(A) Application for a permit shall be made in writing on a form prescribed by the township by the owner or owner's agent and shall contain the names and addresses of the owner(s); a description sufficient to identify the property for which the permit is sought; the nature of the construction, improvement, razing, or demolition, in detail; the amount of estimated cost thereof, and in the case of construction and improvement shall be accompanied by one set of dimensioned plans showing all habitable floors, basement, or cellar and foundation and with said plans being prepared, signed, and approved by all County and Commonwealth authorities as required by law. Provided, however, that the Township Secretary may waive the requirement for filing plans where the work involved is of a minor nature and the building operation is adequately described in the application.
(B) Any person who obtains a building permit pursuant to this section shall certify to the township that any construction waste of any nature caused by or due to the construction, improvement, razing and/or demolition of any building will be properly disposed of in a landfill approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection for the disposal of such construction waste. In furtherance of this subpart, any person issued a building permit shall, within one year of the date of the issuance of the permit, file with the Township Secretary the original of all disposal payment slips or records clearly indicating the type and amount of said construction waste and cost of disposal thereof and that said waste was disposed of in a landfill approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection for disposal of such construction waste. Said disposal payment slips may be signed by the appropriate landfill official or a solid waste hauler duly licensed by the township.
(C) Any person who obtains a permit for the purpose of constructing a building or structure and not for razing or demolition purposes shall be exempt from certifying that the construction waste caused by said construction (except any roofing material) has been disposed of in an approved landfill if said permit was issued for a building project the cost of construction of which is less than $1,000, and if said person states in writing the method employed by such person to dispose of the construction waste associated with the issuance of said permit.
