B.
Affordable housing plan required.
(1)
Each developer of an affordable housing development shall file a developer's affordable housing plan with the Township Planning Board. Said plan shall be filed at the time of application for final approval for any site plan which includes low- and moderate-income housing units. It shall be a plan that has been approved by the administrative agent. Said plan shall meet all Department of Community Affairs requirements and shall specify in detail the methods, procedures and forms to be used by the developer and comply with provisions of this article. It shall contain the following information as to the proposed development.
(a)
Phasing and location of the low- and moderate-income units.
(b)
The bedroom mix, proposed unit pricing and specific affirmative marketing plans.
(c)
The restrictive covenant and mortgage lien to be used to insure affordability.
(2)
The plan shall be in such form and content in which the Township Planning Board may from time to time establish. The Township Planning Board's approval of the developer's affordable housing plan will be required prior to the issuance of a development permit or the signing of any subdivision plat by the Township. Also, compliance with the affordable housing construction phasing schedule set forth in § 348-11.3G below shall be incorporated in the plan and actual compliance shall be required prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy.
C.
Planning Board applications expedited and application fees waived. The Toms River Township Planning Board, with the cooperation of the developer, shall expedite, to the maximum extent possible, the processing of applications for development of affordable housing. The Township shall, to the maximum extent permitted by the law, waive the Township land use fees for submission of applications for only that portion of the development that consists of affordable housing. There shall be no waiver or reduction of fees as to the market rate units included within the application. Additionally, the Planning Board shall consider waiver requests for Township-required design standards that can be shown to generate unnecessary costs.
D.
Fee required. Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for an affordable housing unit, the developer of affordable housing sites shall pay a fee to the Township to offset the costs of the services of the Affordable Housing (AH) Administrator. Said fee shall be the prevailing fees charged by the administrative agent for such services.
