In applications for minor site plan, the Planning
Board may waive notice and public hearing for an application for development
if the Planning Board or site plan subcommittee of the Board appointed
by the Chairman finds that the application for development conforms
to the definition of "minor site plan." Minor site plan approval shall
be deemed to be final approval of the site plan by the Board, provided
that the Board or said subcommittee may condition such approval on
terms ensuring the provision of improvement.
A. Minor site plan approval shall be granted or denied
within 45 days of the date of submission of a complete application
to the administrative officer or within such further time as may be
consented to by the applicant. Failure of the Planning Board to act
within the period prescribed shall constitute minor site plan approval.
B. Whenever review or approval of the application by
the County Planning Board is required, the Municipal Planning Board
shall condition any approval that it grants upon timely receipt of
a favorable report on the application by the County Planning Board
or approval by the County Planning Board by its failure to report
thereon within the required time period.
C. The zoning requirements and general terms and conditions,
whether conditional or otherwise, upon which minor site plan approval
was granted, shall not be changed for a period of two years after
the date of minor site plan approval.
D. Application for minor site plan approval shall be
accompanied by the appropriate fee, and each applicant who submits
a site plan for minor plat approval shall agree in writing to pay
all reasonable costs for professional review of the site plan by the
Township. The applicant shall be billed and shall pay all reasonable
costs over and above the application fee.

G. The Development Review Committee shall review the
minor site plan and determine whether or not the application includes
all the information required for review. Should the application be
determined either to be incomplete or require substantial revisions,
the applicant shall be notified within 45 days of submission and may
thereafter submit an appropriately revised application to the Secretary
of the Planning Board as in the first instance.
