§ 184-47. Certificates of occupancy.

A. 

When required. Certificates of occupancy, or other forms thereof (e.g., certificates of continued occupancy, certificates of approval, certificates of compliance, etc.) shall be applied for and granted by the Construction Official before the facility is occupied or used, as required by the Uniform Construction Code, N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.23. Any change in use or modification of utilization shall require a new certificate of occupancy. Before any certificate of occupancy shall be issued for any such change in use or modification of utilization, all applicable provisions of this chapter shall be complied with.

B. 

Review procedure. A fee as set forth in the Borough Code for any certificate of occupancy shall be paid to the Borough prior to the issuance thereof. No certificate of occupancy shall be issued by the Construction Official until the agency has received prior approvals in writing from the Zoning Officer, the Borough Engineer, the Soil Conservation District, where applicable, and such other jurisdictions as may occasionally be required, as determined by the enforcing agency. Each of the above officials shall review the application for compliance with any regulations, conditions of Board resolutions, etc., which are within their respective areas of responsibility.

C. 

Completion of required improvements prior to issuance of certificates of occupancy. In the event subdivision, site plan and/or variance approval is required, no certificate of occupancy shall be issued prior to final approval, nor prior to satisfactory completion of the required improvements set forth in Article IX except as may be provided otherwise by this chapter.
