Co., 107 NJ 1 (1987) that the only “special reasons” which can be considered are those which promote the general purposes of zoning, as listed in N.J.S.A. 40:55D- 2. The court emphasized in Burbridge v. Mine Hill Twp., 117 NJ 376 (1990), however, that the MLUL includes all the zoning purposes listed in N.J.S.A. 40:55D- 2, not only the promotion of the general welfare.
