Requires enforcing agency to conduct inspection of construction in specified time window.
This bill requires municipal construction agencies to conduct building inspections within a 2.5-hour time window and provide 24-hour advance notice to property owners. If agencies fail to meet these requirements, owners can file complaints online with the Department of Community Affairs, which would investigate and potentially impose penalties. The bill aims to improve inspection timeliness for construction projects, directly affecting property owners, contractors, and local building departments. Agencies must establish processes to meet these requirements or face potential penalties for repeated failures in meeting inspection deadlines.
