Michael J Martello assigned this issue to Construction Code Enforcement Dept. (Building & Zoning)

The Construction Office will look into this situation as to the permit status.

Property owner has a valid permit, from 2011, under the "Permit Extension Act". Work has stalled due to lack of funds. However, owner still plans to finish. Notice sent relative to property maintenance conditions.

Any updates on this? Thanks

Any update on this?

2016 and nothing done. This is an I sore!!!. The wood holding up the front porch is ready to break. Windows broken etc. The side walk is very dangerous someone is going to fall. I walk on the street. PLEASE HELP. How much longer must the resident of Oakwood ave have to deal with this.

Violations have already been sent and a court case is already pending, through the Construction Code Department, relative to the property maintenance and unsafe structure issues.

In general how long are permits good for an addition to a house

With the "Permit Extension Act" in place, and it being re-authorized by the State on New Jersey on an annual basis, a valid permit can be good (almost) indefinitely. The purpose of the Permit Extension Act was to prevent permits from being voided after a project slows and/or stops due to a lack of funds in a down-turned economy. Unfortunately, that is the case with this property. The funds apparently have dried up, but the owner still intends to eventually finish. The Construction Code Office does not have the authority to "force" the owner to perform any work or to complete a project. We can only require that they monitor the site for any property maintenance and/or unsafe structure issues.

thanks for the explanation, but I am wondering in general, how long is a permit good for, borrowing any unforeseen issues.

OK please update

This property needs maintenance, the weeds are grown again and there is vermin running around. I fear for the safety and health of my children as they like to go in the back yard and play. Please help. Thank you.

Thanks Oc Hope you children are safe......Now it is 5/18/16. Any update?.How long does is a permit good for, Does someone has to get hurt before the town does something.

Abandoned property. Updated permits taken, and issues being resolved by the new owner.
