Subject: ISSUANCE OF PERMITS 

All Unit Owners,

The SHCA Board has determined that recent events require the implementation of a new policy to ensure the safety of the residents and the properties of the Association.

Effective immediately, no permits will be issued by the New Jersey Dept. of Community Affairs (DCA), the enforcing agency of the N.J. Uniform Construction Codes in the Borough of Glen Gardner (see ordinance § 72-1), without a written notice of approval from the Association. Approvals will only be issued to Unit Owners of record. Contractors are not permitted on-site without contacting the office (see Rules and Regulations – “Contractors”).

A Construction Code permit is required for, but not limited to, the replacement of or modification(s) to the following:

  · Water Heater

· Electrical, plumbing and HVAC systems

· Furnace

· Any modification(s) to interior space

· A/C Components

· Any work affecting fire safety

Permits may only be obtained at:

Office of State and Local Code Inspections

Northern Regional Office

171 Route 173 – Suite 101

Asbury, NJ 08802 

Phone:  (908) 713-0722

Upon review and approval, a written notice will be issued for you to provide the Dept. of Community Affairs (DCA) along with your application for a permit. Upon being issued a permit, a copy is to be immediately provided to the Property Mgr.  The issuing of a permit and the final inspection and approval by the appropriate code official(s) must be completed in order to be in compliance with this policy. 

If you have any questions, please call the office or bring your concerns to an Association Meeting.

Sincerely,

SHCA Board of Trustees
