§ 16-5.5

Lot Configuration.

[Ord. 895-482, S 505]
a. 
Insofar as is practical, side lot lines shall be either at right angles or radial to street lines.
b. 
Each lot must front upon an approved street, except that in instances where private streets and/or other accessways are provided and approved as part of a site plan and/or subdivision submission, each lot need not front upon an approved street.
c. 
All lots shall be suitable for the purpose(s) of their intended use. Where there is a question as to the suitability of a lot or lots for their intended use due to factors such as poor drainage conditions or flood conditions, percolation tests or test borings indicating the ground conditions to be inadequate for proper sewage disposal for on lot sewage treatment or similar circumstances, the Board, after adequate investigation and receipt of a written report by the Township Board of Health, may withhold approval of such lots. If approval is withheld, the Board shall give reasons and notify the applicant and enter the same in the minutes.
d. 
Concrete monuments shall be installed in accordance with the requirements of the New Jersey Map Filing Act. In any case, all lot corners shall be marked with metal alloy pins.
e. 
All lots and/or buildings on lots shall be oriented for solar energy access where possible and desirable.
