Principal Uses and Principal Buildings Per Lot
(1) A lot in a commercial or industrial district may include more than one permitted principal use per lot and/or more than one permitted principal building per lot, provided that all of the requirements are met for each use and each building. If differing dimensional requirements apply for different uses on the lot, then the most restrictive requirement shall apply.
(a) For example, if Use No. 1 requires a one-acre lot area and Use No. 2 on the same lot requires a two-acre lot area, then the lot shall have a minimum lot area of two acres.
(b) The applicant shall submit a site plan that demonstrates that each structure would meet the requirements of this chapter.
(c) The uses and buildings shall be in common ownership. However, a condominium form of ownership of individual buildings, with a legally binding property owner association, may be established if the applicant proves, to the satisfaction of the Zoning Officer, based upon review by the Township Solicitor, that there will be appropriate legal mechanisms in place.
(2) A lot within a residential district shall not include more than one principal use and shall not include more than one principal building unless specifically permitted by this chapter.
(a) A manufactured/mobile home park, condominium residential development or apartment development may include more than one principal building per lot, provided all other requirements of this chapter are met. A condominium form of ownership of individual dwelling units, with a legally binding homeowners' association, may be established if the applicant proves, to the satisfaction of the Zoning Officer, based upon review by the Township Solicitor, that there will be appropriate legal mechanisms in place and compliance with applicable state law.
