(B) Residential uses, unless specifically permitted, are prohibited.
(C) Multi-family housing uses (whether cooperative, condominium, townhouse or apartment style or configuration), unless specifically permitted, are prohibited.
(D) Area and bulk standards and design standards specifically applicable to a conditional use shall supersede the general area and bulk standards and design standards otherwise applicable to the zone.
(E) Unless otherwise specifically stated to the contrary, the area and bulk standards for primary uses on any property within a zone are the area and bulk standards applicable to all accessory and conditional uses permitted in the zone, including, but not limited to, the maximum height of all accessory structures, which shall not exceed the maximum permitted height for any primary structure.
(F) Notwithstanding any provision of Chapter 152, all uses permitted in the CP - Community Property Zoning District shall be permitted uses in any other district within the Township.
(G) Junkyards are not permitted in any zoning district.
(H) No truck, van, bus, trailer or other commercial vehicle in excess of 8,000 pounds registered weight shall be permitted in any residential zone or any in residential areas of the TC - Township Center or GB2 - General Business 2 Zones, except for the purpose of picking up or making deliveries in the regular course of business within such residential zone or area or for the purpose of installing, maintaining or otherwise performing public utility service. Only one truck, van, bus, trailer, taxi-cab or other commercial vehicle under 8,000 pounds registered vehicle weight shall be permitted to be parked on a lot in any residential zone or any residential areas in the township or of the TC - Township Center or GB2 - General Business 2 Zones.
(I) Temporary facilities for conducting permitted uses outside of any structure or other improvement identified on the current approved site plan for the property may only occur in the location shown on the approved final site plan for the lot. Any temporary use not on any approved site plan shall require a temporary use permit pursuant to § 156.20 below.
(J) Only one use shall be permitted on any one residential lot, except for permitted accessory uses and approved conditional uses which are intended to be incidental to the primary residential use. No passenger vehicle or commercial vehicle under 8,000 pounds registered vehicle weight shall be repaired on a lot in any residential zone or in any residential areas of the TC-Township Center or GB2-General Business 2 Zones unless registered to that residential property.
(K) Non-residential lots may contain more than one permitted use, subject to all development and uses on a lot meeting the area and bulk standards of the applicable zoning district and the requirements of Chapter 154 and Chapter 156, as applicable.
(L) Extra-territorial streets prohibited from connecting to township streets; exceptions.
(1) No streets proposed in any new development within any adjoining municipality may be connected to existing township owned and maintained streets within this township except if one of the following specifically applies:
(a) The new development within the adjoining municipality has obtained preliminary approval from the Planning Board, or Zoning Board, if applicable, of the adjoining municipality and the reviewing board, if applicable, of this township prior to October 13, 1997, and the connection of one or streets within such new development is specifically shown on such approved plans. This exception only applies to the specific streets shown on site plans or subdivision plans receiving preliminary approval prior to October 13, 1997, and any amendment of such plan must conform to this section. If such approval lapses or is abandoned, this exception is void.
(b) Both the street within the new development in the adjoining municipality and the connecting street within this township are designed by and will be owned and maintained by either the state or Camden County and/or Burlington County.
(c) The new development within the adjoining municipality is proposed and an application for the connecting streets is submitted along with an application for development of lands within this township in which such connecting streets will be constructed. This exception will only apply if the design of the streets within this township is reviewed by the applicable reviewing board engineer (and the Township Engineer, if applicable) and it is determined by such engineers that the design is acceptable under state and local safety, traffic flow and maintenance standards for the level of usage generated by all of the proposed development, including the development within the adjoining municipality.
(d) The connection of the street(s) within the new development within the municipality is specifically required under New Jersey state law.
(2) This section applies to all residential, commercial and industrial development and zoning districts. The existence of "stub" streets within any existing development, which stub streets abut the border of this Township with any adjoining municipality, will have no impact upon or affect the provisions of this section and no presumption of any exception to or waiver of this section is intended to exist simply due to the existence of such stub streets.
(M) No passenger vehicle or commercial vehicle under 8,000 pounds registered vehicle weight shall be repaired or attempted to be repaired in any manner on any residential property in any residential zone in the township or in any residential areas of the TC - Township Center or GB2 - General Business 2 Zones unless said vehicle is registered to the owner, a resident member of the owner's family or a registered tenant of the owner of that residential property.
(N) Any and all activities and/or actions which require any decision, action and/or inaction of the Township of Voorhees which action and/or inaction would constitute a violation of federal law shall be prohibited in any zoning district.
