Each permit issued by the Inspection Department shall automatically expire, without notice, two years after the date of issuance if the work authorized by the permit has not been commenced. If after commencement, the work is discontinued for a period of two years, the permit therefor shall immediately expire and the improvements removed from the premises at the owner's expense. In the event of his or her failure to effect this removal within 30 days, the village shall do so at the owner's expense. No work authorized by any permit that has expired shall thereafter be performed until a new permit has been secured based on current codes.
