[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Committee of the Township
of Barnegat: Article I, 6-15-81 as Ord. No. 1981-17. Amendments noted where applicable.]
The purpose of this ordinance is to implement the provisions
of N.J.S.A. 17:36-8 et seq. in order to ensure that, prior to the
payment by insurance companies of fire damage claims in excess of
two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500.), all taxes and assessments
and other municipal liens upon the real property involved are paid
in full to the municipality.
It shall be unlawful for any insurance company to pay any fire
damage claim in excess of two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500.)
within the Township of Barnegat unless and until said insurance company
has obtained an official certificate of search as to all taxes, assessments
and other municipal liens upon the real property involved in said
insurance claim. Thereafter, if said search reveals any open charges
or liens against the real property involved, said insurance company,
unless receiving a resolution from the municipality as hereinafter
provided, shall pay directly to the township the amount of the liens
appearing on the official certificate and such other recorded liens
or related charges as may be certified to by the township and forwarded
to the insurance company. However, if an appeal is taken as the amount
of any lien or charge, then the provisions of N.J.S.A. 17:36-10 shall
apply.
If the governing body of the Township of Barnegat feels that
it is in the best interest of the township, it may enter into an agreement
with the owner of any fire-damaged property to pay in full all delinquent
taxes, assessments or other municipal liens by installments pursuant
to N.J.S.A. 54:5-19 or for the redemption of a tax sale certificate
by installment payments pursuant to N.J.S.A. 54:5-65. Such agreement
shall be based upon the municipality being satisfied that the claim
for fire damage is to be used to restore or improve the fire-damaged
property. Any insurance company receiving a certified copy of such
resolution of agreement by the governing body of the Township of Barnegat
is hereby authorized to make full payment on the claim to the insured
party.
Any person who violates any one (1) or more of the provisions
of this ordinance shall be subject to a fine of not more than five
hundred dollars ($500.) for each separate offense and/or confinement
in the Ocean County Jail for a period of not more than ninety (90)
days. In the case of a continuing violation or violations, a fine
of not more than five hundred dollars ($500.) may be assessed for
each day that said violation or violations continue unabated, until
such time as said violation or violations are corrected. A separate
offense shall be deemed committed on each day during or on which a
violation occurs or continues.
This ordinance repeals any inconsistent ordinance or ordinances,
or part or parts thereof.
This ordinance shall become effective upon final passage and
publication as required by law and upon filing of said ordinance with
the New Jersey State Commissioner of Insurance.
