COMMERCIAL & RENTAL PROPERTY

 

Owners of Commercial and Rental Properties should check with the Zoning Officer before starting a project.

 

A Zoning Permit will be required for the project. In addition, the Zoning Officer may need to refer the application to the Planning Board for approval.

Renovations and replacement work will need Building Permits from the Construction Department.  We have a shared service with Byram Township located at 10 Mansfield Drive, Stanhope, NJ  07874   (973) 347-2500 x 123

 

 A Land Use Board Application is required for all Site Plans, Subdivisions, Amendments to Site Plans, Site Plan Waivers, variance requests, and Conceptual Reviews. Contact the Planning Board Secretary for an application.
