a Federal Tax Identification Number or Federal
Social Security Number. All fees are to be made out to the City of
Plainfield. All deposits in excess of $5,000 shall be held in trust
by the City in an interest bearing account in a banking or savings
and loan institution in New Jersey. This institution shall be insured
by an agency of the federal government. The Chief Financial Officer
shall notify the applicant in writing of the name and address of the
institution or depository in which the deposit is made and the amount
of the deposit. If the amount of interest exceeds $100, the entire
amount shall belong to the applicant and shall be refunded to him/her
by the Chief Financial Officer annually or at the time the deposit
is repaid or applied to the purposes for which it was deposited. The
City may retain for administrative expenses a sum equivalent to no
more than 33 1/3% of that entire amount which shall be in lieu
of all other administrative and custodial expenses.
E.
The chief financial officer of the City shall make all payments to
professionals for fees or charges in connection with services rendered
to the City or the approving authority for review of applications
for development, review and preparation of documents, inspection of
improvements, or other purposes permitted under law. Such fees or
charges shall be based upon a schedule established by resolution of
the approving authority. The application review and inspection charges
shall be limited to professional charges for review of applications,
review and preparation of documents and inspections of developments
under construction and review by outside consultants when an application
is of a nature beyond the scope of the expertise of the professionals
normally utilized by the City. The only costs that shall be added
to any such charges shall be typical out of pocket expenses of any
such professionals or consultants incurred in processing applications
and conducting inspections. The City or approving authority shall
not bill the applicant for any municipal clerical or administrative
functions, overhead expenses, meeting rooms charges, or any other
municipal costs and expenses except as provided for N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53,
nor shall any municipal professional add such charges to any bill.
If the salary, staff support and overhead for a professional are provided
by the City, the charge shall not exceed 200% of the sum of the products
resulting from multiplying (1) the hourly base salary of each of the
professionals, which shall be established annually by ordinance by
(2) the number of hours spent by the respective professional on the
review of the application for development or inspection. For other
professionals such fees and charges shall be at the same rate as all
other work of the same nature performed by the professional for the
municipality when fees are not reimbursed or otherwise imposed on
applicants or developers.
F.
Schedule of required fees for escrow deposits. For deposits required
pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53.2, the amount of the deposit shall
be reasonable in regard to the scale and complexity of the development.
The amount of the initial deposit shall be established by ordinance
and this amount shall be a cumulative total of the following specific
approval requests.
G.
Escrow procedures:
1.
An applicant is to submit the above required escrow amount and in
accordance with the applicable provisions of NJSA 40:55D-1, et seq.
to the Board secretary at the time of submission, and as part of,
the concept plan or preliminary application. The review of the adequacy
of this fee shall be a component of the completeness review conducted
by the administrative officer. Prior to making a determination of
completeness upon any application, the administrative officer shall
review said application to determine whether the escrow amount submitted
is sufficient. If the administrative officer determines that the submitted
amount is insufficient to cover professional costs anticipated by
the application, appropriate additional funds shall be deposited by
the applicant prior to the administrative officer declaring the application
complete. The application shall not be declared complete, placed on
an agenda for public hearing, or issued final (resolution compliance)
review until such time as all escrow fees deemed sufficient are submitted.
2.
By signing the application, each applicant for subdivision, site
plan, variance, or for an appeal, interpretation, or other action
authorized by this ordinance, shall agree, by signing the application
at the time of the first submission of an application for development,
to pay all reasonable costs for professional review of the application.
This includes all costs incurred with any informal review of a concept
plan that may have preceded the submission of a preliminary application.
Additionally, each applicant shall agree, in writing, to pay all reasonable
costs for the municipal inspection of the constructed improvement.
All such costs for review and inspection must be paid before any construction
permit is issued. Each applicant for nonresidential development, mixed
use and major residential units shall replenish any escrow account
that fails to maintain a $2,500 balance by submitting, at a minimum,
adequate funds to restore the account to a $2,500 balance. Applicants
for single- and two-family developments shall maintain a minimum balance
of $2,000.
3.
Each payment charged to a deposit made for the review of applications,
the review and preparation of documents, and inspections of improvements
shall be pursuant to a voucher from the professional. That voucher
shall identify the personnel performing the services and, for each
date, the services performed, the hours spent to one-quarter-hour
increments, the hourly rate, and the expenses incurred.
4.
All professionals shall submit vouchers to the chief financial officer
of the City on a monthly basis in accordance with schedules and procedures
established by the chief financial officer.
5.
If the services are provided by a municipal employee, the municipal
employee shall prepare and submit to the chief financial officer of
the City a statement, on an as-needed basis based upon application
work to be invoiced, containing the same information as required on
a voucher.
6.
The professional shall send an informational copy of all vouchers
or statements submitted to the chief financial officer of the City
simultaneously to the applicant. The chief financial officer or designee
of the City shall prepare and send the applicant a statement including
an accounting of funds listing all deposits, interest earnings, disbursements,
and the cumulative balance of the escrow accounts. This information
shall be provided to the applicant on a quarterly basis if monthly
charges are $1,000 or less, or on a monthly basis if monthly charges
exceed $1,000.
7.
If an escrow account or deposit contains insufficient funds to enable
the City or approving authority to perform required application reviews
or improvement inspections, the Chief Financial Officer of the City
or Board Administrative Officer or Secretary shall provide the applicant
with a notice of the insufficient escrow or deposit balance. An applicant
shall not be entitled to proceed with the application or any development
until such time as the necessary funds are posted to ensure payment
of professional fees.
8.
In order for work to continue on the development or the application,
the applicant shall within a reasonable time period post a deposit
to the account in an amount to be agreed upon by the City or approving
authority and the applicant. In the interim, any required health and
safety inspections shall be made and charged back against the replenished
deposit.
9.
Further additional escrow deposit fees may be required upon determination
by the administrative officer that additional deposits as authorized
under this section are reasonably required. All approvals shall be
conditioned upon receipt of such additional fees. No building permit
or certificate of occupancy shall be issued until the Chief Financial
Officer has received all required escrow accounts funds.
H.
The following close-out procedures shall apply to all deposits and
escrow accounts and shall commence after the approving authority has
granted final approval and signed the subdivision plat or site plan,
in the case of application review escrow's and deposits, or after
the improvements have been approved, in the case of improvement inspection
escrow and deposits:
1.
The applicant shall send written notice by certified mail to the
chief financial officer of the City, to the approving authority, and
to the relevant municipal professional that the application or the
improvements, as the case may be, are completed.
2.
After receipt of such notice, each affected professional shall render
a final bill to the chief financial officer of the City within 30
days, and shall send a copy simultaneously to the applicant.
3.
The chief financial officer of the City shall render a written final
accounting to the applicant on the uses to which the deposit was put
within 45 days of receipt of all final bills.
4.
Any balances remaining in the deposit or escrow account, including
interest, shall be refunded to the developer along with the final
accounting, except for any amounts retained for administrative expenses
pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53.1.
I.
Appeal procedures:
1.
An applicant shall notify the Plainfield City Council in writing,
with copies to the chief financial officer, the approving authority,
and the professional, whenever the applicant disputes the charges
made by a professional for services rendered to the City in reviewing
an application for development, reviewing or preparing documents,
inspecting improvements, or for other charges made pursuant to law.
2.
The Plainfield City Council, or its designee, shall within a reasonable
time period attempt to remediate any disputed charges.
3.
If the matter is not resolved to the satisfaction of the applicant,
the applicant may appeal to the County Construction Board of Appeals
in accordance with N.J.S.A. 52:27D-127 any charge to an escrow account
or to a deposit by any municipal professional or consultant, or the
cost of the installation of improvements estimated by the City Engineer
pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53.4.
4.
An applicant or his authorized agent shall submit the appeal in writing
to the County Construction Board of Appeals. The applicant or his
authorized agent shall simultaneously send a copy of the appeal to
the City, to the approving authority, and to any professional whose
charge is the subject of the appeal.
5.
An applicant shall file its appeal within 45 days from receipt of
the informational copy of the professional's voucher, except that
if the professional has not supplied the applicant with an informational
copy of the voucher, then the applicant shall file his appeal within
60 days from receipt of the municipal statement of activity against
the deposit or escrow account.
6.
An applicant may file an appeal for an ongoing series of charges
by a professional during a period not exceeding six months to demonstrate
that they represent a pattern of excessive or inaccurate charges.
An applicant making use of this provision need not appeal each charge
individually.
7.
During the pendency of any appeal, the municipality or approving
authority shall continue to process, hear, and decide the application
for development, and to inspect the development in the normal course,
and shall not withhold, delay, or deny reviews, inspections, signing
of subdivision plats or site plans, the reduction or release of performance
or maintenance guarantees, the issuance of construction permits or
certificates of occupancy, or any other approval or permit because
an appeal has been filed or is pending under this section. The chief
financial officer may pay charges out of the appropriate escrow account
or deposit for which an appeal has been filed. If a charge is disallowed
after payment, the chief financial officer shall reimburse the deposit
or escrow account in the amount of such disallowed charge or refund
the amount to the applicant. If a charge is disallowed after payment
to a professional or consultant who is not an employee of the municipality,
the professional or consultant shall reimburse the municipality in
the amount of any such disallowed charge.
J.
General provisions:
1.
All professional charges for review of an application for development,
review and preparation of documents or inspection of improvements
shall be reasonable and necessary, given the status and progress of
the application or construction.
2.
Review fees shall be charged only in connection with an application
for development presently pending before the approving authority,
or upon review of compliance with conditions of approval, or review
of requests for modification or amendment made by the applicant.
3.
A professional shall not review items which are subject to approval
by any state governmental agency and not under municipal jurisdiction,
except to the extent consultation with a state agency is necessary
due to the effect of state approvals in the subdivision or site plan.
4.
Inspection fees shall be charged only for actual work shown on a
subdivision or site plan, or required by an approving resolution.
The City/Board engineer shall not perform any inspection if sufficient
funds to pay for the inspections are not on deposit. Failure to post
or maintain balances in accordance with the requirements of this section
shall subject the developer to a stop-work order and/or suspension
of construction permits or inspections.
5.
Professionals inspecting improvements under construction shall charge
only for inspections that are reasonably necessary to check the progress
and quality of the work and such inspections shall be reasonably based
on the approved development plans and documents.
6.
If the City retains a different professional or consultant in the
place of the professional originally responsible for development,
application review, or inspection of improvements, the City or approving
authority shall be responsible for all time and expenses of the new
professional to become familiar with the application or the project.
The City or approving authority shall not bill the applicant or charge
the deposit or the escrow account for any such services.
