Natural Resource Exemptions. The following exemptions may apply to the development/redevelopment of an abandoned quarry site when determined appropriate by the Planning Board. Exemptions: The steep slopes and woodland protection standards of this chapter may be waived, either in part or in whole, by the Planning Board provided that a proposed development plan is coordinated with an approved quarry reclamation/restoration plan and/or provided that a purpose of the Union Township Master Plan would be advanced as a result of the development as proposed, and that the benefits from such waivers would substantially outweigh any detriment in granting same. In addition, the Planning Board may consider the inclusion of additional land area adjacent, and directly related to, the quarry land, if in their judgment, said inclusion would further the purpose of the Master Plan.
