B.
No subdivision plat shall be accepted by the county
recording officer until it has been approved by the municipal agency,
as indicated on the instrument by the signatures of the Chairman and
Secretary of the municipal agency, or a certificate has been issued
pursuant to this chapter stipulating that the municipal agency has
failed to act within the prescribed time limit and that an extension
to such time limit has not been consented to by the applicant. The
signatures of the Chairman and the Secretary of the municipal agency
shall not be affixed until the developer has posted the guaranties
required pursuant to this chapter and N.J.S.A. 40:55D-53. If the county
recording officer records any plat without such approval, such recording
shall be deemed null and void, and, upon request of the Borough of
Palisades Park, the plat shall be expunged from the official records.
C.
It shall be the duty of the county recording officer
to notify the municipal agency, in writing, within seven days of the
filing of any plat, identifying such instrument by its title, date
of filing and official number.
Whenever an application for development is made
to the Board of Adjustment, accompanied by an application for subdivision
approval, such application may be referred to any appropriate person
or agency, including the Planning Board, for its report, provided
that such reference shall not extend the time within which the Board
of Adjustment shall act.
A.
Whenever any application shall involve a request for subdivision approval and for variances pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:55D-70c for relief from the lot area requirements for more than one lot, the applicant shall be required to first submit the variance application to the Board of Adjustment in the manner prescribed in Article III of this chapter. Upon receipt of notification by the applicant of approval of the variance request application by the Board of Adjustment or approval by reason of its failure to act within the time limit prescribed, the applicant shall file an application with the Secretary of the Planning Board for preliminary major subdivision approval pursuant to this chapter. The applicant shall thereafter request that the Secretary of the Board of Adjustment forward to the Secretary of the Planning Board the record on the variance application. Said application before the Planning Board shall then be considered as a new application and shall be governed in the same manner in this chapter.
B.
Nothing herein shall limit the power of the Board
of Adjustment to condition the approval of the variance application
upon the obtaining of subdivision approval by the Planning Board.
A.
Revocation of building permit or certificate of occupancy.
In the event of a failure to comply with any condition of site plan
approval, the Building Inspector, on his own initiative or upon recommendation
from the Borough Engineer, may revoke the building permit or certificate
of occupancy, as the case may be, and seek to enjoin the violation
or take such other steps as permitted by law.
B.
Temporary certificate of occupancy. The municipal
agency may authorize the Building Inspector to issue a temporary certificate
of occupancy, not to exceed a maximum of 180 days, if, in the opinion
of the municipal agency or in the opinion of the Borough Engineer,
as may be authorized by the municipal agency resolution, the delay
in meeting the requirements of site plan approval is in the best interests
of the community or the delay was caused by factors beyond the control
of the applicant or the delay will impose a severe hardship on the
applicant. Said temporary certificate of occupancy may be granted
where weather or other similar conditions beyond the control of the
applicant will prevent compliance with the conditions of site plan
approval.
