Notes

Could not locate Maywood-specific lead inspection ordinance/fee page within time budget; Building Dept. contacts: Zoning Official Dina Lynch (dlynch@maywoodboro.org), Construction Official Gary Goodman (ggoodman@maywoodboro.org); general NJ state law applies (P.L.2021 c.182) pending local ordinance confirmation

Statewide 3-year certification rule applies here too

Regardless of Maywood Borough's specific process above, the certificate itself is valid three years statewide (P.L.2024, c.74) — not the two years some older DCA guidance still states. See the lead-safe hub for the full statewide timeline, deadlines, and landlord checklist.
