§ 13:18a-15.
Subsequent to the adoption of the comprehensive management plan, the commission is
hereby authorized to commence a review, within 15 days after any final municipal or
county approval thereof, of any application for development in the pinelands area. Upon determining to exercise such authority, the commission shall transmit, by certified
mail, written notice thereof to the person who submitted such application. The commission shall, after public hearing thereon, approve, reject, or approve
with conditions any such application within 45 days of transmitting such notice;
provided, however, that such application shall not be rejected or conditionally approved
unless the commission determines that such development does not conform with the comprehensive
management plan or the minimum standards contained therein, as applicable to the county
or municipality wherein such development is located, or that such development could
result in substantial impairment of the resources of the pinelands area. Such approval, rejection or conditional approval shall be binding upon the person
who submitted such application, shall supersede any municipal or county approval of
any such development, and shall be subject only to judicial review as provided in
section 19 of this act. 1 The number of low or moderate income housing units provided for in the application
for development shall not be used as a criterion for the approval or rejection of
the application. 1
