Single-family detached: 15% of the total tract, of which one-half must be used for active recreation in accordance with § 340-134A below, except for the R-4 Single-Family Residential Overlay Zone, within the I-1 Industrial Zoning District, which shall contain at least 35% of the total tract, of which 4% of the total tract shall be devoted to active recreation.

Single-family attached: 20% of the total tract, of which one-half must be used for active recreation in accordance with § 340-134B below.

Multifamily residential: 25% of the total tract, of which one-half must be used for active recreation in accordance with § 340-134A below.

The following shall be the minimum active recreation requirements for the residential zones, based on the number of approved units.

All active recreation constructed shall be dedicated to a homeowner's association created pursuant to § 340-137, unless the Township specifically agrees to accept dedication pursuant to the developer's request.

All active recreation areas which serve more than 50 dwelling units shall contain paved parking areas and contain provisions for bicycles. The number of parking spaces shall be determined by the Planning Board.

An adequate number of trash receptacles and park benches shall be placed in all active recreation areas.

In order to secure proper improvement and maintenance of all common open space in any proposed development, the landowner shall provide for and establish an organization for the ownership and maintenance of any common open space. Such organization shall not be dissolved nor shall it dispose of any common space, by sale or otherwise (except to an organization conceived and established to own and maintain the common open space), without first offering to dedicate the same to the Township or other governmental agency designated by the Township. The Planning Board shall make findings concerning the operation of the organization for the ownership and maintenance of any common open space. It shall consider the following:

In the event that the organization established to own and maintain common open space, or any successor organization, shall, at any time after establishment of the development, fail to maintain the common open space in reasonable order and condition in accordance with the plan, the Township governing body may serve written notice upon such organization or upon the residents and owners of the development setting forth the manner in which the organization has failed to maintain common open space in reasonable condition, and the said notice shall include a demand that such deficiencies of maintenance be cured within 35 days thereof and shall state the date and place of a hearing thereon, which shall be held within 15 days of the notice. At such hearing, the Township governing body may modify the terms of the original notice as to the deficiencies and may give an extension of time not to exceed 65 days within which they shall be cured. If the deficiencies set forth in the original notice or in the modifications thereof shall not be cured within the said 35 days or any extension thereon, the Township governing body, in order to preserve the taxable values of the properties within the development and to prevent the common open space from being a public nuisance, may enter upon said common open space and maintain the same for a period of one year. Said entry and maintenance shall not vest in the public any rights to use the common open space except when the same is voluntarily dedicated to the public by the residents and owners. Before the expiration of said year, the Township governing body shall, upon its initiative or upon the request of the organization therefor responsible for the maintenance of the common open space, call a public hearing upon 15 days' written notice to such organization or to the residents and to the owners of the development, to be held by the Township governing body, at which hearing such organization, or the residents and owners of the development, shall show cause why such maintenance by the Township shall not, at the election of the Township governing body, continue for a succeeding year. If the Township governing body shall determine that such organization is ready and able to maintain said common open space in reasonable condition, the Township governing body may, at its discretion, continue to maintain said common open space during the next succeeding year, subject to a similar hearing and determination in each year thereafter. The decision of the Township governing body in any such case shall constitute a final administrative decision subject to judicial review.

The cost of such maintenance by the Township shall be assessed ratably against the properties within the development that have a right of enjoyment of the properties. The Township, at the time of entering upon said common open space for the purpose of maintenance, shall file a notice of such lien in the office of the County Clerk upon the properties affected by such lien within the development.

All recreation areas and facilities shall be designated in accordance with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's publication, Administration Guidelines: Barrier Free Design Standard for Parks and Recreation Facilities.

All recreation areas and facilities shall be located and planned so as not to create a nuisance for adjacent dwelling units.

To the extent feasible, all recreation areas and facilities shall be located so as to be accessible to the majority of Township residents unless those areas are to be owned and maintained by a private association for the use by the members of said association.

All recreation areas and facilities shall be properly fenced or screened as appropriate to protect the use and enjoyment of adjacent residences or residential uses.

All recreation areas and facilities designed as part of a residential development shall meet with the requirements specified in this article.
