Includes residential condominiums or cooperative buildings with four or fewer dwelling units in definition of excluded structure for purpose of certain structural integrity-related inspections.
This bill exempts small residential condominium and cooperative buildings with four or fewer units from mandatory structural integrity inspections by adding them to the list of "excluded structures" under New Jersey's 2023 building safety law (P.L.2023, c.214). Previously, such buildings were not automatically exempt, but this amendment ensures they are excluded from the inspection requirements that apply to larger residential buildings. Owners of these small properties will no longer need to undergo the structural inspections mandated for "covered buildings" under the law. This change aligns with existing exemptions for single-family homes and other specific building types.
