Construction Office
The Construction Office, commonly known as the Building Department, enforces the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code in Seaside Heights.
Anthony Cirz, Construction Official, is assisted by Melissa Nelson, Technical Assistant to the Construction Official, (T.A.C.O.) Together they oversee all construction, alteration, renovation, rehabilitation, maintenance, occupancy loads, use of buildings, structures and scheduling of all inspections.
Construction Permit Process
All permits are first submitted for approval to the Zoning Officer. ALL PERMITS REQUIRE A ZONING APPLICATION. (2) Sets of plans are required. Plans are then reviewed by one or more sub-code official(s), depending on the scope of the permit application (e.g., plumbing, mechanical, electric, fire, building). Reviews may take up to 20 business/working days, subject to inspectors’ schedules.
