Uniform Construction Code Board of Appeals Seeking Membership - Plumbing Subcode Official
Sussex County Uniform Construction Code Board of Appeals
Seeking Membership
Plumbing Subcode Official (Alternate)
The Sussex County Board of Appeals operates with ten members, five regular members and five alternate members. Members of this Board volunteer their services. Meetings are held on a monthly basis, unless no business is pending. The Board consists of a licensed architect/engineer/building subcode official, a person qualified as an electrical subcode official, a person qualified as a plumbing subcode official, a certified fire official, and a person qualified as a fire protection subcode official. Each one of these positions also has an alternate member of the same stature. The service of an alternate member is only required when the regular member is unavailable to cover a meeting or they have a conflict of interest with a particular case. When appeals involve fire, the fire official and the fire protection official must be present; likewise for the trades in their specialty areas and the architect and/or engineer in building or structural areas.
The Board currently has an opening in the alternate Plumbing Subcode Official category. Anyone who is interested and is qualified as a Plumbing Subcode Official may express their interest by submitting a resume and cover letter to Michelle L. Mezger, Secretary, UCC Board of Appeals, County Administrative Center, One Spring Street, 3rd Floor, Newton, NJ 07860, via email at mlmezger@sussex.nj.us or via fax at 973-579-0444.
