Purpose. The CR Conservation Recreation Overlay District has been established to promote the conservation of valuable natural resources and prevent environmental degradation. Moreover, it is intended to coordinate with State procedures and policies shaping land development which have been enacted through the Waterfront Development Act and the Coastal Area, Facilities Review Act to control the destructive development of beaches, dunes, and tidal wetlands. The CR Overlay District regulates the use of these land forms to ensure that they continue to secure the public safety from flood and other natural disasters and meet the needs of all New Jersey citizens in accordance with the purposes of the Municipal Land Use Law [N.J.S.A. 40:55D-2 (a), (b), (g), and (j)].

The boundary of the CR Zone District shall be interpreted to include all areas of the Borough along the bayfront which extend from the mean high water line landward to a line 125 feet landward of the top of the dune construction alignment line defined by and shown on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Construction Drawings entitled "Raritan Bay and Sandy Hook Bay Beach Erosion and Hurricane Project dated February 15, 1966 drawings CC-RS-501 through CC-RS-527." The CR Zone District shall include all wetlands regulated under the Wetlands Act of 1970 and as delineated on official maps as listed at N.J.A.C. 7:7-2.2.
