�� 

An Act concerning inspection process for certain

���� Be It 
Enacted by the Senate and General Assembly of 
the State of New Jersey:

���� 1.� Section 13 of P.L.1967, 
c.76 (C.55:13A-13) is amended to read as follows:

���� 13.� (a)� Each multiple 
dwelling and each hotel shall be inspected for the purpose of determining the 
extent to which each hotel or multiple dwelling complies with the provisions of 
P.L.1967, c.76 (C.55:13A-1 et seq.) and regulations promulgated hereunder.� The 
commissioner shall establish by regulation the frequency of inspections, which 
shall be conducted as follows:

���� (1)�� each hotel shall be 
inspected at least once every five years; and

���� (2)�� each multiple dwelling 
shall be categorized into the following tiers based upon the number of 
reinspections required to abate the violations that were served upon the owner 
following an initial inspection:

���� (i)��� a multiple dwelling in 
which no violations are found or all violations have been abated by the first 
reinspection shall be placed in the highest tier and shall next be inspected in 
seven years, and the inspection fee shall be due at that time;

���� (ii)�� a multiple dwelling in 
which all violations have been abated by the second or third reinspection shall 
be placed in the middle tier and shall next be inspected in five years, and the 
inspection fee shall be due at that time;

���� (iii)� a multiple dwelling in 
which all violations have not been abated by the third reinspection shall be 
placed in the lowest tier and shall next be inspected in two years, and the 
inspection fee shall be due at that time.

���� (3)�� notwithstanding the 
provisions of paragraph (2) of this [section] subsection 
to the contrary, if the commissioner determines that tiered inspection 
schedules do not adequately protect the health and safety of residents of 
multiple dwellings, the commissioner may, by regulation, require that cyclical 
inspections for multiple dwellings occur once every five years.

���� (4)� Notwithstanding the 
authority of the commissioner to enter and inspect without notice pursuant to 
subsection (b) of section 6 of P.L.1967, c.76 (C.55:13A-6), prior to the 
inspection of a multiple dwelling conducted pursuant to paragraph (2) of this 
subsection, if the multiple dwelling is held under a condominium or cooperative 
form of ownership, the commissioner shall, no less than 30 days and no more 
than 180 days in advance of the inspection, issue to the owner a written notice 
that shall:

���� (i) �state the date when 
the inspection shall occur; 

���� (ii)� provide information 
on how an owner of a unit within the multiple dwelling may request an alternate 
Saturday inspection date pursuant to section 3 of P.L.��� , c.��� (C.������� ) 
(pending before the Legislature as this bill); and

���� (iii)� provide information, 
pursuant to section 2 of P.L.��� , c.��� (C.������� ) (pending before the 
Legislature as this bill), on the elements of the property that are to be 
inspected.� 

���� (b)�� Within 30 days of the 
most recent inspection, the owner of each hotel shall file with the 
commissioner, upon forms provided by the commissioner, an application for a 
certificate of inspection.� Said application shall include such information as 
the commissioner shall prescribe to enforce the provisions of this law.� Said 
application shall be accompanied by a fee as follows: $15 per unit of dwelling 
space for the first 20 units of dwelling space in any building or project, $12 
per unit of dwelling space for the 21st through 100th unit in any building or 
project, $8 per unit of dwelling space for the 101st through 250th unit in any 
building or project, and $5 per unit of dwelling space for all units over 250 
in any building or project, except that in the case of hotels open and 
operating less than six months in each year the fee shall be one-half that 
which would otherwise be required, or, as the case may be, the fees established 
by rule for each of the foregoing pursuant to subsection (e) of this section.� 
A certificate of inspection and the fees therefor shall not be required more 
often than once each inspection cycle.

���� Additionally, there shall be 
reinspection fees for hotels in the amount of $10 for each dwelling unit 
reinspected or, as the case may be, the fees established by rule for each of 
the foregoing pursuant to subsection (e) of this section.
