Manasquan City Zoning Code

§ 35-22.3

Determination of Expenses to Be Paid by Developer.

[1972 Code § 107-75; Ord. No. 1097]
In cases where the need for any off-tract improvement is necessitated by the proposed development application and where it is determined that properties outside the development will also be benefited by the improvement, the following criteria shall be utilized in determining the developer's proportionate share of such improvements:
a. 
Sanitary Sewers. For distribution facilities, including the installation, relocation or replacement of collector, trunk and interceptor sewers and the installation, relocation or replacement of other appurtenances associated therewith, the applicant's proportionate share shall be computed as follows:
1. 
The capacity and the design of the sanitary sewer system shall be based on Rules and Regulations for the Preparation and Submission of Plans for Sewerage Systems, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, and all Manasquan Borough sewer design standards, including infiltration standards, and all other Manasquan Borough water drain standards.
2. 
Developer's pro rata share.
(a) 
The capacity of the existing system to service the entire improved drainage area shall be computed. If the system is able to carry the total developed drainage basin, no improvement or enlargement costs will be assigned to the developer. If the existing system does not have adequate capacity for the total developed drainage basin, the prorated enlargement or improvement share shall be computed as follows:
Total enlargement or improvement cost
Developer's cost
=
Total tributary gallons per day
Development gallons
(b) 
If it is necessary to construct a new system in order to develop the subdivision, the enlargement share to the developer shall be computed as follows:
Total project cost
Developer's cost
=
Total tributary gallons per day to new system
Development tributary gallons per day
(c) 
The plans for the improved system or extended system shall be prepared by the developer's engineer. All work shall be calculated by the developer and approved by the Borough Engineer.
b. 
Roadways. For street widening, alignment channelization of intersections, construction of barriers, new or improved traffic signalization, signs, curbs, sidewalks, trees, utility improvement uncovered elsewhere, the construction or reconstruction of new or existing streets and other associated streets or traffic improvements, the applicant's proportionate cost shall be determined as follows:
1. 
The Borough Engineer shall provide the applicant's engineer with the existing and anticipated peak-hour flows for the off-tract improvement.
2. 
The applicant shall furnish a plan for the proposed off-tract improvement, which shall include the estimated peak-hour traffic generated by the proposed development. The ratio of the peak-hour traffic generated by the proposed development to the future peak-hour traffic shall form the basis of the proportionate share. The prorated share shall be computed as follows:
Total cost of the roadway improvement and/or extension
Developer's cost
=
Future peak-hour traffic
Future peak-hour traffic generated by the development
c. 
Drainage Improvements. For stormwater and drainage improvements, including the installation, relocation or replacement of storm drains, culverts, catch basins, manholes, riprap or improved drainage ditches and appurtenances thereto and the relocation or replacement of other storm drainage facilities or appurtenances associated therewith, the applicant's proportionate share shall be determined as follows:
1. 
The capacity and the design of the drainage system to accommodate stormwater runoff shall be based on a method described in Urban Hydrology for Small Watershed Technical Release 55, Soil Conservation Service, United States Department of Agriculture, January 1975, as amended, and shall be computed by the developer's engineer and approved by the Borough Engineer.
2. 
The capacity of the enlarged, extended or improved system required for the subdivision and areas outside of the developer's tributary to the drainage system shall be determined by the developer's engineer, subject to approval of the Borough Engineer. The plans for the improved system shall be prepared by the developer's engineer and the estimated cost of the enlarged system calculated by the Borough Engineer.
(a) 
The prorated share for the proposed improvement shall be computed as follows:
Total enlargement or improvement cost of drainage facilities
Developer's cost
=
Total tributary cubic feet per second
Development cubic feet per second
(b) 
Escrow accounts. Where the proposed off-tract improvement is to be undertaken at some future date, the moneys required for the improvement shall be deposited to the credit of the Borough in a separate account until such time as the improvement is constructed. If the off-tract improvement is not begun with 10 years of deposit, all moneys and interest shall be returned to the applicant.
(c) 
Computation of pro rata share. In any case in which an applicant shall not provide the approving authority with the estimates of a traffic consultant engineer with regard to estimated improvement costs and all other information necessary to proportion costs, the approving authority may rely on the estimates of the Borough Engineer in order to prorate costs.
