No food service establishment may operate in the Township unless it has received an FSE grease trap/interceptor permit.
A. Permits shall be issued upon submission of the Township’s FSE permit application form, all supplementary documentation required thereby and approval of the Township Engineer. Such application shall require sufficient information to demonstrate that any proposed grease trap or grease interceptor meets the applicable requirements of this Part 9.
B. Permits shall be issued for a period of 5 years. After 5 years from the original permit issue date, the permit may be renewed by submitting a new permit application; however, no new application fee shall be assessed.
C. Applicants shall pay a one-time application fee, an annual inspection fee and any required reinspection fee in such amounts as provided by resolution of the Township Council. [Ord. 563]
D. An FSE permit is required whether or not an FSE is required to have a grease trap/interceptor. Any non-cooking establishment required to have a grease trap/interceptor pursuant of § 18-906 may not operate without a permit. [Ord. 563]
E. Permits shall be issued only for specific locations and specific owners or operators of an FSE. Upon any sale, lease or transfer of the premises for which the permit has been issued, a new permit shall be required. Any new or changed conditions of operation upon which approval of the permit was based shall also require that a new permit be issued.
F. Any permit may be revoked by the Township if the permittee is found to be in violation of any provision of this Part 9 or any condition of the permit.
G. Approvals issued pursuant to this Part 9 do not relieve the applicant of the responsibility to secure required permits or approvals for activities regulated by any other applicable code, rule, act or ordinance.
