A. Improvements and Repairs to Property. All owners of property falling within the purview of this Code are required to obtain a building permit from the City prior to commencing any improvement upon, or repair to, the property unless the work is exempt from a building permit under the building codes adopted under Section 150.01
of Chapter 150. Any person renting, leasing, or holding an option on property within City will be required to submit the owner's approval for any improvements upon, or repairs to, such property when applying for a building permit. Applications for building permits shall be made on the forms provided by the City.
B. Permit Required for Repair of Non-Conforming Use. In no case will any improvements be placed upon property that is in violation of any section of this Code nor will any repairs be made to property held to be in non-conformance with this Code unless a building permit is obtained from the City.
C. Fees. Before any certificate or permit will be issued, all applicable fees must be paid to the City. All fees are established by separate City resolutions that will be periodically reevaluated by the Council.
