Anything else to the contrary notwithstanding, all maintenance and repair work shall be excluded from coverage under the uniform building code, provided that:
A. The materials used to replace existing materials are of the same type and approximate size; so that the maintenance and repair work does not result in any fundamental construction change.
B. That all maintenance work shall be subject to inspection and approval by the city building inspector when, at his discretion, such inspection is necessary. (Ord. 174, 6-10-1957; amd. 1972 Code; Ord. 1-74-75, 8-21-1974)
