Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the approval provisions of this Part
3 shall be administered by the Planning Board in accordance with Section 28 of Chapter 291, Laws of New Jersey 1975. Whenever the Board of Adjustment has jurisdiction over
an application it shall act in the same manner and in the same capacity
as the Planning Board as hereinafter provided.
Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the provisions of this Part
3 shall be enforced by the Township Engineer. It shall be the Township Engineer's duty to investigate possible violations of this Part
3 found to exist, to serve notice upon the owner and take appropriate action.
Prior to the filing of a formal application
for development, an applicant may request, and the Planning Board
shall grant, an informal review of a concept plan of the intended
development. Said concept plan shall be in sufficient detail to clearly
show the intended scope and design of the proposed development. The
informal review shall not be binding on either the Planning Board
or the applicant. However, this step is recommended particularly for
major subdivisions and site plans in order to help ensure later compliance
with ordinance requirements and Planning Board satisfaction with basic
elements of the plan.
