MILLSTONE – Municipal officials have adopted an ordinance that revises the fees that are charged for development applications in Millstone Township.

Applications that do not conform to the permitted uses in the zones where they seek to be developed are heard by the Zoning Board of Adjustment.

In application fees, the ordinance will increase the concept plans/informal reviews for subdivisions, sketch plats/informal reviews for site plans, minor site plans, appeals of decisions by administrative officials to the zoning board, interpretations of the land use and development regulations or zoning map by the zoning board and extension of time requests for use variances from $350 to $500; minor subdivisions, use variances and conditional uses from $750 to $1,000; and final major subdivisions, final major site plans and general development plans and municipal agreement reviews from $500 to $1,000.

Further increases in the application fees include residential preliminary major site plans from $1,000 to $2,500; non-residential preliminary major site plans from $1,000 to $1,500 and $50 per acre, with 0.05 cents per square foot for the proposed building area (not to exceed $5,000); in-house administrative site plan review from $250 to $500; hardship or bulk variances from $350 to $500 each; variances for frontage on unimproved streets before the zoning board from $350 to $1,000; extension requests for hardship/bulk variances from $250 to $350; and tax map revision fees from $150 for the lot and $25 per unit to $200 for the lot and $50 per unit.

In escrow amount, the ordinance will increase minor subdivisions from $3,500 to $5,000; minor site plan approval from $3,000 to $5,000; in-house administrative site plan review from $2,000 to $2,500; appeals of decisions by administrative officials to the zoning board, interpretations of the land use and development regulations or zoning map by the zoning board and extension of time requests for use variances from $1,500 to $2,000; variances for frontage on unimproved streets before the zoning board from $1,000 to $1,500; and extension of time requests for hardship/bulk variances from $500 to $1,000.
