(A) Before proceeding with the erection, enlargement, alteration, repair or removal of any building or structure in the Village, a permit for such erection, enlargement, alteration, repair, or removal shall first be obtained by the owner or the owner's agent from the Building Commissioner, and it shall be unlawful to proceed with the erection, enlargement, alteration, repair or removal of any building or any structural part thereof unless such permit shall first have been obtained from the Building Commissioner. If the work or operations called for and permitted by the said permit are not started within ninety (90) days after the date the permit is issued, or if such work or operations are not completed within a reasonable time and in any event within six (6) months from the date the permit issued, then the permit shall be void, and no operations thereunder shall be begun or completed until an extended permit is obtained by the owner or the owner's agent, and a fee of fifty percent (50%) of the original cost of the permit shall be paid by the owner or the owner's agent for each extended permit. The Building Commissioner may extend the validity of an issued permit without payment of any additional permit fee if the Building Commissioner determines, in the Building Commissioner's reasonable discretion, that the owner or the owner's agent has completed a substantial portion of the work or operations called for under the existing permit and that the remaining work or operations will be completed in a period of six (6) months or less.
