No person shall erect, or repair, over any sidewalk, or street, any wooden shed or awning, or any wooden shed for the support of an awning, or erect upon any street, or sidewalk, any post for the support of any awning. If any person shall violate this section, then each day that the above forbidden structure shall remain after notice shall constitute a separate violation; provided, that this shall not be construed to prevent the erection over the sidewalk of cloth awnings supported upon metallic frames firmly suspended from the building; attached wooden or metal awnings; or covered colonnades or arcades. Any structure extending over a sidewalk shall be built in compliance with the State Building Code.
