Net residential density - number of units contemplated. Net residential densities shall be as established by following the bulk, area and design standards set forth below. However, no more than 320 units shall be approved in a WFD/AH development on the lands designated in this article.

Residential bulk and area requirements shall be as follows:

Multifamily accessory uses bulk requirements shall be as follows:

Separate lot or lots for the marina area. The developer may elect to create a separate lot or lots which shall be devoted exclusively for all uses in the marina area. However, for the purpose of all site plan review procedures, determination of residential density and coverage requirements, as set forth in this chapter, the entire parcel, including the marina area, shall be considered a single entity.

Design requirements.

Amount of Mt. Laurel contribution. A contribution in the form of either on-site Mt. Laurel housing units or contribution to a Delanco housing trust fund shall be required. The total number of Mt. Laurel dwellings, either built on site or in the form of economic contributions, shall be equal to 16% of the gross number of residential units in the development to be constructed on-site as set forth in Subsection C(2) below.

On-site and off-site Mt. Laurel requirements. Eleven percent of the total number of residential units to be constructed in the residential portion of the development, but no more than 34 units, shall be Mt. Laurel housing units provided on site in accordance with current COAH requirements as to size, distribution and affordability of such Mt. Laurel units. The developer shall provide for the maximum number of these units as age-restricted for senior citizens as is permitted by COAH regulations. The developer shall also make a cash contribution to a local housing trust fund for rehabilitation of housing in Delanco which meets COAH requirements. Such cash contribution shall be $10,000 per unit payable on a pro rata basis as certificates of occupancy are given for on-site conventional units. The total number of units shall be 5% of the total number of residential units to be constructed on the residential portion of the development, but no more than 13 units. Thus, for example, assuming 320 residential units may be built, 34 on-site affordable units shall be built (note 11% would be 35 but the ceiling is 34) and a one-hundred-thirty-thousand-dollar ($10,000 times 13 units; note 5% would be 16, but the ceiling is 13) cash contribution made for off-site rehabilitation of Mt. Laurel qualified housing. There would be 286 conventional units built on-site.

Management of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation of units shall be managed and undertaken by the Burlington County Office of Community Development or, if not available, then the Township Administrator.

All residential buildings shall be oriented to the tract and to other buildings so as to preserve open vistas to the Delaware River to take advantage of the waterfront setting, to the maximum extent feasible, by clustering with orientation of the project to the waterfront and otherwise providing the residents and public with reminders of the proximity of the waterfront.

No more than five freestanding dwelling units should be placed in a row with the same building setback from a straight street line.

Each detached dwelling unit and multiple dwelling units shall have a compatible architectural theme with variations in design to provide attractiveness to the development.

Multifamily dwelling units, where possible, should be grouped in clusters. Private parking areas should be located near dwelling unit entrances or may be provided underneath the building. Any outdoor living areas or patios should adjoin open space or paths leading to open space. Dwelling units should not front on a through street. Screening of such outdoor living areas may be accomplished with plant materials, masonry walls or wood fencing. Architectural elements such as masonry walls and fences shall be compatible in both style and materials with the dwelling unit of which it is part.

Where private garages are provided, constructed either as part of a dwelling unit or on individual lots, the following guidelines shall be followed:

Waterfront residential areas:

Water-related recreational and marina land uses shall:

Open space requirements: No less than 40% of the upland area on the residential portion of the development shall be pervious surface. This shall not include parking areas with a pervious surface, if such surfaces are approved by the appropriate Board. “Upland area,” for the purposes of this calculation, shall include all lands within the boundary of the development as surveyed by a licensed New Jersey surveyor excluding lands devoted to a marina or marine-related uses, surface water and/or wetlands (exclusive of wetland buffers).

Off-site active recreation contribution. A financial contribution of $500 per non-low- or moderate-income unit shall be payable on receipt of each certificate of occupancy. This figure shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the cost of on-site active recreation facilities excluding the marina, marine-related facilities, clubhouse and pool. The cost shall be determined by the Township Engineer, calculated by the normal calculation done when assessing the cost of a similar improvement if to be built off site and if bonding were required. In no event shall the per-unit contribution be less than $300, regardless of the cost of on-site active recreation facilities.

All fences shall be maintained at a minimum thirty-five-percent transparency, except fences specifically intended for screening.

Fences shall not exceed four feet in height unless utilized for security or screening purposes, in which case said fence may not exceed seven feet in height. No fences shall be constructed within the front yard setback.

No sign shall be placed or maintained within the WFD/AH Districts except as herein provided. Traffic and other regulatory signs, legal notices and the like shall be placed without review and permit.

Types of signs prohibited. The following types of signs are specifically prohibited:

Informational and regulatory signs. The following types of signs displayed for the direction, safety, convenience or information of the public are permitted:
