permitted in this section for residential developments provided,
however, that the Township of Hardyston enters into a voluntary,
written agreement with a residential developer, and provided
further that such written agreement sets forth a financial
incentive that shall include, but not be limited to: a tax
abatement, reduction in the development design standards,
waiver of off-tract improvement requirements and/or waiver

(i). When a cash development fee is to be made in a sum determined

of each dwelling unit at the time of project completion or
where feasible completion of the unit in question.
(ii). The developer shall pay fifty (50) percent of the calculated
development fee, which is nonrefundable, to the Township of
Hardyston prior to commencement of construction. The development
fee shall be estimated by the Tax Assessor prior to the issuance
of building permits based upon construction costs.
(iii). The developer shall pay the remaining fee to the Township
of Hardyston at the issuance of certificate of occupancy.
At the issuance of certificates of occupancy, the Tax Assessor
shall calculate the equalized assessed value and the appropriate
development fee. The developer shall be responsible for paying
the difference between the fee calculated at the time of issuance
of the certificate of occupancy and the amount paid at the
time of issuance of the building permit.

N.J.A.C. 5:92-18.17 and 18.18. All development fees paid by
developers pursuant to this section shall be deposited in
this account. No money shall be expended from this housing
trust fund account unless the expenditure conforms to the
municipal spending plan approved by COAH for the Township
of Hardyston.
(ii).
If COAH determines that the Township is not in conformance
with COAH's development fee rules, COAH is authorized to direct
the manner in which all development fees collected from developers

program) and administrative costs necessary to implement the
Township of Hardyston's housing element. The expenditures
of all money from that separate interest bearing housing trust
fund account shall conform to a spending plan approved by
COAH as per its regulation. The expenditure of all money from
