B-1A District. [Added 4-29-1997 ] A. Purpose. This district has been established in recognition of the need to provide adequate housing to meet the unique requirements of senior citizens with respect to design and proximity to open space, recreation and shopping areas. It is intended that this zone provide an opportunity for the development of assisted living residential opportunity. The area included within this zone is proximate to a major street system, including State Highway Route 34 and Route 537, along with the commercial uses thereon, while also providing the advantages of an open, rural residential atmosphere due to the adjacent AG District zoning. In addition, the following provisions recognize that current infrastructure limitations require water to be obtained from groundwater sources and that the Raritan-Magothy Aquifer is the shallowest aquifer with the capability of serving an assisted living residence permitted by the terms of this section without potential adverse impact upon existing wells in the area in and around the B-1A District and that any such development shall therefore be required to utilize such aquifer for groundwater requirements. B. Permitted principal uses. The following shall be permitted as principal uses: (1) Assisted living residences. (2) All principal uses permitted in the AG Agricultural District Development. Such uses shall be in accordance with the requirements and standards set forth in these regulations for the AG Agricultural District, provided for in this chapter, and the schedule of limitations applicable thereto. (3) The growing, cultivating, farming, manufacturing, distribution, or selling of medical and/or recreational marijuana, and/or paraphernalia that facilitates its use, shall be a prohibited principal, accessory or conditional use. [Added 8-8-2018 by Ord. No. 2018-13 ; amended 4-14-2021 by Ord. No. 2021-6 ] C. Conditional uses.
