This Part 2 shall be known and may be cited
as the "Subdivision Ordinance of West Windsor Township."
[Amended 2-25-1985 by Ord. No. 85-1]
The purpose of this Part 2 shall be to provide
rules, regulations and standards to guide land subdivision in West
Windsor Township in order to promote the public health, safety, convenience
and general welfare of said Township and to carry out the objectives
of the Municipal Land Use Law (N.J.S.A. 40:55D-1 et seq.). It shall
be administered to ensure the orderly growth and development, the
conservation, protection and proper use of land and adequate provisions
for circulation utilities and services and the conservation and environmental
protection of all land, water and air resources within the jurisdiction
of West Windsor Township. Application of these subdivision rules,
regulations and standards should also encourage cost-performance methods
and designs to enable the construction of low- and moderate-income
housing without creating an adverse impact on the public health, safety
and general welfare of the Township or for the future residents of
the development.
