The following regulations shall apply to all low- and moderate-income housing units in the R-5 District, R-6LM District and R-7 District:
A.
Fifty percent of all low- and moderate-income units shall be priced so as to be eligible for rent or purchase by low-income households and 50% shall be eligible for rent or purchase by moderate-income households. If a fraction results from the above 50% calculation, the number of moderate-income units may exceed the number of low-income units by one.
B.
Bedroom distribution.
(1)
At a minimum, 35% of all low- and moderate-income units shall be two-bedroom units.
(2)
At a minimum, 15% of all low- and moderate-income units shall be three-bedroom units.
(3)
No more than 20% of all low- and moderate-income units may be efficiency units.
(4)
At least 1/2 of all two-bedroom and 1/2 of all three-bedroom units shall be for low-income households.
(5)
The above shall not apply to age-restricted housing units.
C.
Construction sequencing. Low- and moderate-income housing units shall be built in accordance with the following schedule:
Minimum Percentage of Low- and Moderate-Income Units Completed | Percentage of Market Housing Units Completed |
|---|---|
0% | 25% |
10% | 25% + 1 unit |
50% | 50% |
75% | 75% |
100% | 90% |
— | 100% |
E.
Low- and moderate-income housing units shall be designated on the site plan and shall have compatible exteriors to non-low- and moderate-income housing units and shall be located so that such low- and moderate-income housing units will have comparable access to that of non-low- and moderate-income housing units to all common elements within the development.
F.
Low- and moderate-income housing units shall be evenly dispersed throughout the entire development in as uniform a fashion as is practical, such that an inclusionary development shall integrate the low- and moderate-income units with market units. No more than 50% of the units in any single, multiunit structure shall be reserved for low- or moderate-income households, unless this requirement is specifically waived by the Planning Board or Zoning Board of Adjustment as a condition of site plan approval. Such waiver shall nonetheless further the integration of low- and moderate-income units with market units in accordance with N.J.A.C. 5.93-5.6(e).[2]
