The following information shall be submitted
for all general development plans:
A. A general land use plan indicating the tract area and general locations of the land uses to be included in the planned development.

Except in the case of a planned unit development, the impervious coverage of a tract area including the entire POD-S and POD-N Zones shall not exceed 25% and the impervious coverage of a tract consisting of the POD-S Zone alone shall not exceed 40%, and these calculations shall be provided. Improved lot coverage for planned unit development shall be regulated by §
250-123 of Chapter
250.
B. A circulation plan showing the general location and
types of transportation facilities, including facilities for pedestrian
access within the planned development and any proposed improvements
to the existing transportation system outside the planned development.

and general location of parks and any other land areas to be set aside
for conservation and recreational purposes and a general description
of improvements proposed to be made thereon, including a plan for
the operation and maintenance of parks and recreational lands.

the proposed location of sewage and water lines, any drainage facilities
necessitated by the physical characteristics of the site, proposed
methods for handling solid waste disposal, and a plan for the operation
and maintenance of proposed utilities.

method of controlling and managing stormwater on site. The plan shall
reflect stormwater management standards in conformance with N.J.A.C.

of the vegetation, soils, topography, geology, surface hydrology,
climate and cultural resources of the site, existing man-made structures
or features, and the probable impact of the development on the environmental
attributes of the site.

type of supporting community facilities which may include, but not
be limited to, educational or cultural facilities, historic sites,

(2) That the proposals for maintenance and conservation of common open space are reliable and that the amount, location and purpose of the common open space are adequate and in conformance with the requirements of Article
XVIII of Chapter
250;
(3) That the provision, through the physical design of
the proposed development, for public services, control of vehicular
and pedestrian traffic, and the amenities of light and air, recreation
and visual enjoyment are adequate;
(4) The proposed planned development will not have an
unreasonably adverse impact upon the area in which it is proposed
to be established; and
