[Added 5-4-2017 by Ord.

[Added 1-4-2007 by Ord. No. 1407]
A. An application for development shall be complete for
purposes of commencing the applicable time period for action by the
Planning Board or Board of Adjustment or its authorized committee
or designee. A complete application shall include an application form
completed as specified by this section and the rules and regulations
of the Planning Board or Board of Adjustment and all accompanying
information and documents required for approval of the application
for development as indicated on the checklist adopted by ordinance
and provided to the applicant.
(1) No subdivision and/or site plan application shall
be deemed complete unless the land subject to the proposed subdivision
and/or site plan is serviced by both public sanitary sewer and public
water. Applicants shall be required, as a condition of completeness
for all subdivision and site plan applications, to obtain public sanitary
sewer and public water utility certifications allocating capacity
to the subdivision and/or site plan from the approving authority.
A sanitary sewer capacity allocation and connection or collection
system upgrade or expansion approval resolution to serve the proposed
development must be obtained from the Township Council of the Township
of Saddle Brook. A water main extension agreement or will-serve letter
must be obtained from the serving water utility company.
(2) Where the need for off-tract public sanitary sewer
and/or water utility service improvements are required by the proposed
subdivision or site plan, the applicant shall, as a condition of application
completeness and at the applicant's sole cost and expense, obtain
all lands and/or easements located outside the development property
boundaries. Such lands and/or easements, upon completion and acceptance
of the off-tract utility improvements, shall be dedicated to the Township
of Saddle Brook and/or the water utility company.
(3) In the event that the agency, committee or designee
does not certify the application to be complete within 45 days of
the date of its submission, the application shall be deemed complete
upon the expiration of the forty-five-day period for purposes of commencing
the applicable time period, unless the application lacks information
indicated on a checklist as hereinafter specified, a copy of which
shall have been provided to the applicant, and the municipal agency
or its authorized committee or designee has notified the applicant
in writing of the deficiencies in the application within 45 days of
submission of the application. The applicant may request that one
or more of the submission requirements be waived, in which event the
agency or its authorized committee shall grant or deny the request
within 45 days. Nothing herein shall be construed as diminishing the
applicant's obligation to prove in the application process that he
is entitled to approval of the application. The municipal agency may
subsequently require correction of any information found to be in
error and submission of additional information not specified in the
chapter or any revisions in the accompanying documents as are reasonably
necessary to make an informed decision as to whether the requirements
necessary for the approval of the application for development have
been met. The application shall not be deemed incomplete for lack
of any such additional information or any revisions in the accompanying
documents so required by the agency.
B. All checklist requirements for all applications for
development are contained in Chapter A214 of the Code of the Township
of Saddle Brook and are presently on file and on forms in the Municipal
Office of the Township of Saddle Brook, and said checklists are hereby
incorporated by reference as if the same were set forth at length
within the chapter. The checklists previously adopted by ordinance
for use in connection with applications filed with the Planning Board
or Board of Adjustment are to be amended by including therein the
following as conditions to be satisfied or waived prior to an application
being deemed complete under the provisions of the Municipal Land Use
Law:

shall submit a copy of a letter of nonapplicability, memorandum of
understanding or other documentation from the New Jersey Department
of Environmental Protection approving or waiving a specific cleanup
plan or other means of preventing the contamination from impacting
on the public health, safety, or general welfare.
(2) For any application on any site which has been subject
to action by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as
a result of contamination by hazardous materials, the applicant shall
submit a copy of a letter of nonapplicability, memorandum of understanding,
approved remediation plan or other documentation from the United States
Environmental Protection Agency approving or waiving a specific cleanup
plan or other means of preventing the contamination from impacting

off-tract public sanitary sewer and/or water utility service improvements
are created by the proposed subdivision or site plan, the applicant
shall, as a condition of application completeness and at the applicant's
sole expense, obtain all lands and/or easements located outside the
development property boundaries. Such lands and/or easements, upon
completion and acceptance of the off-tract utility improvement, shall
be dedicated to the Township of Saddle Brook.)
