(A) A permit, using forms furnished by the Building Commissioner, shall be obtained before beginning new construction or altering or repairing existing buildings or structures if the alterations or repairs affect structural strength, sanitary conditions, fire hazards, or pose a threat to personal or public safety. All permits shall be issued by the Building Commissioner, and all fees provided for herein shall be paid to the Clerk-Treasurer.
(B) It shall be unlawful for any person to do any work for which a permit is required on any new or old structure, including repairs or alterations, unless the person doing the work shall maintain a building permit for the work in full and conspicuous place on the site of the work until the work shall be finished and finally inspected. No permit issued pursuant to this code shall be removed from the site of the work authorized thereby until permission for its removal is granted by the Building Commissioner.
