Belleville, NJ Zoning Ordinance

[Ord. No. 3134; amended 6-4-2018 by Ord. No. 3495; 7-9-2019 by Ord. No. 3537]

For any lot on which the owner proposes multiple tenant spaces and seeks to erect one or more signs requiring a permit, the owner may submit to the Zoning Official a master signage plan that provides permitted signage options for the tenants and would eliminate the need for each tenant to receive individual permits. The Master Signage plan shall contain the following:

For wall or building signage, provide scaled storefront elevations of the facades that the signage will be located at a scale no less than one inch to 30 feet.

For freestanding signage, provide a site plan with sign location.

Include detail of sign material, illumination, measurement and attachment for review.

List any variances being requested and provide a computation of the maximum total sign area, the maximum area for individual signs, the height of signs and the number of free standing signs permitted and proposed on the lot(s) included in the plan under this ordinance; and

The Master signage plan may include various combinations of permitted signage options, such as a storefront sign band with awning containing logo and window etching, or a storefront sign band with a blade sign and window decal.
