Frequently asked questions

How do I get the Affidavit of Service notarized?
Complete the affidavit and attach the required notice and service details, but do not sign it in advance. Book an online notary and sign while appearing before the notary.
Do I need to notarize the entire variance application?
The package specifically directs the person who effected service to sign the Affidavit of Service before a notary or attorney. It also includes a sworn Disclosure of Ownership and a Certificate of Concurrence with a notarial block.
Can I sign the affidavit with an online notary?
Since October 2021, New Jersey has permanently authorized remote online notarization and remote ink notarization for its own notaries under P.L. 2021, c.179, N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.9 et seq. An authorized officer performing a notarial act in another state has the same effect under N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.14.
When must I give the Affidavit of Service to the Planning Board?
The package says service documents must be provided to the Planning and Zoning Office by the Thursday seven days before the hearing for attorney review. Confirm with the municipality if unsure.
