No alterations or additions shall be made in existing wiring in any building, nor shall any building be wired for the placing of any electric lights, motors, heating devices or any apparatus requiring the use of electrical current, nor shall any alterations be made in the wiring of any building after inspection without first notifying the building official or designee and securing a permit therefor. Minor repair work, alterations costing twenty five dollars ($25.00) or less, or additions of three (3) outlets or less, and not requiring additional circuits need not be inspected, but must be reported to the building official or designee. Within the fire limits, however, such additions and alterations shall be inspected, but no inspection fees will be required.
Applications for such permits describing such work shall be made by the person installing the same on application blanks furnished by the city. The permit, when issued, shall be to such applicant. (Ord. 2004-08, 8-2-2004)
