What You Need To File

Every NJ permit needs an F100 construction jacket plus the relevant trade subcodes — F120 (electrical), F140 (fire), F160 (plumbing), and F170 (building). Wayne is in Passaic County and reviews applications against the same statewide NJ Uniform Construction Code as every other municipality.

Fees follow the NJ UCC schedule statewide and are based on estimated project value, not flat rates. For an exact figure on your Wayne job, confirm with the township or let ClearPath calculate it from your scope of work before you file.

Utility Service (ESI) Applications

Any change in service amperage requires a separate utility service (ESI) application — PSE&G or JCPL, depending on your property's address — filed in parallel with the municipal permit rather than after it.

What We File

✓F100 — Construction Jacket
✓F120 — Electrical Subcode
✓F140 — Fire Subcode
✓F160 — Plumbing Subcode
✓F170 — Building Subcode
✓Utility ESI Application (PSE&G/JCPL)

Keys to a Fast Approval

✓File the F100 jacket with the correct trade subcodes together, not piecemeal
✓Include the utility ESI application whenever service amperage changes
✓Submit a complete, correct package — incomplete applications trigger correction notices that add time

ClearPath's Wayne Process

ClearPath files the F100 jacket and the correct subcode sections together with the matching utility ESI application, for a flat fee, so nothing is submitted piecemeal. We manage every correction notice the township sends back and track the job through to final approval, so you are not the one chasing paperwork.
