Neighborhood eras
Haines Acres was built from 1954 to 1973 across 800 acres, and Fayfield developed from about 1937 to 1986. Decks added to homes from those decades may predate the statewide Uniform Construction Code, so check the ledger, footings and fasteners before resurfacing.
Permits
The township administers the Uniform Construction Code for its residents, either directly or through a third-party agency. Ask the township about zoning setbacks for decks before you design.
