REQUIRED INSPECTIONS
Construction work must be inspected as required by the Uniform Construction Code, N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.18. The Construction Office will conduct inspections as often as necessary to insure that all work conforms with the approved plans and the requirements of the Uniform Construction Code.
The owner or other person in charge of the work must notify this office when work is ready for inspection. Requests for inspections must be made at least 24 hours prior to the time inspection is desired. Inspections will be conducted within three (3) business days of the request, and work shall not proceed in a manner that will conceal it from the inspection.
