(a) Issuance to Contractors. No permit required by Chapter 1442 shall be issued for work to be undertaken by contract, except to a licensed contractor or general contractor or a registered subcontractor.
(Ord. 89-88. Passed 11-14-88.)
(b) Additional Limitations.
(1) Subcontractor registration list. No permit shall be issued prior to submitting the completed City subcontractor registration list, as applied to related construction.
(2) Cash bond. For each and every category not having a registered contractor assigned thereto, the permit applicant shall post a fifty dollar ($50.00) cash bond. Such bond shall in no manner be construed as a substitute for the contractor registration fee as stipulated in section 1444.07.
(3) Unregistered contractors. Job-site activities of an unregistered contractor shall constitute a violation of Section 1444.02 and shall cause forfeiture of the cash bond related to appropriate activities. The permit applicant shall be notified in writing.
(4) Work started prior to contractor registration. Where work for which contractor registration is required is started prior to registration, the fees required for such registration shall be doubled, but the payment of such double fees does not relieve any person from fully complying with the requirements of Section 1442.09.
