Application fees for Municipal Planning / Zoning Board approvals which provide affordable housing units shall be based on the non-income restricted units only. Example of the Affordable Housing, Bonus Density, Application Fees and Pinelands Development Credit Requirements. As an example, if a residential developer seeks to develop on ten (10) acres in the RG-5 Zone the following would apply: Units permitted = 75 units. Number of affordable units required = 15 units. Units for which fees and Pinelands Development Credits are calculated = 60 market rate units. Application Fees Required: For Subdivisions: For Site Plans: Preliminary Major Subdivision: $400 + 60 lots @ $30 / lot = $2,200.00. Final Major Subdivision: $400 + 60 lots @ $30 / lot = $2,200.00. Preliminary Major Site Plan: $1,000 + 60 units @ $25 / unit = $2,500.00. Final Major Site Plan: 50% of preliminary application fees = $1,250.00.

Pinelands Development Credits Required: 25% of 60 market rate units = 15 units or 3.75 PDCs. F. General Provisions for Constructing Affordable Units. (1) Affordable housing units being constructed on-site shall be in conformance with the Fair Housing Act, all applicable COAH and UHAC regulations, the Township s Affordable Housing Ordinance, applicable settlement or development agreements, and any applicable Court Orders (including any JOR orders and JOR condition follow up orders).
