Section 7:50-5.41 - Purpose

If land use and development of the Pinelands is concentrated in Regional Growth Areas, the Pinelands as a region can tolerate additional development without damaging the Pinelands environment. It is the purpose of this Part to facilitate such patterns of growth and development by providing land-owners in the Preservation Area District, Special Agricultural Production Areas, and Agricultural Production Areas with an opportunity to secure an additional beneficial use of their land without the risk of damaging the essential ecological character of the Pinelands.
