It was probably a good decision to appeal:Township code enforcement fines levied against a local businessman have been reduced from $5.6 million to $6,000 by Ocean County's Construction Board of Appeals. And how do you get $5.6 million in fines?Some of the fines levied against Sessa's building were for illegal change of use, worked performed without a permit, occupying an altered structure without a certificate of occupancy and failure to obtain the required inspections.
However, Sessa was unable to obtain a certificate of occupancy until his fines were cleared. He didn't realize the amount of the fines until he read about it in the Asbury Park Press in November. Can you imagine opening the paper to find out you owe a cool $5 million? Paying the remaining fine looks like a drop in the bucket at this point. |
