No change shall be made to a building, open lot or portion thereof inconsistent with the last issued certificate of occupancy or, where applicable, inconsistent with the last issued certificate of completion for such building or open lot or which would bring it under some special provision of this code or other applicable laws or rules, unless and until the commissioner has issued a new or amended certificate of occupancy.

For purposes of this section:

2. The date of the change of the address or the block and/or lot numbers shall be the date such change is made effective by the borough president or the department of finance.
