Drop completed applications in the can outside the rear door to borough hall offices.  We will collect and review and will call you with any questions.  Once the application has been reviewed, we will call you with the amount due.  You can then drop a check in the payment drop-box on the rear wall of borough hall.  We will collect the payment and will then issue the permit and will mail to you.

Exterior inspections can still be done in person.  Interior inspections can be done using photos or virtually.  If the property is vacant, the interior inspection may be done in person but that determination will be made when you contact us to schedule.  To schedule an inspection, email Tara at tweiss@mountephraim-nj.com or call 856-931-1546, ext. 205.
