[Ord. No. 77-1, § 2; Ord. No. 90-27, § 8; Ord. No. 2005-13, § I]
At the time of any application for a zoning permit, every educational institution shall certify to the development enforcement officer the number of additional employees (faculty and staff) and students to be accommodated in the proposed structure and the aggregate number of all employees and students by category, i.e., employees, graduate students, student research fellows, and other students projected to be employed by or enrolled in the educational institution after the proposed structure is constructed and occupied.
(a) 
For each 1.25 employees, one parking space shall be provided within the educational district, within adjacent educational districts, or within contiguous properties in adjoining municipalities.
(b) 
For each 2.5 graduate students employed as research fellows and/or assistants and for each five students not so employed, one parking space shall be provided within the educational district, within adjacent educational districts, or within contiguous properties in adjoining municipalities.
(c) 
For places of public assembly, such as lecture halls of over 100 seats, auditoriums, theatres, chapels or gymnasiums, but not including libraries or dining halls, one space shall be provided for each five seats. Parking spaces provided for normal daytime activity for other purposes shall be considered to be available for such public uses as are normally conducted in the evening or weekends.
(d) 
At least once a year following approval of a structure, every educational institution shall certify to the development enforcement officer the aggregate number of employees (faculty and staff) and students currently employed or enrolled. Whenever that number exceeds the number certified at the time of application, the development enforcement officer shall notify the board of original jurisdiction, if there was one, and recommend such additional parking spaces as may be required. In the case of prior approval by a board of jurisdiction, such board shall reopen the application, and the educational institution shall propose such changes to the approved site plan as are necessary to provide the additional parking spaces in accordance with the standards as to the number, location, and design of such spaces set forth in this chapter. In the case of prior approval by the development enforcement officer, such officer shall require that the educational institution provide the additional parking spaces in accordance with the standards as to the number, location, and design of such spaces set forth in this chapter, and the institution shall promptly do so. With every application for development, the applicant shall submit an affidavit that it has submitted all the certifications required by this section for all property within the borough under its ownership or control. No application for development shall be deemed complete if the applicant fails to submit such affidavit or if the certifications required by this section have not been submitted.
(e) 
Some or all of the required number of parking spaces may be located at off-site parking areas or on properties in other municipalities if those spaces are serviced by a certified shuttle system. Cessation of such a shuttle system will require that the required number of parking spaces be provided within the educational district subject to review and approval of the board of jurisdiction, provided that such replacement parking shall not be provided east of Olden Street. Certification that the shuttle system is effective shall be filed annually with the development enforcement officer by a recognized transportation management consulting organization with expertise in assessing shuttle systems; all costs for this assessment are to be paid for by the educational institution whose development is utilizing such a shuttle operation. The development enforcement officer will evaluate the certification and report on the adequacy of the shuttle operation to the board of jurisdiction.
The shuttle system will provide regular and frequent scheduled service that promotes and encourages use of the shuttle. Shuttle vehicles should be appropriately sized to maximize fuel efficiency and to limit exhaust and noise emission. Privately owned and operated shuttles will endeavor to avoid use of streets that are primarily residential in character where practical including Aiken Avenue, Murray Place, Patton Avenue or Princeton Avenue. Any future joint privately-publicly operated shuttle can provide limited neighborhood services including senior citizens and handicapped residents on a call-in pickup/drop-off "Dial-a-Ride" type basis to these streets.
[Ord. No. 77-1; § 2; Ord. No. 90-27, § 9]

For any other permitted buildings and uses for which no requirements are set forth above, appropriate and comparable off-street parking requirements shall be determined by the planning board, taking into consideration the amount of traffic to be generated thereby, the likelihood of all day or short term use of parking spaces, the location and availability of other means of access and other factors affecting the amount of traffic likely to be generated and the need for parking.
