B.Â
Within each zoning district, the uses permitted, whether
as principal, conditional or accessory uses, shall only be those uses
listed for the particular district.
A.Â
Interpretation of boundaries. Zoning district boundary lines are intended to follow street center lines, railroad rights-of-way, streams and lot or property lines as they exist on lots of record at the time of enactment of this chapter unless otherwise indicated by dimensions on the Zoning Map. Any dimensions shown shall be in feet and measured horizontally and, when measured from a street, shall be measured from the street right-of-way line even if the center line of that street is used for the location of a zoning district line. The exact location of any disputed zoning district boundary line shall be determined by the Board of Adjustment. The zoning standards, controls and designations apply to every structure, lot and use within each district, and the district lines extend vertically in both directions from ground level.
B.Â
Division of a lot in single ownership. Where a zoning
district boundary line divides a lot other than by following a stream
or street, any use permitted in either district may be extended not
more than 20 feet into the adjacent district. A use permitted in the
zoning district so extended shall thereafter be a permitted use in
the extended area. A zoning district line, however, shall be altered
only once by utilizing this section of this chapter, after which the
lot use shall be governed by the regulations of the zoning district
in which it is located after the zoning district boundary line adjustment.
C.Â
The boundaries of all districts are hereby established by reference to the Zoning Map prepared by Remington and Vernick Engineers and dated June 28, 2021, which map is hereby incorporated and adopted as part of this chapter and which map shall be known as the " Zoning Map of Evesham Township," as amended.
[Amended 9-15-2009 by Ord. No. 12-9-2009; 12-15-2009 by Ord. No.
15-12-2009; 7-13-2010 by Ord. No. 16-7-2010; 5-17-2011 by Ord. No. 15-6-2011; 8-11-2021 by Ord. No. 30-8-2021]
D.Â
All words, abbreviations, figures, symbols and other data appearing on said Zoning Map at the time of the adoption of this chapter, and the amendments and supplements thereto as adopted, constitute a part of said Map. Figures indicating the number of feet appearing thereon between a road, street or avenue and the boundary line of a district mean that the boundary line of the district at such location runs parallel with the center line of the road, street or avenue at the distance therefrom indicated by the number of feet marked. District boundary lines in roads, streets, avenues or rights-of-way extend along the center lines thereof.

[Added 12-15-2009 by Ord. No. 15-12-2009]
A.Â
Purpose. The purpose of the Municipal Center Overlay District is
to provide a framework for the continued development of mutually supportive
facilities to serve the Evesham Township community in the vicinity
of the existing municipal complex. The properties within the Municipal
Center Overlay should be developed with consideration for the overlay
zone as a whole, in order to promote the evolution of the area as
an interconnected and complimentary activity node. The Municipal Center
Overlay is intended to enhance opportunities for complimentary recreational
and community facilities, semipublic, and neighborhood commercial
and service uses – in order to increase efficiency, maximize
value, and enhance the quality of experience for the Township's residents,
employees and visitors. The Municipal Center Overlay District retains
the underlying base zoning, but provides opportunities for alternative
uses in specific areas when specific standards are met and the design
guidelines are adhered to.
B.Â
Base zoning. Unless otherwise specified, the base zoning district
standards apply to all properties within the Municipal Center Overlay.
Properties within the Municipal Center Overlay are within the RG-2,
INS and OP Zoning Districts.
C.Â
Overall design within the Municipal Center Overlay.
(1)Â
Sidewalks are required along all streets, along building frontages
and along access driveways. Sidewalks must also be designed to provide
logical connection points with adjacent properties and site plans
must demonstrate how the site fits into the overall Municipal Center
context.
(2)Â
Crosswalks at intersections and at points where pedestrian traffic
is expected must be constructed with textured pavement.
(3)Â
Driveways must be designed to interconnect with, or provide
the potential to connect with adjacent properties in order to promote
connectivity, limit the number of curb cuts along county roads, encourage
people to combine vehicle trips, provide a safe and efficient internal
circulation plan, and relieve congestion on the roadways.
(4)Â
Decorative, pedestrian scaled light standards a maximum of 15
feet in height should be utilized within parking areas and along access
drives consistent with the Township's preferred design.
(5)Â
Bicycle racks must be incorporated into site plans in a safe
and convenient location.
(6)Â
Outdoor seating areas and pavilions should be incorporated into
site design in order to encourage informal interaction and to invite
people to stay at the municipal center between activities.
(7)Â
Coordinated way-finding signage is recommended to direct visitors
to their destination.
(8)Â
Measures to enhance sustainability should be considered in planning
each site; such as using water and energy efficiently, using sustainable
materials, installing solar panels to generate power, reducing waste,
minimizing impacts on the natural environment, and ensuring a healthy
indoor environment.
(9)Â
Signs within the Municipal Center Overlay shall conform to the requirements of § 160-75, in addition to the following (the requirements below supersede when there is a conflict.):
(a)Â
All permitted freestanding signs shall be monument or hanging
signs, no more than six feet in height.
(b)Â
Freestanding signs may not exceed 24 square feet in area.
(c)Â
All illuminated signs shall be externally illuminated with a
shielded light source; internally illuminated sign boxes and neon
lighting are not permitted.
(d)Â
Facade signs shall be in accordance with the permitted signs
in the underlying zone.
(e)Â
Freestanding and ground signs shall have a landscaped area around
the base. The landscaped area shall be a minimum of 1.5 times the
area of the sign. For example, a twenty-four-square-foot sign must
have a minimum thirty-six-square-foot landscaped area at the base

(4)Â
Affordable housing requirement.
[Amended 3-17-2015 by Ord. No. 3-3-2015]
(a)Â
Development consisting solely of single-family detached homes shall not require the on-site production of affordable housing with a mandatory set-aside but shall require the payment of affordable housing development fees as required by Township Code § 161-3.
(b)Â
Development consisting solely of attached/townhouse units. Ten
percent of all attached/townhouse units constructed pursuant to the
MDR Overlay standards shall be set-aside and reserved for low- and
moderate-income households. In recognition of the challenges associated
with creating an inclusionary development that primarily consists
of market rate townhouses, the permitted density is increased by 5%
to enable on-site incorporation of the affordable housing requirement.
The affordable housing obligation shall be based on the proposed number
of housing units permitted before applying the increase in density.
Example: The base permitted density for townhouses is 2.3 units/acre.
For a thirty-acre site, a maximum of 69 units are permitted. The ten-percent
affordable housing set-aside is 6.9 (7) units. In support of the on-site
provision of the affordable units, the total density may be increased
to 2.42 units per acre (a five-percent increase). When a fraction
of an affordable unit of 0.5 or less is required, the obligation shall
be rounded down. When a fraction of an affordable unit of 0.6 or more
is required, the obligation shall be rounded up. All affordable units
constructed on site shall strictly conform with COAH's rules and the
requirements of the Township's Fair Share Plan ordinances, including,
but not limited to, phasing, bedroom mix, 50-50 split, affirmative
marketing, controls on affordability, etc.
(c)Â
In developments containing a mix of both single-family detached housing which does not require the on-site production of affordable housing and attached multifamily housing (townhouses, condominiums or apartment flats) which requires on-site affordable housing production, the area of the multifamily component shall be used in calculating density and the affordable housing set-aside pursuant to § 160-63.1E(4) of the Code. Development fees as required by § 161-3 of the Code shall be paid for the homes constructed in the single-family detached component of the project.
(d)Â
The on-site production of affordable housing is required in
projects proposing multifamily housing, and the Township shall not
accept a payment in lieu thereof.
F.Â
Townhouse performance requirements.
(1)Â
The front facades of townhouses must be staggered a minimum
of two feet so that no more than two units in a row are on the same
linear plane.

all residential units in a townhouse development.
(6)Â
Where the side of a residential unit faces a street, such as
an end unit on a curve or a corner, the side elevation must have architectural
details similar to the front elevation to respond to the street and
add character to the development. Such facade treatments may include
bay windows, a wrap-around porch, chimneys, building materials such
as brick or stone.
(7)Â
For townhouses, in addition to RSIS parking requirements for
the residential units, additional guest parking is required to accommodate
a minimum of 0.33 vehicle per residential unit. The shared parking
may be on street or in a common parking lot area.

that in a planned commercial development or shopping center with a
gross floor area of 250,000 square feet or more, buildings or freestanding
structures may have a height of 55 feet, subject to the following
provisions:
(a)Â
The structure or building with the increased
height shall be designed as an architectural feature intended to provide
additional design interest or focus to the development. Placement
at the end of view corridors is encouraged.
(b)Â
The area of increased height may be a decorative
freestanding structure not intended for human occupancy, such as a
clock tower, or it may be one or more buildings within the development.
(c)Â
If the area of increased height is a building
or a portion of a building, the gross floor area of all buildings
containing such areas of increased height shall not constitute more
than 20% of total gross floor area of the development.
(d)Â
All buildings containing areas of increased
height shall have a setback from the nearest property line equal to
at least three times the maximum building height.
(5)Â
Minimum building setback from another freestanding

the building is less than 400 square feet, in which case it may be
as close as 25 feet from a residential use or zone.
F.Â
Design standards. The design of buildings and adjacent
landscaping shall be governed by the following criteria:
(1)Â
Architectural style of the development shall be designed
to avoid the massive scale and uniform impersonal appearances of a
"big box" commercial center through facade ornamentation, building
offsets, window treatments, variation in rooflines, entry treatments
and upgraded building materials.
(a)Â
Building facades greater than 100 feet in length,
including separate buildings that are attached, shall have recesses
or projections of at least four feet extending over at least 20% of
the length of the facade. There shall be no uninterrupted length of
facade which exceeds 100 feet.
(b)Â
Smaller retail stores with individual entrances
can help to break up a long facade. Retail stores or restaurants of
less than 25,000 square feet shall have glass facades between the
height of three and eight feet for no less than 60% of the horizontal
length of the building facade.
(c)Â
Each building facade, including separate buildings
which are attached, exceeding 100 feet in length shall have clearly
defined, highly visible customer entrances that include at least three
of the following: canopies or porticos; overhangs; recesses/projections;
arcades; raised cornice parapets over the door; peaked roof forms;
arches; outdoor patios; display windows; architectural details such
as tile work and moldings which are integrated into the building structure
and design; integral planters or wing walls than incorporate landscaped
areas and/or places for sitting. Weather protection features such
as awnings or arcades are required to extend over and provide cover
within 30 feet of all customer entrances.
(d)Â
Variations in rooflines shall be used to screen
HVAC equipment and to provide interest and reduce the scale of large
buildings. Roofs should have at least two of the following features:
parapets to conceal flat roofs and equipment; overhanging eaves of
at least three feet; sloping roofs with an average slope of between
3:1 and 1:1 that do not exceed the average height of the supporting
walls; three or more roof slope planes. As per the definition of height
of building or structure, rooftop equipment or the materials used
to screen such equipment shall be included in determining the total
height for the building.
(e)Â
Exterior building materials and colors contribute
significantly to the visual impact of a building. The exterior building
skin shall be composed of one dominant facing material and not more
than two additional materials. The dominant material shall comprise
60% or greater of each building elevation.
(f)Â
Dominant facade colors must be low reflectance,
subtle, neutral, or earth-toned. The use of high-intensity colors,
metallic colors and black is prohibited. Building trim and accents
may feature brighter colors. Neon tube lighting may not be used for
building trim or accent.
G.Â
Outdoor storage. The use of outdoor areas for any type of storage is permitted as a conditional use and only in accordance with the standards in Chapter 161, Zoning Modifications and Additional Requirements. The use of semitrailers, metal storage or shipping containers or temporary storage buildings for temporary storage or during a loading or unloading procedure, is permitted only in designated loading areas for no more than seven days, unless an application for approval of a zoning permit is approved. An approved permit shall be valid for no more than 30 days.
[Added 7-13-2010 by Ord. No. 16-7-2010]
A.Â
Purpose. The purpose of the Evesham Crossroads Overlay district is
to provide a framework for the development and redevelopment of primarily
commercial properties in the vicinity of the Evesham Crossroads at
the intersection of State Highway Routes 70 and 73 consistent with
the 2010 Master Plan recommendations and the Evesham 2020 Vision Plan.
The NJDOT's replacement of the Marlton Circle with an intersection,
overpass, and on and off ramps will alter the form and function of
this centrally located and heavily travelled area in Evesham. The
Evesham Crossroads Overlay is intended to encourage the transformation
of underutilized and outdated commercial properties along the Route
70 and Route 73 corridors, to support development and redevelopment
that makes efficient use of land and resources, that promotes development
that integrates the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists,
that creates a viable streetscape and carries a unified design theme,
and that responds to the adjacent properties. It is also the intent
of the Evesham Crossroads Overlay to establish landmark buildings
and civic art at the immediate crossroads of Routes 70 and 73. The
photographs and illustrations in the Evesham 2020 Vision Plan should
be utilized for reference to convey the Township's design intentions
and to guide development within the Evesham Crossroads Overlay district.
B.Â
Base zoning. The base zoning district standards shall continue to
apply to all existing development within the Evesham Crossroads Overlay.
Any property within the EVCO District that is developed, redeveloped
or expanded, including additions to existing principal structures,
new structures, and site alterations (such as parking lot expansions,
or improvements, redesign of parking areas, alterations to site access,
and new signs) shall be regulated by the standards set forth for the
EVCO.

G.Â
Overall design within the Evesham Crossroads Overlay. Developers
and site designers should refer to the Evesham 2020 Vision Plan for
visual representations of the design intentions for the Evesham Crossroads
Overlay, and should consult with the Township to coordinate and conceptualize
the site's role in the overall Vision Plan. A cohesive design is required
for all parcels. All sites shall be planned and designed for the entirety
of the tract. Phased implementation may be permitted at the discretion
of and with specific approval by the Planning Board.
[Amended 8-6-2013 by Ord. No. 23-8-2013]
(1)Â
Multistory buildings are encouraged throughout the Evesham Crossroads
Area, as the EVCO is the center of Evesham's urban-rural transect,
