Piscataway City Zoning Code
§ 21-1502.4
Temporary Use Permits.
[Ord. No. 08-24 § 21-1502.4; Ord. No. 2015-07; 11-26-2019 by Ord. No. 2019-29]
It is recognized that it may be in accordance with the purposes of Township Ordinances to permit temporary activities for a limited period of time, which activities (i) constitute uses not permitted by the provisions of the Township Zoning Ordinance; or (ii) involves a property which has never received site plan approval or a property which is not compliant with a previously approved site plan; or (iii) involves a property which has a zoning violation or property maintenance violation and thereby cannot secure a zoning permit. If a case is of such a nature and the property involved is so located that at the time of the petition, it will:
a.
In no way exert a substantial detrimental effect upon the uses of land and activities normally permitted in the zone; and
b.
Contribute materially to the welfare of the Township, particularly in a state of emergency, under conditions peculiar to the time and place involved, then the Zoning Board of Adjustment may, by resolution after written application therefor, subject to any conditions the Zoning Board deems appropriate, and subject to all regulations for the issuance of construction, sewer and other permits elsewhere specified, issue a temporary use permit for a period not to exceed six months. Such period may be extended not more than once for an additional period of six months. Upon issuance of a temporary use permit, the property owner shall be required to comply with all municipal taxes and fees as would be applicable upon issuance of a certificate of occupancy pursuant to § 21-1502.2.
