Allentown City Zoning Code

§ 28-12.7

Buffer Areas.

[Added 4-20-2021 by Ord. No. 03-2021]
If a subdivision cuts or abuts an area zoned for a use different from the use permitted in the area of the subdivision, the Planning Board shall consider the need to provide a separation to promote the public safety and general welfare of the Borough. The Planning Board may require:
a. 
A buffer strip at least 100 feet in width to be shown on the plat of the subdivision and conveyed to the Borough or maintained in common ownership to be maintained in its natural state or planted with appropriate trees or other buffering materials.
b. 
Such other means of separation as the Planning Board may deem appropriate.
