§ 190-92 Zoning districts and implementation of the 2018 Pompton Lakes Hamburg Redevelopment Plan N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-7a(2).
So that there may be a provision in Pompton Lakes for capital investment in quality mixed use properties, including the provision of quality retail and residential opportunities, as well as quality community facilities developed in concert with the pre-existing businesses in the HAMBURG Redevelopment Area of Pompton Lakes (HRA 1) and HAMBURG Redevelopment Area Redevelopment Plan provides for the implementation of the following zoning districts and land use patterns as required to be identified by N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-7a (2).
A.
The HRA 1 overlay zone shall encompass and include those parcels identified in § 190-91A of this Plan that are located along the Hamburg Turnpike as set forth in the Pompton Lakes HAMBURG Redevelopment Area.
The bulk zoning provisions of the Pompton Lakes HAMBURG Redevelopment Area, HRA 1, shall be established as set forth in the Redevelopment Plan prepared by Maser Consulting, which plan shall, by further ordinance, amend Chapter 190 of the Borough Administrative Code.
The Pompton Lakes Planning Board is hereby authorized to grant deviations (generically referred to as "variances") from this Plan and the underlying existing zoning of the Redevelopment Area. This shall apply only to those properties located in the HRA-1 zoning district.
Those properties located in the existing zones in HAMBURG Redevelopment Area 1 of Pompton Lakes not included in this Plan and not otherwise included in a new zoning district shall maintain their previous zoning.
§ 190-93 Relationship to local objectives (N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-7.a.(1)).
This Redevelopment Plan has as its objectives to promote appropriate land uses, density of population, and improved traffic and public transportation, public utilities, recreational and community facilities and other public improvements. This Plan provides for opportunities in Pompton Lakes to be redeveloped in concert with the pre-existing and envisioned new, service businesses.
This Plan includes land use patterns in the Redevelopment Area(s), and newly created Redevelopment zones, which generally follow the existing Borough zoning regulations applicable to the respective area with certain exceptions.
§ 190-94 Relationship with Master Plans (N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-7.a.(3) and (5)).
A.
The Borough of Pompton Lakes is required, as part of the Redevelopment Plan, to indicate any significant relationship to the master plans of contiguous municipalities, the County master plan, and the SDRP. We have reviewed the master plans of the County of Passaic and adjoining municipalities and find that these master plans and public entities are not affected by this Redevelopment Plan. This Plan is also consistent with the SDRP/.
B.
The Council finds that this redevelopment plan is consistent with the Borough of Pompton Lakes zoning and Master Plan.
