In the event that the violation is not abated within 10 days
of service or posting on site, whichever is earlier, the Historic
Administrative Officer shall cause to be instituted any appropriate
action or proceeding to prevent such unlawful activity, to restrain,
correct or abate such violation, to prevent the occupancy of said
building, structure or site or to prevent any illegal act, conduct,
business or use in or about such premises as follows:
A. If any person shall undertake any activity requiring a permit, report or certificate of appropriateness of the Commission without first having obtained approval, he or she shall be required to immediately stop the activity, apply for approval and be required to immediately correct, abate and/or restore the premises or property to its previous condition pending such approval. If the work is denied, he or she shall immediately restore the building, structure, object or site to its condition prior to any such activity. The Historic Administrative Officer is hereby authorized to seek injunctive relief regarding a stop action or restoration in the Superior Court not less than 10 days after the delivery of notice pursuant to Subsection
B below.
B. In the event of the threat of imminent action or demolition for which
the necessary approvals have not been granted and which action would
permanently and adversely change a landmark or any building, structure,
object or site located within a landmark district, the Historic Administrative
Officer is empowered to apply to the Superior Court of New Jersey
for injunctive relief as is necessary to prevent such actions.
