This bill amends existing legislation to include residential condominiums or cooperative buildings with four or fewer dwelling units in the definition of "excluded structure." As a result, these smaller buildings will not be subject to the structural integrity-related inspections and provisions established under P.L.2023, c.214 (C.52:27D-132.2 et al.). The amendment specifically adds this category to the list of structures that are exempt from these requirements, which already includes certain types of construction and buildings primarily consisting of rental dwellings.

The bill also clarifies the definitions of various terms related to structural integrity, such as "covered building," "primary load bearing system," and "structural inspector." By making these changes, the legislation aims to streamline the inspection process and ensure that smaller residential buildings are not burdened by the same regulations that apply to larger, more complex structures. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
