It is my understanding that m order that the Borough may proceed to adopt an ordinance that
complies with the state statute a finding of fact letter is required.
As the chief administrator of the Construction Department and m conjunction with all pertinent
Building Officials of this office I have determined that as per 40:48-2.3 that the Borough of
Cartemt does have within it's boundaries structures that axe dilapidated, dangerous, unsafe,
unsamtary, or otherwise unfit for human habitation, occupancy, or use are inimical to the welfare
and dangerous and injurious to the health and safety of the people of the State and that a public
necessity exists for the repair, closing or demolition of such strum or buildings.
Based on this intbrmaUon and under 40:48-2.5 I am requesting that an ordimmcc be drafted
authorizing the repair, closing or demolition of these structures
If you should have any questions please feel flee to contact me.
