In all cases where any residential zone in the township shall abut or adjoin any commercial or industrial zone or use, no truck wells, truck bays, loading docks or loading doors shall be constructed, reconstructed or used on such side abutting a residential zone or use unless such truck well, truck bay, loading dock or loading door is screened from such residential use or zone by a noise-abatement structure designed to ensure compliance with N.J.A.C. 7:29 and in compliance with §
208-7C(4)(d)[1] of this chapter. There shall also be a landscaped buffer strip not less than 35 feet in width between the residential property line and the noise-abatement structure and there shall be no use permitted in such strip. Such buffer strip shall comply with § 208-7C(4)[c].

In the case of any new construction or substantial alteration upon any premises in any district to which the provisions of Chapter
113 entitled “Flood Damage Protection” do not apply, if the Zoning Enforcement Officer determines upon inspection of the premises that such premises is or will be elevated above the neighboring premises on either side thereof, then there shall be required the installation of curb or wall of sufficient height and strength as to contain upon the premises being built any and all runoff stormwater, all in accordance with the requirements of the Township Engineer. The Township Engineer is hereby authorized and directed on the application of the builder to make such inspection as may be necessary to supply such specifications as he may deem proper to abate any nuisance which would otherwise exist and to require that there be posted in escrow with the Township such sum necessary to abide the reasonable charges for the Engineer’s services. In case of any dispute as to the necessity of such work or the reasonableness of the Township Engineer’s charges, the Township Committee, upon complaint to it, shall finally determine any and all such disputes.
