§ 165-36. Stop orders and construction permit revocations.  


Latest version.
  • A. 
    Stop orders. In the event that a permittee shall fail to comply with any condition or regulation or provisions of an approved plan, the Borough Engineer or the Zoning Officer may issue a stop order on all construction work within the area encompassed by the approved plan, which order may include requirements for the prompt correction of adverse conditions. Thereafter, no construction work of any type shall be performed within the area of the approved plan except such work as is in accordance with the requirements of the Borough official as set forth in said order or in accordance with the approved plan.
    B. 
    Permit revocation. In the event of a failure to comply with any condition of an approved soil erosion and sediment control plan, tree removal plan or steep slope disturbance plan, upon recommendation of the Borough Engineer or Zoning Officer, the Borough may revoke any construction permit for any property upon which such noncompliance occurs or for any property affected by such noncompliance. The Borough may also seek to enjoin the violation or take such other steps as permitted by law.
    C. 
    Revocation of construction permit or certificate of occupancy. In the event of a failure to comply with any condition of final site plan approval, the Zoning Officer or Borough Engineer, on his or her initiative, may revoke the construction permit or certificate of occupancy, as the case may be, and seek to enjoin the violation or take such other steps as permitted by law.
