The Codes Department conducts life safety inspections of residential rental properties within the Township to ensure the safety of the renters.
All owners of residential rental properties within West Whiteland Township must submit a rental inspection application to the Codes office ten days prior to re-occupancy by a new tenant unless exempt under section 250-11 (Multi unit Residential Property) of the rental ordinance.
A completed passed inspection with issued certificate of occupancy is required prior to new tenant occupancy.
Please note, the above information applies to residential rental units only. Commercial tenants are required to submit a use and occupancy (U&O) application, which is available under the Commercial Construction permit type.
