Notes

Ordinance language (ecode360) references a 'certified lead evaluation contractor... provided or obtained by the Township,' consistent with either a Township-arranged or owner-hired contractor; no rental unit may be occupied until a valid lead-based paint evaluation is on file with the Township.

Statewide 3-year certification rule applies here too

Regardless of Winslow Township'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.
