For all uses other than single family or two-family residential uses, all areas between buildings, all parking areas and walkways, all passageways and driveways shall be adequately illuminated for security and safety reasons, in accordance with the standards set forth below. The lighting in and around parking areas and any other said lighting shall be nonglare light focused downward, and shall be shielded, buffered and directed so that glare, direct light or reflection will not become a nuisance to adjoining properties, adjoining residential units, or adjoining streets. All light poles which are within two hundred fifty (250) feet of a residential zone must contain House Side Shields or similar apparatuses so as to prevent light from shining onto adjacent residential zones. For parking areas, lighting shall be provided with a mounting height of not more than twenty-five (25) feet or the height of a building, whichever is less, except for parking areas located within two hundred fifty (250) feet of a residential zone, in which case the mounting height shall not exceed twelve (12) feet.

As required, approval for drainage systems of facilities shall be obtained from the appropriate municipal, County, State and Federal agencies and offices or such approval shall be a condition of preliminary approval. When required, each applicant shall make application to the State Division of Water Policy and Supply of the Department of Environmental Protection, to the County Engineering Department and to the Borough Engineer. Letters of approval from the appropriate governmental authorities shall be furnished to the Board Secretary, with copies to the Borough Engineer.

b. Where a lot or a tract is traversed by a watercourse, surface or underground drainage system, channel or stream carrying water from an adjacent tract of land, there shall be provided and dedicated a drainage right-of-way easement to the Borough conforming substantially with the lines of such watercourse, and such further width or construction or both as will be adequate to accommodate expected stormwater runoff in the future, based upon reasonable growth potential in the Borough and in any event, meeting the minimum widths and locations shown on an adopted Official Map or element of the Master Plan for the Borough, or where not so shown having a minimum width of twenty (20) feet.

c. The system shall be adequate to carry off or store the stormwater and natural drainage which originates not only within the lot or tract boundaries, but also that which originates beyond the lot or tract boundaries and traverses the site. No stormwater runoff or natural drainage shall be diverted so as to overload existing drainage systems or create flooding or the need for additional drainage structures on other private properties or public lands without adequate provision for off-tract improvements to accommodate the condition(s). Final disposition of stormwater shall be to an existing natural watercourse.

d. Street and off-site drainage facilities must be provided with sufficient catch basins, storm sewers, culverts, swales, and/or other drainage appurtenances for the proper drainage of the area in light of existing conditions and the proposed construction of buildings and paved areas.

e. Lots shall be graded to secure proper drainage away from buildings and into drainage facilities. Additionally, drainage shall be provided in a manner which will prevent the collection of stormwater in pools or other unauthorized concentrations of flow. To the extent possible. grading shall not divert water to-flow across property lines.

a. All sump pumps, roof leaders and foundation drains shall be connected to the drainage system, if available.

b. To prevent water from entering basements or cellars in areas where a high water table exists or is anticipated, as determined from secondary sources, the Board shall require the applicant to provide adequate subsurface drainage facilities before any basements or cellars are approved for construction

Storm sewers and culverts shall be constructed of reinforced concrete pipe, corrugated metal pipe, or aluminum culvert pipe as hereinafter specified.

a. Reinforced concrete pipe shall conform to the requirements of "Standard Specifications for Reinforced Concrete Pipes, A.S.T.M. designation C-76" of the year of last revision.

b. Corrugated metal pipe shall conform to the requirements of current A.A.S.H.O. specifications, designation M-36, for corrugated metal culvert pipe, and, in addition shall be provided with an exterior bituminous lining applied by a centrifugal method, extending not less than one-eighth (1/8) inch beyond the rest of the corrugations forming the entire inner circumference of the pipe. After application of the lining, the internal diameter of twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) inch pipe shall not vary more than one and one-half (1.5%) percent from the nominal diameter. The internal diameter of larger pipe after application of the lining shall not vary more than one (1%) percent or three-eights (3/8) inch whichever is greater, from the nominal diameter. Material for lining shall conform to the requirements of Article 8.1.3 of the New Jersey State Highway Department Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction for 1961 as amended.

c. Where adequate to accommodate stormwater runoff, six (6) inch PVC may be used to connect yard drains, leaders, etc. However, adequate cleanouts shall be provided to allow for maintenance of the system.

All residential developments must comply with the most recent edition of the New Jersey Residential Site Improvement Standards (RSIS) and all its amendments. Where the RSIS do not address a specific design standard then the relevant standard established in this section shall apply. (New)

It is hereby determined that the lakes and waterways within the Borough of Roseland are at times subjected to flooding; that such flooding is a danger to the lives and property of the public; that such flooding is also a danger to the natural resources of the Borough, County and State; that development tends to accentuate such flooding by increasing stormwater runoff, due to alteration of the hydrologic response of the watershed in changing from the undeveloped to the developed condition; that such increased flooding procedured by the development of real property contributes increased quantities of water-borne pollutants, and tends to increase channel erosion; that such increased flooding, increased erosion, and increased pollution constitutes deterioration of the water resources of the Borough, the County and the State; and that such increased flooding, increased erosion and increased pollution can be controlled to some extent by the regulation of stormwater runoff from such development. It is therefore determined that it is in the public interest to regulate the development of real property and to establish standards to regulate the additional discharge of stormwater runoff from such developments as provided in this.

The stormwater management design for all residential and nonresidential development shall be in conformance with the Stormwater Management Rule (N.J.A.C. 7:8) of the State of New Jersey and the New Jersey Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual published by the NJDEP dated April 2004 and amended thereafter. These rules set forth the required components of regional and municipal stormwater management plan and establish the stormwater management design and performance standards for new (proposed) development. The design and performance standards for new development include groundwater recharge, runoff quantity controls, runoff quality controls and Category One buffers. Details of the performance standards can be found in Subchapter 5 of the Stormwater Management Rules. (Ord. No. 10-2006)

The provisions of this section shall be applicable to each of the types of development named below.

a. All site plans and subdivision plans that will add one or more acres of impervious surface (except as provided in paragraph b. below).

b. In the event that control of stormwater runoff is mandated in certain areas for construction covering less than one (1) acre of ground, such lesser developments shall come under provisions of this section.

c. In the case of projects for which State and/or County as well as municipal approval of proposed drainage facilities is required, the applicants shall be required to comply with the stricter of the provisions. The only provisions of the municipal ordinance which shall govern are those requirements which are stricter than those of the County.
