No owner, agent, realtor or broker, firm, company,
partnership, corporation, or any other person shall sell, rent, re-rent,
transfer, lease, let, mortgage with right of occupancy, allow re-occupancy,
or otherwise dispose of ownership, any structure or dwelling unit
until either a certificate of continued building compliance or a temporary
certificate of continued building compliance has been issued by the
Township; and until the Township Water Department has been notified
of such change and/or a new water meter has been set.
(1) Changes of occupancy in multifamily dwellings shall be exempt from this requirement, as they are subject to Chapter
151 of the Code of Franklin Township.
(2) In the event of a resale of a structure in an "as
is" condition, a certificate of noncompliance shall be issued to allow
the transfer of title with full disclosure to all parties. No occupancy
shall be allowed until a structure meets the life safety requirements
in effect at the time the structure was built, as well as any code
or retrofit requirements that may affect the particular structure.
