Purpose

1. Currently the LDO only requires an applicant to notice if their application proposes

deviations or variances and exempts conventional site plans, minor subdivision, and final

approvals from needing to notice property owners within 200 ft. This amendment would

remove those exemptions and require all applications to send a notice to all property

owners within 200' of the application site.

2. This is within the power granted in the MLUL under NJSA 40:55D-12. It will greatly

improve resident's awareness of all applications going to a land use board.

RE: Land Development Ordinance Amendments Notice Requirements 345-19

NJSA 40:55D-12. Notices of application, requirements.

Requires applicants to provide notice at least 10 days prior to the date of the hearing.

NJSA40:55D-12.a. exempts

1) conventional site plan,

2) minor subdivisions, and3) final approval.

That subsection concludes with //notwjthstandingtheforegoing,thegoverningbody may by ordinance requirepublic notice for such categories of site plan review as may be specified by ordinance.

The 2000 LDO update provided for the exemption from those 3 subcategories-this ordinance amendmentwould remove that exemption and now all applications to a land use board will be required to provide noticesaccording to state noticing requirements. Simpiy stated, site plan application with no deviations or variances

would now be required to notice in the same way they would if a variance is required.
