If the applicant can clearly demonstrate that because of peculiar conditions pertaining to his land the literal enforcement of one or more of these regulations is impracticable or will exact undue hardship, the Planning Board may permit such variance or variances as may be reasonable and within the general purposes and scope of the rules, regulations and standards established by this chapter.

Copies of this chapter shall be filed with the County Clerk, the County Planning Board and the Borough Clerk and shall be made available to any person desiring a copy upon the payment of a fee established by the governing body.

Except as may be provided by New Jersey statute or elsewhere in this chapter, each and every violation of the provisions of this chapter shall be punishable by a fine not to exceed $2,000, by imprisonment in the county jail for a term not to exceed 90 days and/or a period of community service not to exceed 90 days, at the discretion of the Municipal Court. Each day the violation shall continue after a notice and a reasonable opportunity to correct or remedy the violation shall constitute a separate violation. In the event the court wishes to impose a fine in an amount greater than $1,250 upon an owner of real property for violations of housing or zoning codes of the Borough, then and in that event a thirty-day grace period shall be provided to said owner in order to cure or abate the violative condition, and said owner shall also be afforded an opportunity for a hearing before a court of competent jurisdiction for an independent determination concerning said violation. Subsequent to the expiration of the thirty-day period, a fine greater than $1,250 may be imposed if a court has not determined otherwise or, upon reinspection of the property the court determines that the abatement has not been substantially completed.
