The commissioner, or the governing body of the county, as appropriate, may allow construction or continuation of driveway access to a remote or isolated facility owned or operated by a governmental agency or authority or by a public utility or to an agricultural building or land, if the commissioner or governing body determines that the use of the driveway would be infrequent and would not pose a hazard or inconvenience to the public and that the creation or continuation of the driveway would not be in conflict with the purposes of P.L. 1989, c. 32 (C. 27:7-89 et seq.). No driveway access shall be provided to a facility which consists of an establishment providing employment to more than five persons.
