The provisions of this chapter shall be administered and enforced by the Administrative Officer of the municipality. In no case shall a permit be granted for the construction or alteration of any building where the proposed construction, alteration or use thereof would be in violation of any provision of this chapter. It shall be the duty of the Zoning Officer or his duly authorized assistants to cause any building, plans or premises to be inspected or examined and to order, in writing, the remedying of any conditions found to exist in violation of any provision of this chapter and he shall have the right to enter any building or premises during the daytime in the course of his duties.

With regard to variance, site plan and subdivision applications, no permit shall be issued until four (4) copies of the final approved plot plan, subdivision plan, or site plan are submitted to the Administrative Officer and signed by the Board Engineer, Board Chairman, and Board Secretary.

No building or dwelling shall be deemed habitable nor shall a Certificate of Occupancy for any building or dwelling on a lot within an approved site plan, subdivision, or single lot residential construction be issued until the Borough Engineer or Construction Official or designated Borough Official certifies that the following improvements are installed, as shown on the approved final site plan, final plat, or final plot plan, and accompanying supplementary documentation and specifications, in that section for which final approval has been granted as said improvements relate to the health, welfare, and safety of the occupants of the site, structure or building for which the certificate is sought. In order to confirm compliance as stated above, the Borough Engineer or Construction Official or designated Borough Official may request, and the applicant shall provide, an as-built survey of any one (1) or more of the improvements including but not limited to, the following improvements which are deemed minimal for the purpose of granting a Certificate of Occupancy:

The owner or developer shall have the right to make application, in writing, to the Borough Engineer or other designated official for issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy if one (1) or more of the aforesaid items is incomplete. The Borough Engineer or other designated official shall, within ten (10) days of receipt of the request, report his findings in respect to the request of the owner or developer for a Certificate of Occupancy.

In the event the Borough Engineer or other designated official approves the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy without the installation of all required improvements, pursuant to the application of the owner or developer, the Construction Code Official shall be so notified. This procedure shall be applicable only to improvements required to the site or property in accordance with the plans approved by the Municipal Agency and shall not apply to conditions that are required by the Uniform Construction Code. No Certificate of Occupancy shall be authorized for a structure that is not in compliance with the Uniform Construction Code.

All lots and parcels of land within a subdivision, site plan, or single lot residential development, whether to be conveyed to private ownership or to the Borough as park, open space, or right-of-way, shall be stabilized to prevent erosion and silting of streams prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy.

No Certificate of Occupancy shall be issued until the land, use, buildings, structure or premises fully comply with all the provisions of this section, all other Borough and State requirements and, if involved, with such conditions as have been required for any site plan approval. When issued, the Certificate of Occupancy shall state such compliance.
