Section 7:50-10.11 - Authorized Pinelands Management Area adjustments

(a) Clustering of development, normally accomplished on-site, may serve similar land conservation goals if off-site lands will be provided with permanent protection and used as a means of transferring development to areas targeted for more intensive development. To this end, the Township of Galloway and City of Egg Harbor City pilot off-site clustering program is authorized as a means to test whether a corridor which includes a long standing and substantial use in close proximity to a designated sewer service area can be developed more intensively than currently permitted through the permanent conservation of off-site lands, which also furthers the land conservation and protection goals of this chapter.

(b) The Township of Galloway and City of Egg Harbor City pilot off-site clustering program shall be accomplished through the municipal adoption of ordinances which redesignate Forest Area and Agricultural Production Area to a Restricted Pinelands Town and Agricultural Production Area to a Restricted Rural Development Area in accordance with the requirements of 7:50-10.11 through 10.13.

(c) The redesignated area shall extend from the existing Pinelands Town boundary along the Bremen Avenue corridor to include all substantial, existing uses and shall not exceed a total of 425 acres in size. That portion of the redesignated area to be located in a Restricted Pinelands Town shall not exceed 290 acres in size.
