Subject to the requirements and procedural provisions of Article V of this chapter, all applications for approval of subdivision of land and for approval of site plans shall be governed by the provisions of this article.
A. 
Informal review. At the request of the developer the Planning Board shall grant an informal review of a concept plan for a development for which the developer intends to prepare and submit an application for development. The developer shall not be required to submit any fees for such an informal review. The developer shall not be bound by any concept plan for which review is requested, and the Planning Board shall not be bound by any such review.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
B. 
Exceptions from requirements. The Planning Board when acting upon applications for preliminary or minor subdivision approval or upon applications for preliminary site plan approval shall have the power to grant such exemptions from the requirements for approval as may be reasonable and within the general purpose and intent of the provisions for preliminary or minor subdivision or preliminary site plan approval, if the literal enforcement of one or more provisions of this chapter is impracticable or will exact undue hardship because of peculiar conditions pertaining to the plan in question.
C. 
Simultaneous review. The Planning Board shall have the power to review and approve or deny conditional uses or site plans simultaneously with review for subdivision approval without the developer being required to make further application to the Planning Board or the Planning Board being required to hold further hearings. The longest time period for action by the Planning Board whether it be for subdivision, conditional use or site plan approval shall apply. Whenever approval of a conditional use is requested by the developer pursuant to this subsection, notice of the hearing on the plat shall include reference to the request for such conditional use.
D. 
The review by the Planning Board of a conditional use shall include any required site plan review.
E. 
Substantial change after hearing.

Distribution of signed plats and site plans. After approval and signing of a minor plat, preliminary plat or final plat of a subdivision or preliminary site plan or final site plan, copies thereof shall be sent by the Administrative Secretary to the County Planning Board, the Sewerage Authority, the Board of Health, the Construction Official, the Borough Engineer and the Tax Assessor.
H. 
Conditional approvals. If required approvals from other government agencies outside of the jurisdiction of the Borough of Eatontown have not been received prior to the reviewing board's approval of an application for development, such approval may be conditioned upon the subsequent approval or approvals by the other government agencies unless the applicant shall request that such approval be withheld until the approval or approvals from the other-government agencies have been received. If approval is granted conditioned upon the subsequent approval of another government agency and such government agency requires revisions in the plat which alter the layout and/or design standards approved by the Planning Board to an extent that the Borough Engineer determines that the basis upon which the approval was granted has been changed, the applicant shall be required to receive revised approval from the reviewing board and pay the fees for such revised approval set forth in Article XIII of this chapter.

(1) 
The applicant shall submit, together with or in advance of the application and other required documents, a document containing an explanation of the expected flexibility and economy in layout and design for the residential cluster, industrial park, or office commercial park development and the appropriateness of the development in reference to the development otherwise permitted in the zone. Such a document should outline the applicant's position with respect to the setting aside of open space, the amount and location of any common open space, density transfer and allocation, and any timing requirements. The applicant is encouraged to submit as much information as possible relative to the above subjects to promote prompt mutual agreement between the applicant and the Planning Board prior to preliminary approval.
(2) 
Findings for residential cluster, business park, industrial park or office commercial park development. Prior to approval of residential cluster, business park, industrial park, or office commercial park developments, the Planning Board shall find the following facts and conclusions:

Such improvements shall include, but are not limited to, drainage facilities necessary to protect off-tract areas from flooding, erosion control facilities, required screening and fencing, all improvements within public rights-of-way and easements and the cost of seeding or otherwise stabilizing the site or subdivision. Such guarantee shall assure the installation of such improvements on or before an agreed date, guarantee the completion of all improvements without damage to or interference with adjacent properties or public facilities, and hold the Borough Council and Planning Board and their employees and agents harmless with respect to any acts of the developer, its agents, successors or assigns. The total estimated cost to the Borough of constructing all improvements shall be based upon the estimated contract construction costs, which would prevail upon expiration of the guarantee period. Such performance guarantee may be in the form of cash, certified check, negotiable securities, a performance bond issued by a bonding company or surety company approved by the Borough Council, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a banking or other financial institution duly chartered and authorized by the United States of America or by the State of New Jersey, and approved by the Borough Council, or any other type of surety acceptable to and approved by the Borough Attorney and Borough Council, provided that at least 10% of the performance guarantee shall be in the form of cash or certified check.

[Amended by Ord. No. 15-83]
(3) 
The performance guaranty shall be approved by the Borough Attorney as to form, sufficiency and execution. Such performance guaranty shall run for a period to be fixed by the Borough Council, but in no case for a term of more than two years. However, with the consent of the owner and the surety, if there be one, the time allowed for installation of the improvements for which the performance guaranty has been provided may be extended by resolution of the Borough Council for an additional period not to exceed one year. As a condition or as part of any such extension, the amount of any performance guaranty shall be increased or reduced, as the case may be, to an amount not to exceed 120% of the cost of the installation as determined as of the time of the passage of the resolution.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
(4) 
If, during the period of the performance guarantee, the developer fails to prosecute the work of completing the improvements so as not to create hazards to life, health, property or public safety, the Borough may, after five days' notice, perform, or cause to be performed, any necessary corrective work and deduct the cost thereof from the 10% cash or certified check portion of the guarantee. Upon notice of any such deduction, the subdivider shall, within 10 days, restore the full 10% cash balance or his performance guarantee will be considered breached and the Borough may take such action as it is entitled to by law.
(5) 
If the required improvements are not completed or corrected in accordance with the performance guaranty, the obligor and surety, if any, shall be liable thereon to the Borough for the reasonable costs of the improvements not completed or corrected and the Borough may either prior to or after the receipt of the proceeds thereof complete such improvements.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
(6) 
Upon substantial completion of all required appurtenant utility improvements, and the connection of same to the public system, the obligor may notify the governing body in writing, by certified mail addressed in care of the Municipal Clerk, of the completion or substantial completion of improvements and shall send a copy thereof to the Municipal Engineer. Thereupon, the Municipal Engineer shall inspect all improvements of which notice has been given and shall file a detailed report in writing, with the governing body, indicating either approval, partial approval or rejection of such improvements with a statement of reasons for any rejection. The cost of the improvements as improved or rejected shall be set forth.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]

The governing body shall either approve, partially approve or reject the improvements on the basis of the report of the Municipal Engineer and shall notify the obligor in writing, by certified mail, of the contents of said report and the action of said approving authority with relation thereto, not later than 65 days after receipt of the notice from the obligor of the completion of the improvements. Where partial approval is rendered, the obligor shall be released from all liability pursuant to its performance guarantee, except for that portion adequately sufficient to secure provision of improvements not yet approved; provided that 30% of the amount of the performance guarantee posted may be retained to insure completion of all improvements. Failure of the governing body to send or provide such notification to the obligor within 65 days shall be deemed to constitute approval of the improvements and the obligor and surety, if any, shall be released from all liability pursuant to such performance guarantee for such improvements.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
(8) 
If any portion of the required improvements are rejected, the Borough Council may require the obligor to complete such improvements and, upon completion, the same procedure of notification as set forth in this section shall be followed.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
(9) 
Nothing herein, however, shall be construed to limit the right of the obligor to contest by legal proceedings any determination of the Borough Council or the Borough Engineer.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
(10) 
The obligor shall reimburse the municipality for all reasonable inspection fees paid to the Borough Engineer for the inspection of required improvements; provided that the municipality may require of the developer a deposit for all or a portion of the reasonably anticipated fees to be paid to the Borough Engineer for such inspection.
[Amended by Ord. No. 3-80]
(11) 
In the event that final approval is by stages or sections of development pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-38, the provisions of this section shall be applied by stage or section.

(4) 
Copies. The Clerk shall keep a supply of copies of these bond requirements in his/her office for the use of applicants and the general public.
C. 
Inspection requirements.
(1) 
Inspection, testing and engineering administration fees. Prior to signing of any final plat, issuance of a development permit or the start of construction of any improvements required by the provision of this chapter the developer shall deposit by cash or certified check with the Borough Clerk an amount determined from the appropriate schedule under Article XIII of this chapter. Said amount shall be used to defray the cost of inspection, testing, engineering, administration and other costs, and fees paid by the Borough in connection with the inspection and acceptance of the installation of the required improvements. All monies received on account of engineering and inspection fees shall be deposited by the Borough Treasurer as general revenue as provided by law. The Borough shall provide appropriate budget items to cover the cost of all necessary administrative and engineering services.
(2) 
Inspection notice. All required improvements except those utility improvements which are not the responsibility of the Borough shall be subject to inspection and approval by the Borough Engineer, who shall be notified by the developer at least five days prior to the initial start of construction and again 24 hours prior to the resumption of work after any idle period exceeding one working day. All of the utility improvements shall be subject to inspection and approval by the owner of or agency controlling the utility or by the Borough Engineer in all other cases.
(3) 
Modification of improvements. At any time, whether as a result of his inspection of work underway or otherwise the Borough Engineer may recommend that the developer be required to modify the design and extent of the improvements required, notifying the Planning Board of his recommendations. The Planning Board shall, if it considers such modifications to be major, or if requested by the developer or Borough Engineer, take formal action to approve or disapprove such recommendations; provided, however, that it must first afford the developer an opportunity to be heard if he so requests. If the Board takes no formal action within 30 days of such recommendations, or where the developer has not requested formal Planning Board action, its approval will be assumed. Similarly, the Planning Board may grant or deny the developer permission to effect such modification upon his application and the Borough Engineer's approval. In either event, where such modification is to be effected, the appropriate plan must be revised by the developer or his engineer to reflect such modification and sufficient copies thereof submitted to the Administrative Secretary for distribution.
(4) 
General inspection requirements. All improvements, except as otherwise provided, shall be subject to inspection and approval by the Borough Engineer. No underground installation shall be covered until inspected and approved by the Borough Engineer or those agencies having jurisdiction over the particular installation. If such installation is covered prior to inspection, it shall be uncovered or other inspection means used, such as a television or other pipeline camera as may be deemed necessary by the Borough Engineer, and charges for such work will be paid for by the developer.
(5) 
Inspection not acceptance. Inspection of any work by the Borough Engineer, or his authorized representative, shall not be considered to be final approval or rejection of the work, but shall only be considered to be a determination of whether or not the specific work involved was being done to Borough specifications or other required standards at the time of inspection. Any damage to such work or other unforeseen circumstances such as the effect of the weather, other construction, changing conditions, settlement, etc., between the time of installation and the time that the developer wishes to be released from his performance guaranty, shall be the full responsibility of the developer, and no work shall be considered accepted until release of the performance guaranty.
(6) 
Payment to contractors. No developer shall enter into any contract requiring the Borough, the Borough Engineer, or any of their agents, employees or other representatives to make any declarations, written or otherwise, as a condition of payment of said developer to a contractor as to the acceptance or rejection of the work. Neither the Borough, the Borough Engineer nor any of their agents, employees or representatives shall make any such declaration.
(7) 
Procedure on acceptance of public improvements. When the developer has constructed and installed the streets, drainage facilities, curbs, sidewalks, street signs, monuments and other improvements in accordance with Borough regulations, standards and specifications, and desires the Borough to accept the said improvements, he shall, in writing, addressed to and in a form approved by the Borough, with copies thereof to the Borough Engineer, request the Borough Engineer to make a semifinal inspection of the said improvements. If the improvements have been constructed under a performance guaranty after approval of a final plat, the developer shall submit an as-built plan showing as-built grades, profiles and sections and locations of all subsurface utilities such as french drains, combination drains, sanitary sewage disposal systems, both public and individual water lines and control valves, gas lines, telephone conduits, monuments, iron property markers, and any other utilities or improvements installed other than as shown on the approved final plat. Said as-built plan shall be certified to by a licensed New Jersey professional engineer. If any improvements are constructed prior to final plat approval, the final plat shall reflect all changes and as-built conditions and be so certified. Said as-built plan(s) shall be submitted on reproducible media.
(8) 
Additional inspection fee escrow. If the Borough determines that a proposed development involves unusual or complicated aspects which could result in expense to the Borough in excess of the inspection fees set forth above, the municipal agency may, as a condition of final approval, require the developer to provide an additional escrow deposit. Expenses in excess of the normal inspection fees may be deducted from the escrow deposit. Any balance shall be returned to the applicant upon release of the performance guarantees and/or issuance of a final certificate of occupancy. In determining the amount of any escrow required, the Borough, or Borough Engineer, may consider:
[Amended by Ord. No. 20-88]
(a) 
The duration and size of the project;
(b) 
Unusual design aspects;
(c) 
The degree and extent of municipal inspection required; and
(d) 
The extent of conformity to normal design standards.
D. 
Site maintenance during construction.
(1) 
It shall be the responsibility of the developer to maintain the entire site or subdivision in a safe and orderly condition during construction.

Should the developer fail in his obligation to maintain the site or subdivision in a safe and orderly condition, the Borough may, on five days' written notice or immediately in the case of hazard to life, health or property, undertake whatever work may be necessary to return the site or subdivision to a safe and orderly condition and deduct the cost thereof from the 10% cash or certified check portion of the performance guaranty. Upon notice of such deduction, the developer shall, within 10 days, restore the full 10% cash balance or his performance guaranty will be considered breached and the Borough may take such action as it is entitled to by law.
(3) 
The Construction Official shall, upon receiving notice from the Borough Engineer that a developer is in violation of this subsection (§ 89-92D) suspend further issuance of certificates of occupancy and building permits and shall order cessation of work on any outstanding permits.

In the event that other governmental agencies or public utilities automatically will own the utilities to be installed or the improvements are covered by a performance or maintenance guarantee given to another governmental agency, no performance or maintenance guarantee, as the case may be, shall be required for such utilities or improvements.
Before any developer effectively assigns any of his interest in any preliminary or final approval, he must notify the Administrative Secretary and supply detailed information with regard to the name, address, principals, type of organization, competency, experience and past performance of the assignee, transferee or agent. Notice of such assignment or transfer shall be given no later than 10 days after its effective date.
