Sample Operating Permit Form

Each municipality's program for administration and enforcement of the State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code must include the features described in Part 1203 of Title 19 of the NYCRR.  One feature that must be included in each municipality's administration and enforcement program is a provision requiring Operating Permits for conducting certain specified activities or using certain specified categories of buildings.  A sample of a local law which includes a provision requiring Operating Permits is available here. 

The following guidelines and sample forms are provided to assist municipalities in preparing application forms and Operating Permit forms. These forms are only samples, and are intended to be used solely as a guide to assist municipalities in preparing forms appropriate for use within their jurisdictions.  Each municipality should consult with its own legal counsel in preparing its application and permit forms.
