[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Committee
of the Township of Lebanon as indicated in article histories. Amendments
noted where applicable.]
[Adopted by Ord. No. 14-1984; amended by Ord. No. 2002-08 (Sec. 2-9.1 of the 1985
Revised General Ordinances)]
The laws of the State of New Jersey require
each municipality to provide certain public health activities and
services; and such activities and services can, in most instances,
be best provided on a regional basis. The Hunterdon County Health
Department is the most appropriate regional authority for such purpose;
and such regional services and activities have heretofore been provided
without direct cost to this Township, but now the County Health Department
will make a direct charge for its services.
A.
The following fees and charges are herewith established:
(1)
For the filing of an application and plans to locate
and construct an individual sewage disposal system, plan review, site
inspection, issuance of permit and installation inspections: $200.
(2)
For the filing of an application and plans for a permit
to alter an existing individual sewage disposal system and issue said
permit: $100.
(3)
For filing an application for repair: $50.
(4)
Application renewal fee: $50.
B.
All fees shall be payable directly to the Hunterdon
County Board of Health Department and shall be paid at the time of
inspection.
The Hunterdon County Health Director is hereby
designated as the Health Officer of the Township of Lebanon.
[Adopted 2-2-2005 by Ord. No. 2005-03[1]]

Editor's Note: This ordinance specifically
repealed all previous ordinances establishing a schedule of fees,
and it stated that it shall serve as the sole source for establishing
all copies, permits, licenses, photographs and search fees.
[Amended 9-2-2020 by Ord.
No. 2020-08]
A request for records from the Township of Lebanon
shall incur a charge equal to the actual cost of duplication by the
Township. Said costs shall be set forth by a schedule prepared by
the Municipal Clerk and approved by the Township Committee and updated
as needed to reflect current costs.
The Township of Lebanon may impose a special
service charge to cover the cost of labor where complying with the
request for documents involves the use of technology. For a request
for records in a medium not routinely used by the Township of Lebanon
and requiring a substantial amount of manipulation and/or programming
of information technology, the Township of Lebanon may charge, in
addition to the cost of duplication, a special reasonable charge related
to its labor cost of making the copy.
[Amended 4-18-2007 by Ord. No. 2007-7; 11-14-2012 by Ord. No.
2012-06; 5-15-2019 by Ord. No. 2019-04; 9-2-2020 by Ord. No. 2020-08; 8-18-2021 by Ord. No. 2021-10]
