(A) No permit shall be issued for the construction of new building on any parcel of property not already served by a sidewalk unless the plans for such building provide for the construction of sidewalks within and along the public street right-of-way adjacent to the building site. Such sidewalks shall be installed at the time of construction or within such reasonable period of time thereafter not exceeding eight months as the City Building Supervisor may specify on the permit.
(B) Upon application of the owner and recommendation of the City Building Supervisor, the Building Supervisor when issuing a permit may waive the requirements that sidewalks be installed at the time of construction of a new building whenever it is determined either that sidewalks would be impractical to install because of topographic conditions or that because of the present and anticipated development of the area the installation of sidewalks at the time herein required would serve no useful purpose.
(C) The recommendation of the City Building Supervisor and the granting of a waiver by the Building Supervisor shall not in any way affect the authority of the City Council to thereafter undertake a local improvement involving the installation of sidewalks.
(D) The requirements of this section that sidewalks be installed when constructing a new building shall not apply to the construction of accessory buildings or the making of additions, alterations or repairs to existing buildings.
