[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.
