[HISTORY: 1973 Code §§ 125-1—125-10
adopted by the Board of Health as amended through October 13, 2016.
Amendments noted where applicable.]
Every person, firm or corporation that shall sell, offer or
expose for sale or distribute or engage in the business of processing
or otherwise handling of milk, milk products and fluid milk products
in the Borough of North Caldwell shall make application in writing
to the Board of Health of the borough for a license for that purpose.
Upon the granting of every such license, the Board of Health
shall furnish to the licensee one sign for each vehicle or conveyance
used by each licensee for the sale and distribution of milk products.
Such sign shall be conspicuously placed on the right side of such
vehicle or conveyance and shall not be removed therefrom until the
expiration or revocation of the license. The license issued for the
sale of milk in a store or other building or for a bottling plant,
depot or station shall be conspicuously displayed in such store, bottling
plant, depot or station. Such licenses shall not be sold, assigned
or transferred. Every license issued by the Board of Health for the
sale or distribution or bottling of milk shall be issued in the name
of the owner of the vehicle, store, bottling plant, depot or station
in which the milk shall be sold or handled.
The annual license fee for each wagon, vehicle, milk plant,
milk depot or premises used in the distribution or sale of milk products
shall be $5. (N.J.S.A. 24:10-57.10)
All license shall be renewed on or before the first day of January
next year after the issuance thereof.
Each license shall be granted on the condition that it is subject
to suspension or revocation for violation of any of the provisions
of this chapter or of any regulation promulgated by the Board of Health
thereunder.
All premises whereon milk, milk products or fluid milk products
are handled for the purpose of sale or distribution in the Borough
of North Caldwell shall be open for inspection by the Board of Health,
the Health Officer or its or his agents at any and all times.
It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to
sell, expose for sale, distribute or have in possession with intent
to sell or distribute in the Borough of North Caldwell milk, milk
products or fluid milk products which have been produced upon premises
whereon any person shall be ill with a communicable disease, except
under such conditions as may be imposed by the Board of Health; and
notice shall immediately be given said Board of Health upon knowledge
of the existence of any such disease upon such premises, and any person
failing to give such notice shall forfeit his license to sell or deliver
milk in the Borough of North Caldwell until special permission therefor
has been obtained from the Board of Health.
Nothing contained in this chapter shall be construed to require
a license for the possession, sale or delivery of condensed (preserved)
or evaporated milk in hermetically sealed cans, or the sale of milk
by the glass to be consumed on the premises of sale; provided, however,
that no milk or cream shall be sold or exposed or offered of sale
in the borough except from or in bottles or single service containers
which have been mechanically filled, capped and handled in conformity
and in accordance with the requirements of the statutory provisions
of the State Health Department regulations and of this chapter.
Samples of each of the products referred to in this chapter
must be furnished without cost to the authorized agents of the Board
of Health of the Borough of North Caldwell whenever required.
In addition to other remedies provided by law, any person who
violates any provision of or order promulgated under this chapter
