Bergenfield Schedule B caps total impervious coverage on any developed lot, requiring surveys to show lot coverage, improved coverage, and any pervious paver areas proposed.
Bergenfield's zoning chapter sets a limiting schedule (Schedule B) capping the total impervious coverage on any lot associated with development. The Borough requires that the survey accompanying any permit application include the driveway, sidewalk, decks, sheds, all setbacks, lot coverage, improved lot coverage, and any proposed area to be covered with pervious, permeable, or porous paver systems. Permeable paver areas may be credited differently than fully impervious surfaces, but exceeding Schedule B totals requires a variance from the Zoning Board of Adjustment.
Exceeding lot coverage limits may halt construction, require removal of paved areas, or trigger variance application requirements.
