Hereafter, no land use shall be commenced or changed and no structure shall be erected or enlarged until such use or enlarging has been reviewed for zoning compliance by the zoning administrator. The zoning administrator shall sign all building plans certifying zoning compliance for each building permit issued by the City. No certification of zoning compliance shall be issued where it appears that a proposed use or improvement is not a principal permitted use or accessory or is not in compliance with the letter of intent of the regulations of this title, unless some form of zoning relief has been obtained as provided by Chapters 17.08 and 17.09. No building permit may be issued by the City without a certification of zoning compliance. Any certification of zoning compliance based on any materially false statement in application or supporting documents is absolutely void ab initio and shall be revoked. No certification of zoning compliance shall remain valid if the use or structure it authorized became nonconforming in the district in which it is located.
