[Added 4-10-1979 by Ord. No. 79:6]
A.
In accordance with N.J.S.A. 40:55D-7, the following
classes of subdivisions are exempt from the requirements of local
municipal approval as established by law:
(1)
Divisions of land found by the Planning Board or Subdivision
Committee thereof, appointed by the Chairman, to be for agricultural
purposes where all resulting parcels are five acres or larger in size.
(2)
Divisions of property by testamentary or intestate
provisions.
(3)
Divisions of property upon court order.
(4)
Conveyances so as to combine existing lots by deed
or other instrument.
B.
In all cases involving such exempted divisions, the
Planning Board Chairman and the Township Clerk shall certify the exemption
on the plat, deed or instrument to be filed with the county recording
officer.
The rules, regulations and standards contained
in this chapter shall be deemed to be the minimum requirements for
the protection of the public health, safety and welfare of the people
of the Township of Parsippany-Troy Hills. Every action taken by the
Planning Board under the provisions of this chapter shall give primary
consideration to the interest and welfare of the entire community.
However, if the developer can clearly demonstrate that, because of
peculiar conditions pertaining to his land, the literal enforcement
of any of the provisions of this chapter relating to the design and
layout of the development is impracticable or would result in undue
hardship, the Planning Board may permit such variation in the application
thereof as may be reasonable and within the general purpose and intent
of this chapter.
