A variance may be granted if the commissioner determines that the applicant is in compliance with the requirements for a permanent variance as set forth in subsection c. of section 15 of this act. The variance shall not be deemed to be a variation approved pursuant to the "State Uniform Construction Code Act," P.L. 1975, c.217 (C.52:27D-119 et seq.) or the "Uniform Fire Safety Act," P.L. 1983, c.383 (C.52:27D-192 et al.) or any other building or fire safety standard or code.
Space leased by a public employer shall be subject to current health or safety rules and regulations. Any deficiency, including a deficiency resulting either from occupant use or deferred maintenance by the lessor, shall be subject to correction in accordance with the governing rules and regulations at the time that the deficiency is cited by the commissioner or the Commissioner of Health. However, a lease of any duration may not be entered into unless the leased property is in conformance with such rules and regulations as are in effect at the time the lease is executed.
No fire company, first aid, or rescue squad, whether paid, part-paid, or volunteer, shall be required to pay to the Department of Labor and Workforce Development or the Department of Health any registration or inspection fee imposed by rule or regulation with regard to the filling of air cylinders for respiratory equipment used by the fire company, first aid, or rescue squad.
