Is a permit required for a driveway?
All driveways are regulated by the ordinance but application for permit is not always necessary. Application for permit is required only when the driveway does not comply with Ordinance requirements, in which case a variance and plan review will be necessary at the Zoning Board of Adjustment at a public hearing. Application for modifications to right-of-way may also be required at the Engineering Office, where sidewalk, curb, pavement or excavation takes place within the road right-of-way. For more information, please contact Engineering by phone at 973-593-3060.
