however access is also encouraged at the rear of the buildings adjacent
to parking areas.
[8] Other architectural features in
the center area should include corner towers, cupolas, clock towers,
spires, balconies, colonnades or similar features.
(8)
Green building technology.
(a)
The U.S. Green Building Council has developed
a series of guidelines designed specifically for the commercial building
industry, including LEEDTM (Leadership
in Energy and Environmental Design) Rating Systems, such as LEEDTM NC 2.2 for new construction and major renovations
and LEEDTM CI for commercial interiors
renovation. These guidelines are required to be integrated into the
design and construction of projects in the MU Zone. Each of the below
items are required to be addressed in each application for development
in the MU Zone, however, not every item below is required to be included
in the development. Site specific conditions, review by the Township's
Architectural Committee and coordination with the Board Engineer will
determine what Green Building technologies are applicable.
[1] Utilization of alternative and
sustainable energy sources, such as solar panels, green areas/green
roofs, stormwater recharging systems and solar lighting to increase
resource efficiency.
[2] Utilization of water conservation
techniques, including gray water reuse for nonpotable water utility,
high-efficiency fixtures and instant water heaters.
[3] Conservation of rainwater for use
on green roofs for on-site stormwater management and recapture for
use in on-site irrigation systems.
[4] Integration of materials to reduce
the heat island effect, such as reflective pavement surfaces, and
roofs, low-maintenance landscaped areas, shading at south facing exposures,
and shading devices such as shade trees or awnings appropriate for
building orientation.
[5] Energy efficient and recycled building
materials that are manufactured within the region, that are rapidly
renewable and are responsibly harvested with other conservation and
protective measures to our natural resources, such as recycled steel
and concrete, renewable woods, i.e., bamboo, materials with recycled
content, including carpeting and masonry products. Include high-performance
insulated glazing on windows based on site orientation. Specify lights
that do not contribute to light pollution. Utilize high-efficiency
fixtures and sensors for low-occupancy areas. Use energy star appliances.
Install continuous metering equipment. Install HCFC- and CFC- free
HVAC equipment. Design refrigeration and fire suppression systems
without the use of CFCs, HCFCs or Halons. Utilize photovoltaic roof
tiles and panels. Capture energy through solar and wind power for
on-site energy use. Install geothermal technology for heating and
cooling of buildings.
[6] Indoor environmental quality can
be improved by meeting ASHRAE 62-1999 standards to reduce indoor pollutants
by utilizing low-emitting materials, designing points of access to
minimize the introduction of pollutants and allowing occupants to
have control with regard to both their thermal comfort and daylight
and views including operable windows for comfort. Provide carbon monoxide
detectors.
(b)
Design guidelines for LEED are found at http://www.usgbc.org/

shall contain a minimum of a set aside of 15% for the construction
of affordable housing units, or any percentage or number of units
generated by those regulations of the Council on Affordable housing
in effect at the time of site plan approval. The set aside of 15%
or any percentage or number of units generated by those regulations
of the Council on Affordable Housing in effect at the time of site
plan approval shall be determined based on the gross number of residential
units proposed for the mixed use development and shall be constructed
on-site. The affordable units shall comply with the Council On Affordable
Housing (COAH) regulations promulgated by the State of New Jersey

[Added 3-27-2018 by Ord.
No. 8-18]
A beach cottage development shall be permitted as a conditional
use on the following parcels, provided that the lot, use and structure
adhere to the following: Block 25, Lot 4; Block 26, Lot 4; and Block
36, Lots 13, 18 and 24.
A. Purpose.
(1)
This section replaces the Beach Cottage Community Zone (§
245-144B). The purpose of this overlay zone is to provide a mechanism by which parcels within the Camp Osborn portion of the Township that were devastated by Super Storm Sandy in 2012 can be reconstructed to exhibit the best qualities of the beach community while meeting current building, fire and flood standards to safeguard the community from future storm-related casualty. The existing zoning (R-7.5) does not reflect the historic character of Camp Osborn, thus an overlay recognizing Camp Osborn's qualities is a zoning alternative for this area. Camp Osborn is characterized by three distinct communities, each unique to itself yet bound by a common element of quaint, livable, ocean-oriented presence. The three distinct areas of Camp Osborn, Block 25, Lot 4 (the Bay); Block 26, Lot 4 (the Median); and Block 36, Lots 13, 18 and 24 (the Ocean) — each will be addressed separately as their respective parcels require unique solutions. This overlay sets forth the standards which are intended to provide the approving authority with a guide for the purpose of reviewing applications for proposed reconstruction. In reviewing an application, the approving authority may act on site plans submitted to it or may suggest modifications or changes. In approving an application, the approving authority may require such other features or designs in keeping with the intent thereof that will further the purpose of these standards and regulations. The approving authority shall decide each application in accordance with the standards set forth in this chapter.
(2)
Camp Osborn was historically characterized by a diverse and eclectic grouping of beach cottages. The beach cottages were situated as multiple principal structures. Under §
245-14, one principal building per lot was permitted: "No residential lot shall have erected upon it more than one principal building, except as otherwise provided in Part
2 of this chapter." The original configuration appears to have predated local zoning. This overlay zone will permit the continuation of this development pattern, i.e., multiple structures on a single lot, so long as the community continues to be governed by a central board. Since 1999, the property was subjected to the condominium form of ownership by way of the recordation of two master deeds in the Ocean County Clerk's office creating 87 condominium units. This form of ownership continues to this date.
(3)
Once the community is reconstructed, residential structures
will be permitted to be expanded, added to or enlarged only under
the zoning provisions provided herein. If an applicant wishes to expand,
add or enlarge the square footage of a structure that exceeds the
standards provided in this overlay zone, the applicant will need to
seek a variance before the approving authority to do so.
(4)
Each residential dwelling unit shall be elevated in order to
meet or exceed floodplain requirements.
(5)
Staircases, decks, porches and other attached structures shall
not extend outside of the building structure footprint if the result
would be the creation of a separation of less than 10 feet between
structures. If a residential dwelling structure is less than 15 feet
in width, there may be structures attached to the building structure,
provided that the combined side and the rear yard structure separations
are not less than eight feet in the Bay Area and five feet in the
Median Area. This restriction shall not apply to any residential dwelling
for which there is a validly existing approval by the approving authority
as of the date of the adoption of this section.
(6)
As multiple structures are proposed on parcels listed, setbacks
will be measured from streets, property lines, common roadways or
as spacing between structures, where appropriate.
B. Permitted uses. The following are permitted uses in the Camp Osborn
Overlay District:
(1)
Detached single-family residential units.
(3)
The following shall be permitted anywhere within the Camp Osborn
Overlay District:
(a)
Municipal parks, playgrounds and other municipal buildings and
uses as are deemed appropriate and established by the Township Council.
The minimum land area shall not be less than 1/2 acre.
(b)
Other public buildings of a governmental, community or cultural
nature.
(c)
Condominium-owned parking lots.
(d)
Decks and porches attached to the principal structure are permitted
as otherwise provided in this section.
C. Accessory uses permitted throughout the Camp Osborn Overlay District:
(1)
All accessory uses are prohibited, including but not limited to detached decks, sheds, fences, storage bins, pools and any and all other accessory uses defined in Part
1 of this chapter, expect those listed under Subsection
C(3) below.
(2)
At-grade patios, concrete walks and pavers are permitted within
setback limits.
(3)
Storage is permitted under structures that have been elevated
to meet floodplain elevation; however, these areas are required to
be secured as to prevent hazardous conditions during flooding and
may not impede required parking areas.
