(B) Consents once given and filed shall not be withdrawn, and such petitions need not be renewed for the continuous conduct of the same business, whether by the same proprietor or not.
(C) It shall be unlawful to forge any name to any such petition or to falsely represent that the names thereon have been properly placed thereon if such is not the fact.
(D) Each consent when filed shall be accompanied by the affidavit of the person securing the signatures that each signature appearing therein was properly secured and written on, and that the petition contains the necessary number of signatures required by ordinance.
(E) The frontage consent requirements contained in this code shall not be construed to amend or change any zoning ordinance provision of the city; and no such provision shall be construed as permitting the erection of a structure or building, or the conduct of a business or the commission of any act, in any location where such structure, building, business or act is or are prohibited by any zoning ordinance of the city.
