Section 7:50-5.34 - Assisted living facilities and continuing care retirement communities

(a) A municipality may include in its master plan and land use ordinance provisions which permit assisted living facilities and continuing care retirement communities, provided that:

1. Such uses shall be permitted only in Regional Growth Areas, Pinelands Villages and Pinelands Towns;

2. Within Regional Growth Areas, assisted living facilities and continuing care retirement communities may be permitted at densities consistent with the standards of N.J.A.C. 7:50-5.28(a); provided, however, that the maximum permitted density for an assisted living facility, including the assisted living component of a continuing care retirement community, shall be permitted to exceed eight units per acre only through the use of Pinelands Development Credits;

3. Within Pinelands Villages and Pinelands Towns, assisted living facilities and continuing care retirement communities may be permitted consistent with the standards of N.J.A.C. 7:50-5.27;

4. Calculations of residential density shall include all dwelling units in a continuing care retirement community and all dwelling units within an assisted living facility. Long term care beds within nursing facilities that have been licensed as such by the Department of Health and Senior Services shall not be included in calculations of density, whether or not said facility is part of a continuing care retirement community; and

5. Residential density for continuing care retirement communities and for any assisted living facilities which are part of a mixed use development shall be calculated by determining the amount of land associated with each use to be located on the parcel proposed for development. When the residential and nonresidential uses are located in the same building or share other facilities, the determination of land area occupied by the residential use may take into consideration the size, intensity and capacity of the proposed residential and nonresidential uses on said parcel.
