A certificate of approval before a unit is re-occupied

Edison's Division of Health requires a certificate of approval, issued after inspection, before a dwelling unit is re-occupied. The certificate is $75 and a reinspection $100.

The reinspection costs more than the inspection, and the certificate is what stands between a turnover and a re-let. §17-1.11 requires the request at least seven business days before reoccupancy, so the vacancy assumption must include that minimum lead time as well as the work.
