[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Committee of the Township
of Knowlton by Ord. No. 82-10 (Ch.
XV of the Revised General Ordinances). Amendments noted where applicable.]
The Legislature of the State of New Jersey has in the New Jersey
Statutes delegated the responsibility to local government units to
adopt regulations designed to promote the public health, safety and
general welfare of its citizenry. Therefore, the Township Committee
of Knowlton Township, New Jersey, does ordain as follows.
A.
The flood hazard areas of Knowlton Township are subject to periodic
inundation which results in loss of life, property, health and safety
hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental services, extraordinary
public expenditures for flood protection and relief and impairment
of the tax base, all of which adversely affect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
B.
These flood losses are caused by the cumulative effect of obstructions
in areas of special flood hazard, causing increases in flood heights
and velocities, and by the occupancy in flood hazard areas by uses
vulnerable to floods or hazardous to other lands which are inadequately
elevated, floodproofed or otherwise protected from flood damages.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
It is the purpose of this chapter to promote the public health,
safety and general welfare and to minimize public and private losses
due to flood conditions in specific areas by provisions designed to:
A.
Protect human life and health.
B.
Minimize expenditure of public money for costly flood control projects.
C.
Minimize the need for rescue and relief efforts associated with flooding
and generally undertaken at the expense of the general public.
D.
Minimize prolonged business interruptions.
E.
Minimize damage to public facilities and utilities, such as
water and gas mains, electric, telephone and sewer lines, streets
and bridges, located in areas of special flood hazard.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
F.
Help maintain a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and
development of areas of special flood hazard in such a manner as to
minimize future flood-blight areas.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
G.
Ensure that potential home buyers are notified that property is in
an area of special flood hazard.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
H.
Ensure
that those who occupy areas of special flood hazard assume responsibility
for their actions.
[Added 9-12-2011 by Ord.
No. 11-11]
In order to accomplish its purposes, this chapter uses the following
methods:
A.
Restrict or prohibit uses which are dangerous
to health, safety and property due to water or erosion hazards or
which result in damaging increases in erosion or in flood heights
or velocities.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
B.
Require that uses vulnerable to floods, including facilities which
serve such uses, be protected against flood damage at the time of
initial construction.
C.
Control the alteration of natural floodplains, stream channels and
natural protective barriers which are involved in the accommodation
of floodwaters.
D.
Control filling, grading, dredging and other development which may
increase flood damage.
E.
Prevent or regulate the construction of flood barriers which will
unnaturally divert floodwaters or which may increase flood hazards
to other lands.
[Amended by Ord. No. 87-7]

extended, converted or altered without full compliance with the terms
of this chapter and other applicable regulations. Violation of the
provisions of this chapter by failure to comply with any of its requirements
(including violations of conditions and safeguards established in
connection with conditions) shall constitute a misdemeanor. Any person
who violates this chapter or fails to comply with any of its requirements
shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined not more than $500 or imprisoned
for not more than 60 days, or both, for each violation, and in addition
shall pay all costs and expenses involved in the case. Nothing herein
contained shall prevent Knowlton Township from taking such other lawful
action as is necessary to prevent or remedy any violation.
This chapter is not intended to repeal, abrogate or impair any
existing easements, covenants or deed restrictions. However, where
this chapter and another ordinance, easement, covenant or deed restriction
conflict or overlap, whichever imposes the more stringent restrictions
shall prevail.
In the interpretation and application of this chapter, all provisions
shall be:
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
The degree of flood protection required
by this chapter is considered reasonable for regulatory purposes and
is based on scientific and engineering considerations. Larger floods
can and will occur on rare occasions. Flood heights may be increased
by man-made or natural causes. This chapter does not imply land outside
the areas of special flood hazards or uses permitted within such areas
will be free from flooding or flood damages. This chapter shall not
create liability on the part of Knowlton Township or by any officer
or employee thereof, or Federal Insurance Administration, for any
flood damages that result from reliance on this chapter or any administrative
decision lawfully made thereunder.
A.
Establishment of development permit. A development permit shall be obtained before construction of development begins, including placement of manufactured homes, within any area of special flood hazard established in § 105-7. Application for a development permit shall be made to the Township Engineer on forms furnished by him and may include, but not be limited to, the following plans, in duplicate, drawn to scale, showing the nature, location, dimensions and elevations of the area in question; existing or proposed structures, fill, storage of materials and drainage facilities; and the location of the foregoing.

applicable.
[6]
The availability of alternative locations, not subject to flooding
or erosion damage, for the proposed use.
[7]
The compatibility of the proposed use with existing and anticipated
development.
[8]
The relationship of the proposed use to the Comprehensive Plan
and Floodplain Management Program for that area.
[9]
The safety of access to the property in times of flood for ordinary
and emergency vehicles.
[10]
The expected heights, velocity, duration, rate
of rise and sediment transport of the floodwaters, and the effect
of wave actions, if applicable, expected at the site.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
[11]
The costs of providing governmental services during
and after flood conditions, including maintenance and repair of public
utilities and facilities, such as sewer, gas, electrical and water
systems, and streets and bridges.
(e)
Upon consideration of the factors listed above and the purposes
of this chapter, the Township Committee may attach such conditions
to the granting of variances as it deems necessary to further the
purposes of this chapter.
(f)
The Township Engineer shall maintain the records of all appeal
actions, including technical information, and report any variances
to the Federal Insurance Administration upon request.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
(2)
Conditions for variances.
(a)
Generally, variances may be issued for new construction and
substantial improvements to be erected on a lot of 1/2 acre or less
in size contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures
constructed below the base flood level, provided that items D(1)(d)[1]
through [11] above have been fully considered. As the lot size increases
beyond the 1/2 acre, the technical justification required for issuing
the variance increases.
(b)
Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of
historic structures upon a determination that the proposed repair
or rehabilitation will not preclude the structure's continued
designation as an historic structure and the variance is the minimum
necessary to preserve the historic character and design of the structure.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
(c)
Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway
if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would
result.
(d)
Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the
variance is the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to
afford relief.
(e)
Variances shall only be issued upon:
[1]
A showing of good and sufficient cause;
[2]
A determination that failure to grant the variance would result
in exceptional hardship to the applicant; and
[3]
A determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the public as identified in Subsection D(1)(d), or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances.
(f)
Any applicant to whom a variance is granted shall be given written
notice that the structure will be permitted to be built with a lowest
flood elevation below the base flood elevation, and that the cost
of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting
from the reduced lowest floor elevation.
[Amended by Ord. No. 87-7]
A.
General standards. In all areas of special flood hazards, the following
provisions are required:
(1)
Anchoring.
(a)
All new construction and substantial improvements shall be anchored
to prevent flotation, collapse or lateral movement of the structure.
(b)
All manufactured homes shall be anchored to resist flotation,
collapse or lateral movement. Methods of anchoring may include, but
are not to be limited to, use of over-the-top or frame ties to ground
anchors. This requirement is in addition to applicable state and local
anchoring requirements for resisting wind forces.

proposals and other proposed development which is greater than the
lesser of 50 lots or five acres.
(e)
Enclosure openings. For all new construction and substantial
improvements, fully enclosed areas below the lowest floor that are
subject to flooding shall be designed to automatically equalize hydrostatic
flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit
of floodwaters. Designs for meeting this requirement must either be
certified by a registered professional engineer or architect or must
meet or exceed the following minimum criteria: A minimum of two openings
having a total net area of not less than one square inch for every
square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding shall be provided.
The bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one foot above-grade.
Openings may be equipped with screens, louvers or other coverings
or devices, provided that they permit the automatic entry and exit
of floodwaters.
(5)

No. 11-11]
B.
Specific standards. In all areas of special flood hazards where base flood elevation data has been provided as set forth in § 105-7, Basis for establishing areas of special flood hazard, or § 105-12C(3), Use of other base flood data, the following standards are required:
(1)
Residential construction. New construction or
substantial improvement of any residential structure shall:
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
(a)
Have the lowest floor, including basement together with the
attendant utilities and sanitary facilities, elevated one foot above
the base flood elevation;
(b)
Within any AO Zone on the Township's FIRM, all new construction
and substantial improvement of any residential structure shall have
the lowest floor, including basement, elevated above the highest adjacent
grade at least as high as the depth number specified in feet (at least
two feet if no depth number is specified); and require adequate drainage
paths around structures on slopes to guide floodwaters around and
away from proposed structures.
(2)
Nonresidential construction. New construction
or substantial improvement of any commercial, industrial or other
nonresidential structure shall have the lowest floor, including basement
together with attendant utilities and sanitary facilities, either:
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
(a)
Elevated one foot above the base flood elevation; and within any
AO Zone on the municipality's DFIRM require that all new construction
and substantial improvement of any commercial, industrial or other
nonresidential structure shall have the lowest floor, including basement,
elevated above the highest adjacent grade at least as high as the
depth number specified in feet (at least two feet if no depth number
is specified); and require adequate drainage paths around structures
on slopes to guide floodwaters around and away from proposed structures;
or
(b)
Be floodproofed so that below the base flood level plus one foot the structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water; have structural components with the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and effects of buoyancy; and be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect that the design and methods of construction are in accordance with accepted standards of practice for meeting the applicable provisions of this subsection. Such certification shall be provided to the official as set forth in § 105-12C(4)(b).
C.
Floodways. Located within areas of special flood hazard established in § 105-7 are areas designated as floodways. Since the floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of floodwaters which carry debris, potential projectiles and erosion potential, the following provisions apply:
(1)
Prohibit encroachments, including fill, new construction, substantial
improvements and other development, unless a technical evaluation
demonstrates that encroachments shall not result in any increase in
flood levels during the occurrence of the base flood discharge.
(2)
If Subsection C(1) above is satisfied, all new construction and substantial improvements shall comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions of this section.
(3)
Prohibit the placement of any manufactured homes, except in an existing
manufactured home park or existing manufactured home subdivision.
(4)
In all areas of special flood hazard in which
base flood elevation data has been provided and no floodway has been
designated, the cumulative effect of any proposed development, when
combined with all other existing and anticipated development, shall
not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than
0.2 foot.
[Amended 9-12-2011 by Ord. No. 11-11]
