The applicant may seek approval of the Certificate of Appropriateness concurrently with or subsequent to approval of the Site Plan for the PUD project.
(b) Exemptions. No Certificate of Appropriateness shall be required for the following:
(1) Routine maintenance and repair activities resulting in no change in external appearance;
(2) Alterations to buildings and properties which are exclusively residential in use; and
(3) Alterations or demolition mandated by the Commissioner of Building and Housing to address an immediate danger to human life or health and, therefore, requiring prompt repair or removal, in accordance with the provisions of division (i) of Section 3103.09 of the Cleveland Building Code.
