March 16, 2026 Our File No. 115.WRP0158.V01 Page 4 to clarify if the existing chain link fence associated with the existing dwelling will be removed. 7. Section 25-29.2 of the Land Use Regulations defines a “Minor Development” as any land development and/or the construction of any site improvements that result in an increase in impervious cover by 400 sf that results in an increase of stormwater runoff but does not meet the definition of a major development. Based on our review, we find that the proposed development is classified as a minor development. 8. The Applicant must demonstrate compliance with Section 25-29.3.c of the Land Use Regulations which states that the stormwater management measures for minor development shall be designed to provide erosion control, groundwater recharge and stormwater runoff quantity control through the utilization of green infrastructure techniques as follows: a) Stormwater management facilities shall be designated to manage six inches of rainfall on all new impervious surfaces and meet the standards for runoff quantity and green infrastructure. b) Soil testing shall be performed in accordance with the current rules at N.J.A.C. 7:8. c) The minimum standards for erosion control established under the Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Act, N.J.S.A. 4:24-39 et seq., and implementing rules at N.J.A.C.2:9 shall be met. d) Regular and effective maintenance shall be performed for all stormwater management facilities and shall be protected by the owner. 9. Section 25-29.9.a.1 of the Land Use Regulations stipulates for minor developments that for each square foot of increased impervious surface, six inches per square foot of stormwater shall be managed using green infrastructure practices as set out in Table 7. 10. The Applicant proposes the use of a drywell system to mitigate the increase in runoff from the site. It states in Table 7 that the use of a drywell is allowed only where the other listed methods cannot feasibly meet the requirements of this section. Therefore, the Applicant must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Board that the other listed methods are not feasible for this project. 11. As stipulated under Section 25-29.9.a.1 of the Township Code, the Applicant must submit all of the required components of the checklist for the site development stormwater plan at Section 25-29.11.c. The Applicant must demonstrate that
