RESOLUTION OPPOSING A -3143, LLIHTLNG LOCAL
EMPFORCING AGENCY FEES
WHEREAS, A -3143 would limit the fee amounts that a local enforcing agency may charge for
performing various construction code enforcement services to the fee amounts that the
Department of Community Affairs charges when it performs code enforcement services; and
WHEREAS, this bill allows municipal governing bodies to apply to the Commissioner of
Community Affairs for a waiver from the fee limitation; and
WHEREAS, this bill adjusts building permit fees for large, open volume buildings because the
construction fees are usually computed based on the volume of the building but the time required
for plan review and inspections of open volume buildings such as barns, greenhouses, warehouses
and distribution centers is less than for other buildings; and
WHEREAS, A -3143 specifies a lower unit rate for the computation of permit fees for lager
volume buildings, therefore limiting local agency fees; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Mayor and Council of the Borough of
Carteret strongly oppose A -3143; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Governor of
the State of New Jersey, Senator Joseph Vitale and Assemblymen John Wisniewski and Craig
Coughlin, Assemblyman Troy Singleton and the New Jersey State League of Municipalities.
Adopted this I& day of July, 2014
