A. It shall be unlawful for any owner, agent, or architect or for any contractor or builder engaged in constructing, erecting, enlarging, remodeling, altering, repairing, raising, lowering, underpinning, moving, or wrecking of any building, structure, or portion thereof, to make any departure from the plans as approved by the building official without first obtaining the written consent of the building official for any such change.
Any departure from the approved plans involving a violation of the requirements of any law or ordinance or any such change in the plans or construction without the consent of the Village Board shall operate to annul the permit which has been issued for such work and shall render the same void, and all fees paid shall be forfeited.
B. In any case where work is done under a permit authorizing the erection, alteration, or repair of a building or structure, which work is contrary to the approved plans, or any law or ordinance, the building official shall have power to at once stop such work and to order all persons engaged therein to stop and desist therefrom. Such work shall not be resumed until satisfactory assurance has been given to the building official that it will be done properly and lawfully and according to the approved plans or until said building official has consented, in writing, to the changes made in such approved plans. The building official may request that a new permit must be issued before work proceeds. The usual fee for the permit shall be paid by the contractor doing such work prior to the start of any work.
C. No contractor or builder shall begin any work on any building or structure for which a permit is required until such permit shall have been issued. In case any work is begun on the erection, alteration, repair, or removal of any building or structure without a permit authorizing the same being issued therefor, the building official shall have power to at once stop work and to order any and all persons engaged therein to stop and desist therefrom until the proper permit is issued.
