Architecture and Construction. From a design and construction standpoint, a single family attached residence structure has two basic options.

Utilities. Every single family attached residential unit must be connected to the public sanitary sewer and water systems as approved by the Borough Engineer. All utilities shall be installed underground. Every dwelling unit shall be serviced by a fire hydrant within 500 feet of the unit which hydrant shall be connected to a six-inch main.

A storage area having a minimum floor area of 48 square feet, and having both width and length of at least four feet may be located in the basement, cellar, or garage serving the unit or in a structure with exterior access attached to the unit. If in a garage, the space shall be located beyond an area for vehicle parking having minimum dimensions of nine feet in width and 18 feet in length.

Fees. At the time of filing an application for Site Plan Approval, the applicant will file with the Borough Clerk a fee of $75 per dwelling unit within the project. The fees shall be used to defray the cost of processing the application. No part of the application fee is refundable. At such time as the Site Plan is approved by the Planning Board but prior to the issuance of a Building Permit, the applicant shall file with the Borough Clerk an inspection fee equal to or not less than 5% of the estimated costs of all improvements on site exclusive of the dwelling structures. The fee shall be determined by the Borough Engineer and will be used to defray any engineering inspections made by the Borough. Any part of the fee that is not used as above outlined will be returned to the developer after approval by the Borough Council.

Any easements as required by the Planning Board, after review by the Borough Engineer, shall be shown on the Site Plan and the easements shall be given to the Borough at such time as the Site Plan is approved.
