§ 19-11.1

General Purpose and Intent.

[Ord. #2001-20, S 4]
The RM/POS District regulations are intended to promote the redevelopment or reuse of the former Point Pleasant Hospital site and the adjoining outparcels comprising the RM/POS district in accordance with the following general principles:
a. 
The redevelopment or reuse of properties within the district, to the maximum extent practicable, should be in accordance with a comprehensive plan that includes significant and meaningful public access to the water-front, significant open landscaped areas available to the public in the non-waterfront areas, and private residential development.
b. 
The redevelopment or reuse of the hospital site should recognize and be compatible with the existing residential character of the adjoining areas.
c. 
The redevelopment or reuse of the hospital site should be guided by the principles of decreasing the existing impervious coverage of the area and increasing the amount of open landscaped areas.
d. 
The redevelopment or reuse of the waterfront portions of the hospital site should include expansion of the Borough's existing beach and water-dependent recreational facilities at the Maxson Avenue recreational facility.
e. 
The regulations governing the redevelopment or reuse of the hospital site are intended to allow for development flexibility within the prescribed standards set forth in this section and the general principles above.
