(a) (Amended by Ord. No. 157,619, Eff. 5/31/83.) The issuance of a permit is not an approval or an authorization of the work specified therein. A permit is merely an application for inspection, the issuance of which entitles the permittee to inspection of the work which is described therein.
EXCEPTION: Where the wiring exceeds the amount described in the original permit, the Department is authorized to make such additional inspection as is required and collect supplementary fee therefor by the supplemental permit system subject to the following provisions:
1. The fees charged shall be the difference in cost between the total fees due upon final inspection and fees paid at the time of the original application for inspection.
2. A fee as specified in LAMC Section 98.0415(d) shall be paid for issuing the supplemental permit. The fee required by this section shall be in addition to fees required elsewhere in the LAMC. (Amended by Ord. No. 185,587, Eff. 7/16/18.)
3. All fees shall apply only to that work installed for the same person as the “owner” in the permit.
4. All fees shall apply to installations where work has not been discontinued for a continuous period of more than 180 days.
(b) Neither the issuance of a permit nor the approval by this Department of any document shall constitute an approval of any violation of any provision of this Code or of any other law or ordinance, and a permit or other document purporting to give authority to violate any law shall not be valid with respect thereto.
