Before any new structure or use which could be defined as an airport hazard under this division may be constructed or established and before any such existing use or structure may be increased in height or otherwise altered, a permit to do so must be secured by the owner involved or his or her agent. All permit applications shall be made to the administrative agency having jurisdiction, or their designated representatives under § 3-202. If any administrative agency issues a permit erroneously allowing the beginning of erection of any structure or tree, such permit shall not constitute a variance or be construed in any manner to allow any person to penetrate the imaginary surfaces established. It will remain incumbent on the sponsor, builder, property owner or their agents, as the case may be, to prevent the creation of any object that will cause an airport hazard within the meaning of this division. When such permits are requested for construction and/or alteration within the city limits of a municipality the administrative agency having jurisdiction shall be the municipality itself and the county administrative agency shall have no jurisdiction within the city limits of municipalities.
