(A) The Building Commissioner is hereby authorized and directed to administer and enforce all of the provisions of this subchapter. Whenever in the buildings regulations, it is provided that anything must be done to the approval of or subject to the direction of the Building Commissioner or any other officer of the Board of Commissioners, this shall be construed to give such officer only the discretion of determining whether the rules and standards established by ordinance have been complied with; and no such provision shall be construed as giving any officer discretionary powers as to what such regulation, codes, or standards shall be, or power to require conditions not prescribed by ordinances or to enforce ordinance provisions in an arbitrary or discriminatory manner.
(B) The Building Commissioner, after having been designated as the officer of a single agency to administer and enforce building regulations, shall be authorized to issue building permits, collect fees, perform inspections, order correction of violations of building regulations, and authorize occupancy of buildings and structures situated within the unincorporated areas of the county.
