Section 7:7-4.1 - Permit-by-rule 1 - expansion of a single-family home or duplex

1. Is not proposed on a beach, dune, or wetland;

2. Meets the requirements of 7:7-9.25; and

3. Does not exceed a cumulative surface area of 400 square feet on the property constructed after July 19, 1994. For example, a 200 square foot expansion of a single family home or duplex could be authorized under this permit-by-rule and an additional 200 square foot expansion could later be authorized under this permit-by-rule, since the cumulative footprint of the development for both expansions would not exceed 400 square feet on the property. However, a property on which a 300-square-foot expansion was already constructed pursuant to a permit-by-rule would not be eligible for another permit-by-rule subsequently for an additional 200-square-foot expansion since the cumulative total footprint of development for both expansions would exceed 400 square feet.
