Any person whose trade license is suspended or revoked pursuant to this section may not be issued a new trade license during the period of suspension or revocation. Where the trade license holder is an entity, then no controlling person(s) of that entity, as defined in Section 4-4-005 of the Municipal Code, may be issued a new trade license during the period of suspension or revocation.
The building official must adopt and publish uniform procedures consistent with due process for proceedings to contest a decision under Section 14A-3-305. Following a hearing, the building official must issue a written decision to uphold, modify, or reverse the suspension. The written decision of the building official following a hearing is a final administrative decision, subject to judicial review as provided by law.
The building official and any other City official charged with responsibility for administering the Chicago Construction Codes is authorized to issue a stop work order directing that the following prohibited activities cease and desist immediately:
1. The construction, demolition, rehabilitation, or relocation of any structure that is being done or has been done without a permit required by the Municipal Code.
2. The construction, demolition, rehabilitation, or relocation of any structure which is being done or has been done contrary to a permit or contrary to permitted construction documents.
3. The maintenance or operation of any building, structure, premises, or equipment without any permit or certificate required by the Municipal Code.
4. The construction, demolition, rehabilitation, or relocation of any structure which is being done by a person lacking a trade license for such work required by the Municipal Code or a person required by the Municipal Code to be listed on the permit application who was not listed.
No stop work order may be issued to prohibit the construction, demolition, rehabilitation, or relocation of any structure that is being performed pursuant to a valid permit issued by the building official for any reason not specified in Section 14A-3-306.1, unless such order is necessary to prevent an imminent threat to the safety of workers or the public.
A stop work order must be in writing. The stop work order must be either given to the owner or the person performing the work or posted at the work site. Upon issuance of a stop work order, the cited work must immediately cease.
(Amend Coun. J. 12-14-22, p. 58278, Art. II, § 3)
