Universal Citation: NJ Admin Code 16:47-12.8

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) Implementation of an AMP shall be achieved through:

1. Enforcement of the municipal land development ordinances and policies that implement the provisions of the AMP;

2. The Department's issuance of permits consistent with the provisions of the AMP; and

3. The implementation of recommended roadway improvements by the appropriate agencies.

(b) A municipality issuing land development approvals and land use permits for a lot or site located within the AMP shall ensure that:

1. Land use intensities are consistent with those identified in the AMP;

2. The number of driveways between the State highway and a lot or site does not exceed the maximum number of driveways identified in the AMP;

3. The driveways between the State highway and a lot or site are located within the access envelope identified in the AMP for each lot or site;

4. Any lot subdivision approved subsequent to the adoption of an AMP does not create any nonconforming lot, as described in this chapter. Any subsequent lot subdivision shall not generate more trips than the maximum number allowed from the original lot or result in more driveways between the State highway and subdivided lots than allowed for in the AMP; and

5. Any subsequent lot consolidation does not generate more trips than the sum of the maximum number allowed from each of the original lots or contain more driveways between the State highway and the lot or site than the total number allowed for in the AMP.

(c) The Department, when considering an access application, will:

1. Only issue an access permit consistent with the provisions of the AMP, and require that roadway improvements resulting from access permits issued within the limits of the AMP be consistent with those identified in the AMP; and

2. Deny an access permit if trip generation thresholds or operational levels as identified in the AMP would be exceeded, until improvements identified in the AMP are constructed or an implementation plan is in place.
