GENERAL PROVISIONS
The following general regulations shall apply to all zoning districts:
(a) Except as otherwise provided, no building shall be erected, converted, enlarged, reconstructed or structurally altered, nor shall any structure or land be used:
(1) Except for a purpose permitted in the district in which the structure or land is located;

(b) The density and yard requirements of these regulations are minimum regulations for each and every building existing at the effective date of these regulations and for any building hereafter erected or structurally altered. No land required for yards or other open spaces about an existing building or any building hereafter erected or structurally altered shall be considered a yard or lot area for more than one building.
(c) Every building hereafter erected or structurally altered shall be located on a lot as herein defined and in no case shall there be more than one main building on a lot except as otherwise provided in these regulations.
(d) Cooperatives, condominiums and all other forms of property ownership do not affect the provisions of these regulations and all requirements shall be observed as though the property were under single ownership.

It shall be unlawful for any person to construct, alter or repair a building or structure or to commence the construction, alteration or repair of a building or structure, without first having obtained a building permit from the county planning department.

(c) An application for a building permit shall be submitted in a form as the director may prescribe. The application shall be made by the owner or lessee, or agent of either, or the architect, engineer or builder employed in connection with the proposed work. If the application is made by a person other than the owner in fee, when required by the director, it shall be accompanied by a duly verified affidavit of the owner in fee, or the person making the application that the proposed work is authorized by the owner in fee and that the person making the application is authorized to make the application. Such shall contain the full names and addresses of the applicant and of the owner, and if the owner is a corporate body, of its responsible officers. The application shall describe briefly the proposed work and shall give additional information as may be required by the director for an intelligent understanding of the proposed work.
