Any person expanding an existing building or structure located
within the Township of Ewing will be required to obtain a permit to
use temporary construction and/or sales trailers pending the completion
of construction. Applications will be made to the Construction Office.
Such permits shall be issued at the direction of the Township Construction
Official and shall be valid for a period of six months, with one extension
for up to six months to be granted in the discretion of the Township
Construction Official. Any additional application for extension beyond
one year must be made to the Township Council, which, in its discretion,
may grant an additional extension.
A temporary construction trailer may be at the site for the
period of construction, beginning with the issuance of a construction
permit and concluding before the final certificate of occupancy is
granted.
A temporary sales trailer may be at the site for the period
beginning with the posting of bonds for the project and concluding
before a certificate of occupancy is granted (or the last certificate
of occupancy in the case of a residential project).
When a permit for a construction and/or sales trailer expires,
the business, person or persons who applied for the permit must remove
the trailer from the property within five business days of such expiration.
If a temporary construction or sales trailer remains on the property
after the five business days allowed for removal, the business person
or persons shall be assessed, at the current tax rate, as if the trailers
were permanent fixtures.
Except as provided herein, violations of this article shall be punishable as provided in Chapter
1, Article
III, General Penalty, §
1-17, Subsection
B.
