Additional definitions.
The Lawrence Township Airport Zoning Ordinance and Floodplain Regulations have been incorporated into the Zoning Ordinance. Because of their special and technical nature, additional sections on definitions are included in the articles of this chapter which cover these matters. (See Article
VIII). Therefore, persons interested or affected by those Articles should consult the special definitions contained therein. However, for general zoning matters that do not relate to regulations pertaining to airport zoning or floodplain regulations, the definitions in Article
