The State of New Jersey adopted residential site improvement standards. The legislature found and declared that it was in the public interest to avoid unnecessary costs in the construction process and that uniform site improvement standards for residential development would be cost effective and predictable for developers. These site improvement standards adopted in N.J.A.C. 5:21-1.1 et seq. are incorporated herein as if the same were set forth with particularity.

The standards set forth in the state regulations for residential development shall supersede any residential site improvement standards established within this chapter.

Nothing contained in the state regulations adopting the residential site improvement standards shall be interpreted to limit the zoning power of the City.
