a.2 Ordinance 244-166 Regulated Soil Removal as follows:

No topsoil, subsoil, sand or gravel shall be removed from any property or site in any zone unless and until a soil removal permit and/or license shall be obtained pursuant to Chapter 185, Excavations, Mining and Dredging, of the Code of the Township of Jackson; provided, however, that the following exceptions shall apply:

The Township Engineer may issue a soil removal permit, in conjunction with a building permit application, for removal of soil for building foundations and other structures, provided that the total amount of soil to be removed from any site does not exceed 500 cubic yards.

  1. The Planning Board may approve a soil removal permit, as a condition of its approval of an application for development, upon finding that the removal is necessary for the development of the site as approved by the Board, and further provided that the amount of soil to be removed from the property or site does not exceed 1,000 cubic yards.
  2. The applicant should confirm the 1000 CY limitation will not be exceeded or if a soil removal permit is required.
  3. Stormwater management facilities consist of a series of interconnection inlet structures discharging to a proposed stormwater management basin at the Westerly end of the development area. Based on our review of the submitted stormwater design calculations, the overall proposal is acceptable and raises no concerns or objections. However, the applicant should be prepared to discuss:
  4. Available permeability rates within the drainage basin area as well as anticipated "Time to Drain".
  5. Stormwater management system ownership and maintenance responsibilities.
  6. Provisions for basin access, security and an emergency spillway.
  7. Drainage basin landscaping.
  8. Downstream impacts associated with any basin overflow.
  9. All stormwater management systems approved by the Township require submission of written agreements subject to approval by the Board Attorney that future maintenance of the system shall be the responsibility of the property owner, homeowners' association or other responsible parties. Copies of fully executed and recorded documents shall be submitted prior to signing of the development plans, commencement of any onsite construction or issuance of any construction permit. The applicant's attention is directed to Ordinance Section 244-209J which details the maintenance plans/agreement requirements.
