Within six months of notice being served, the owner and/or operator shall substantially complete all activities in the decommissioning plan.

(f) Upon cessation of activity of a fully constructed solar energy system for a cumulative period of one year, the Township may notify the owner and/or the operator of the facility to implement the decommissioning plan. Within 180 days of notice being served, the owner and/or operator shall either resume energy generation to at least eighty-percent capacity of the facility or system as established at the time of approval, or fully implement the decommissioning plan. If, within 180 days of receipt of notice, the owner and/or operator of the facility or system fails to resume energy generation to at least 80% of capacity of the facility or system as established at the time of approval, the Township may order the owner and/or operator of the facility to implement the decommissioning plan.

(g) If the operator fails to fully implement the decommissioning plan subject to the procedures and timelines set forth in Subsection D(4)(e) and (f) above, or is otherwise unable to restore the site as required within 180 days of the Township's service of notice in accordance with this Subsection D(4), the Township may, at its own expense, provide for the restoration of the site in accordance with the decommissioning plan and may in accordance with the law recover all expenses incurred for such activities.

D. Development options.

(1) All subdivisions in the ARE-3, ARE-4 or ARE-6 Zone are required to utilize one of the following four development options. Conventional subdivisions are permissible for minor subdivisions and in cases where applicants can demonstrate to the Planning Board that the objectives of the district will be enhanced by the submission of a conventional subdivision. Factors to be utilized by the Board in its determination are:

(a) Retention of large contiguous wooded tracts.

(b) Retention of large farm tracts.

(c) Aggregation of smaller wooded and farm parcels.

(d) Enhancement of water quality.

(e) Protection of habitats.



(2) The maximum density of units per gross acre of land in the ARE-3 District shall be 0.33 unit per acre, ARE-4 District shall be 0.25 unit per acre and in the ARE-6 District shall be 0.167 unit per acre.

(3) Open lands subdivisions. Open lands subdivisions are permitted on all tracts in the ARE-3, ARE-4 and ARE-6 Districts. This option is intended to promote the retention of large contiguous wooded tracts and large farm tracts, and to promote the aggregation of smaller wooded and farm parcels. It is also intended to encourage and promote flexibility, economy and environmental soundness in subdivision layout and design. The following standards shall apply to open lands subdivisions:

(a) In order to determine the maximum number of lots for an open lands subdivision, a conforming plan of a conventional subdivision shall be submitted, based on minimum lot area of three acres in the ARE-3 District, four acres in the ARE-4 District and six acres in the ARE-6 District. The concept plan shall be in sufficient detail to permit the Planning Board to make an informed decision as to the subdivision satisfying all ordinance requirements and in a form that would be acceptable to the Planning Board as a conventional subdivision without the need for any lot area or lot dimension variances or exceptions to subdivision design standards. The number of lots on the concept plan shall be the maximum number of lots permitted under an open lands subdivision.

(b) At least 55% of the tract if located in ARE-3, 60% of the tract if located in the ARE-4 District and 75% of the tract if located in the ARE-6 District shall be designated as "open lands" and shall, as a condition of approval of the development, be deed restricted for agricultural or conservation use. The maximum density of the remaining property is 1.25 acres per unit in ARE-3, 1.5 acres per unit in ARE-4 and two acres per unit in ARE-6. Lots qualifying as open lands shall be permitted a primary residence and other accessory building uses as provided in this section.

(c) At least 40% of designated "open lands" shall be some combination of unconstrained land area, or prime soils or soils of statewide importance, or prime forested area. On tracts in areas which are predominantly active agricultural lands or consist of prime agricultural soils or soils of statewide importance, the preservation of agricultural lands and soils shall take precedence. On tracts in areas which are predominantly prime forested areas, the preservation of forested areas shall take precedence.

(d) For tracts of 30 acres or less, the open lands shall be contained in one deed-restricted contiguous parcel; for tracts greater than 30 acres, the open lands may be composed of noncontiguous parcels, provided that each open lands area shall contain at least 15 contiguous acres. When noncontiguous parcels of at least 15 acres are provided, each parcel may have a residence, provided that the total density is not exceeded.

(e) All lots created under this subdivision option shall be deed restricted against further subdivision for the purpose of creating an additional lot or lots.

(f) The design of the development utilizing this option shall foster the following objectives: retention of large contiguous farmland areas; retention of large contiguous prime forested areas; stream corridor and wetlands preservation; aquifer recharge protection; steep slope protection; overall site design; reduction of impervious coverage; traffic circulation; and, sensitivity to the site's natural features, topography and relationship to open lands on neighboring parcels.

(g) In forested areas, the design of the development shall include a 100-foot buffer along existing roads, which shall either maintain existing woodlands or establish new forested areas for those areas that are disturbed during site development or are currently cleared. The intent of this provision is to maintain the scenic roadside views in the Township.

(h) Natural features such as trees, natural terrain, open waters and natural drainage areas shall be preserved wherever possible in designing any development containing such features. As part of the subdivision or site plan review process, development should be designed to preserve scenic vistas and views of cultural/historic landmarks and of unique geologic and topographic features.

(i) The proposed development shall comply with the bulk and dimensional standards contained in Schedule III.

(j) The applicant is advised to submit a concept plan of the open lands subdivision for review and comment in accordance with this chapter.

(4) Cluster subdivisions in the ARE-3 District, ARE-4 District and ARE-6 District may be permitted at the sole discretion of the Planning Board. To utilize the cluster option the Planning Board must find that the resulting open space is of a sufficient character, size and location to effectuate the goals and objectives of the Township's Open Space, Conservation, Parks and Recreation or Farmland Preservation Plan elements. The following standards shall be minimum requirements: [Amended 10-16-2012 by Ord. No. 0-12-18]

(a) In order to determine the maximum number of lots for a cluster subdivision, a conforming plan of a conventional subdivision shall be submitted, based on minimum lot areas of three acres in the ARE-3 District, four acres in the ARE-4 District and six acres in the ARE-6 District. The concept plan shall be in sufficient detail to permit the Planning Board to make an informed decision as to the subdivision satisfying all ordinance requirements and in a form that would be acceptable to the Planning Board as a conventional subdivision without the need for any lot area or lot dimension variances or exceptions to subdivision design standards. The number of lots on the concept plan shall be the maximum number of lots permitted under a cluster subdivision.

(b) The minimum open space shall be 65% of the total tract in the ARE-3 District, ARE-4 District and ARE-6 District. Maximum density is 1.25 in ARE-3, 1.5 acres per unit in ARE-4 and 2.0 acres per unit in ARE-6.

(c) Areas reserved as permanent open space shall have a minimum contiguous area of not less than three acres, and no portion thereof shall be less than 50 feet in width. At least 40% of the open space shall be uplands. The open space area(s) shall be contiguous to open space on adjoining parcels, where applicable, and shall include areas identified in the Township's open space and recreation or conservation plans, if any, including greenways.

(d) On tracts in areas which are predominantly active agricultural lands or consist of prime agricultural soils or soils of statewide importance, the preservation of agricultural lands and soils shall take precedence. On tracts in areas which are predominantly prime forested areas, the preservation of forested areas shall take precedence.

(e) The open space shall be reserved in perpetuity either by dedication for public use or for use by the residents of the development by private covenant or deed restriction for one of the following purposes: undeveloped open space; public or private recreational facilities; conservation of environmentally sensitive features, including, but not limited to, wetlands, aquifer recharge areas, floodplains and wooded areas; and agricultural use.

(f) The proposed development shall comply with the bulk and dimensional standards contained in Schedule III.

(g) Provision shall be made to ensure suitable maintenance of any area to be reserved by private covenant or deed restriction by the establishment of a property owners' association or other appropriate organization.

(h) The applicant is advised to submit a concept plan of the cluster subdivision for review and comment in accordance with this chapter.

(5) Lot averaging subdivisions are permitted in the ARE-3 District, ARE-4 District and in the ARE-6 District in accordance with the following standards:

(a) In order to determine the maximum number of lots for a lot averaging subdivision, a conforming plan of a conventional subdivision shall be submitted, based on a minimum lot size of three acres in the ARE-3 District, four acres in the ARE-4 District and six acres in the ARE-6 District. The concept plan shall be in sufficient detail to permit the Planning Board to make an informed decision as to the subdivision satisfying all ordinance requirements and in a form that would be acceptable to the Planning Board as a conventional subdivision without the need for any lot area or lot dimension variances or exceptions to subdivision design standards. The number of lots on the concept plan shall be the maximum number of lots permitted under a lot averaging subdivision.

(b) A lot averaging subdivision may be permitted when the applicant proposes a distribution of lot areas within the subdivision that results in at least 60% of the lots having a minimum lot area between two acres and three acres, except in the case of a two-lot subdivision, in which case one of the two lots shall be two acres to three acres.

(c) The site design of lot averaging subdivisions should shift the more intensive development toward those lands that can best support the installation of the dwelling, well, septic system and associated site improvements. Similarly, lot averaging should seek to preserve those areas which exhibit sensitive environmental features (i.e., water bodies, floodplains, aquifer recharge areas, seasonal high water table, etc.) or which contain active or prime agricultural lands or prime forested areas.

(d) On tracts in areas which are predominantly active agricultural lands or consist of prime agricultural soils or soils of statewide importance, the preservation of agricultural lands and soils shall take precedence. On tracts in areas which are predominantly prime forested areas, the preservation of forested areas shall take precedence.

(e) The proposed development shall comply with the bulk and dimensional standards contained in Schedule III.

(f) The deed for any lot created by lot averaging shall contain a restriction against its further subdivision for the purpose of creating an additional lot or lots.

(g) The applicant is advised to submit a concept plan of the lot averaging subdivision for review and comment in accordance with this chapter.

(6) Farmland preservation parcels. These parcels are intended to provide a development option to an individual who intends to remove the development rights from the majority of the property, typically through a government or nonprofit sponsored farmland preservation program in accordance with the following standards. The farmland preservation option shall also apply to existing farms and other proposed farms in the ARE zones:

(a) To receive treatment under this section, farmland preservation property must consist of a lot, tract or parcel of land with a minimum contiguous acreage of 15 acres.

(b) The owner of a lot, tract or parcel of land who intends to place a portion of such property into farmland preservation shall be entitled to subdivide one or more residential lots from the lot, tract or parcel. The remainder shall be placed in farmland preservation. Use of the subdivided lot shall be limited to a detached single-family dwelling with permitted accessory uses.

(c) The number lots subdivided shall be in accordance with the following table:
