the following:
1. Open permits for building/construction. Please let us know if a list
of permits is satisfactory, or if you require copies. Attached you
will find a sample Property Summary Report, which is a list of permits
produced by our Construction office for any property within the
Township.
2. Closed permits for building and construction within the last 20 years.
Please see item #1 comment.
