9-11-1: PERMIT REQUIREMENTS:
   A.   Sketch Required: Before erection of any sign constituting an independent structure ("structure" being defined as any construction requiring a permanent location), a drawing of the sign shall be submitted to the building inspector/code enforcement officer. The drawing need not be a formal architectural drawing, but must be a sketch showing the dimensions, nature of construction, materials to be used in erecting the sign, and location with reference to streets and ways.
   B.   Denial Of Permit: If the building inspector/code enforcement officer finds that the sign is or would be unsafe or insecure so as to be a menace to the public or would create dangerous situations by the obstruction of vision, he shall not issue a permit for the construction of such sign.
   C.   Inspection Fee: The building inspector/code enforcement officer may require staff review of the construction drawings. If an inspection is required, the associated inspection fee shall apply. The city council shall establish a schedule of fees for such action by resolution. The schedule of fees may be altered or amended from time to time by action of the city council with a resolution.
