Current through L. 2024, c. 80.
Section 5:10A-13 - Submission of applications for subdivision, site plan, or building permit
a. Pursuant to the commission's jurisdiction established in section 12 of P.L. 2015, c. 19(C.5:10A-12), each application for a subdivision, site plan, or building permit shall be submitted to the commission for review and, when appropriate, approval, prior to any determination by the applicable local constituent municipal approving authority. Commission approval of any subdivision application shall be limited by, and based upon, the rules, regulations, and standards in a resolution adopted by the commission. The constituent municipal approval authority shall defer taking final action on a subdivision application until receipt of the commission report thereon. The commission shall report to the municipal authority within 45 days from the date of receipt of the application. If the commission fails to report to the municipal approving authority within the 45-day period, the subdivision application shall be deemed to have been approved by the commission unless, by mutual agreement between the commission and municipal approving authority, with approval of the applicant, the 45-day period shall be extended for an additional 45-day period, and any such extension shall so extend the time within which a municipal approving authority shall be required by law to act thereon.
b. The commission shall review each subdivision plan and building permit application and withhold approval if an application does not meet the requirements adopted by the commission. In the event of the withholding of approval or the disapproval of any such application, the reasons for such action shall be set forth in writing, and a copy thereof shall be forwarded to the applicant and the municipality.
