8-26-3: PERMIT:
All masonry or mason work placed in, upon, or in connection with any building or structure in the Village shall be done in accordance with the provisions of this Article and Chapter 7 of this Code entitled "Buildings" regulating materials, construction, alteration and inspection of such work. No masonry or mason work shall be done, placed in or upon, or in connection with any building or structure in the Village without a permit being first issued therefor by the department charged with the enforcement of the provisions of this Article pertaining thereto.
In every case where any masonry or mason work forms a part of the work to be done in, upon, or in connection with the construction of a building or structure for which a permit is required under the provisions of this Code, such permit shall be issued only upon the application of a person licensed as a mason contractor or employing mason as provided in this Article, or upon an application containing a statement that all mason work on such building or structure will be performed by a properly licensed mason contractor or employing mason. In case any mason work on any such building or structure shall be performed by any contractor or employing mason not licensed as herein provided, such permit shall be revoked, and the masonry work on such building or structure shall be stopped by order of the head of the department charged with the enforcement of the provisions of this Code pertaining thereto, and the person performing such work and the person having such work done shall be subject to the penalty hereinafter prescribed; provided, however, that any property owner doing his own masonry work on his own premises shall not be required to obtain a license, or post a bond. Said property owners shall be required to install said masonry work in accordance with the Village Code, and said work shall be approved by the department charged with the enforcement of this Article pertaining thereto.
