Multifamily/Affordable Housing 5 Zone

It is the intent of this Article X to provide zoning regulations that create a realistic opportunity for the construction of housing affordable to very-low, low- and moderate-income households in the context of inclusionary residential developments that are zoned, consistent with an adopted Housing Element and Fair Share Plan, to allow a higher density of multifamily residential development than otherwise permitted in Wyckoff sufficient to subsidize the construction of such very low-, low- and moderate-income housing; to provide reasonable, non-cost-generating bulk standards for such development, consistent with the Residential Site Improvement Standards (N.J.A.C. 5:21); to provide overlay zoning to certain sites and areas of the Township that may someday redevelop so as to ensure that such sites will be redeveloped as inclusionary residential developments that will provide the opportunity for very-low-, low- and moderate-income housing to be constructed in the future; and to require all multifamily residential developments, including apartments, townhouses, condominiums and any other non-single-family detached residential developments, that are approved in the future to be constructed at a certain minimum density, but that are not currently anticipated as part of an adopted Housing Element and Fair Share Plan, to provide a set-aside of very low-, low- and moderate-income housing. All developments constructed pursuant to this article shall also be subject to the requirements of Chapter 77, Affordable Housing, which requirements shall accompany, and, where there is a conflict, supersede the requirements of this Article X. Any other provision of any ordinance of the Township of Wyckoff that is in conflict with this Article X or impose higher standards not directly related to health and safety shall be inapplicable. The definitions set forth in Chapter 77 shall apply to this Article X.
