(b) Disapproval. If the application for a permit, and the plans and specifications filed therewith, describe work which does not conform to the requirements of this Building Code or other pertinent laws or ordinances, or does not contain sufficient information, the Building Inspector shall not issue a permit but shall return the plans and specifications to the applicant with his or her refusal to issue such permit.
