After the adoption by Council of the renewal plan for a renewal district, no building permit shall be issued for the improvement or enlargement of any existing structure or for the construction of a new structure within such renewal district without the approval in writing of the Director of the Department of Economic and Community Development, based upon a determination that the proposed improvement is not inconsistent with the renewal plan; provided, however, that such a permit may be issued for the repair of an existing structure or structures when such repair is necessary to the immediate preservation of the public health and safety.
