Smoke Certificate Requirements
Purpose of Permits
The construction permit is a license that grants legal permission to begin construction and is required for all new buildings and structures. Work involving the altering and modifying of existing buildings and structures, renovations and the installation of fixtures and certain equipment also requires a construction permit. Permits allow the enforcement of the codes which have been adopted as law by the State of New Jersey and The Borough of Lincoln Park.No matter what the specific project may be, the enforcement of codes is carried out to protect the public health, safety and welfare of the residents. Please give us a call if you have questions concerning permit requirements.
