[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Council of the Township
of Evesham 6-14-2023 by Ord. No. 11-6-2023. Amendments noted where applicable.]
This section implements the provisions of P.L. 2022, c. 92,[1] requiring business owners, owners of rental units, and
owners of owner-occupied multifamily units to maintain certain liability
insurance minimums, and requiring the creation of a municipal business
insurance registry.
[1]
Editor's Note: See N.J.S.A. 40A:10A-1 et seq.
A.
Except as provided in § 60-2B, business owners or owners
of rental units located in the Township of Evesham must maintain liability
insurance for negligent acts and omissions, at a policy minimum of
$500,000 for combined property damage and bodily injury to, or death
of, one or more persons in any one accident or occurrence.
B.
Owners of multifamily dwellings located in the Township of Evesham,
with four or fewer units, of which one unit is owner-occupied, must
maintain liability insurance for negligent acts and omissions, at
a policy minimum of $300,000 for combined property damage and bodily
injury to, or death of, one or more persons in any one accident or
occurrence.
A.
Owners subject to the minimum liability insurance requirements provided in this chapter must annually register a certificate of insurance issued by the owner's insurance company to demonstrate compliance with § 60-2.
B.
To complete annual registration, the owner must file following documents
with the Township Clerk or the Clerk's designee:
(1)
A valid certificate of insurance supplied by the insurance company
that issued the policy;
(2)
Business name, if applicable;
(3)
Name of business owner or property owner;
(4)
Address of business or property;
(5)
Date of issuance and expiration of insurance policy;
(6)
Contact information for business or property owner; and
(7)
Fifty dollars administrative fee.
Upon satisfaction of the registration requirements in § 60-3, the Township Clerk shall issue a certificate of registration to the owner. This certificate of registration shall act as proof of compliance with this chapter. A certificate of registration shall be valid for one calendar year from the date of issuance.
If an owner fails to maintain the required level of insurance
or fails to file annual registration, the Township may impose a fine
against the owner of not less than $500 but no more than $5,000 by
way of summary proceeding pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2A:58-10.
