Before proceeding beyond the foundation for a main building, the applicant shall request a foundation check. The Village Engineer shall check the grade of the foundation to determine whether it has been constructed in accordance with the approved site plan. The Inspector of Buildings shall not permit the continuation of construction until the grade of the foundation conforms to the approved grade.
Before applying for a Certificate of Occupancy, the applicant shall request a grading check. The Village Engineer shall check the final grading and drainage of the property. The Inspector of Buildings shall not issue a Certificate of Occupancy until the final grading and drainage of the property conforms to the approved site plan.
The cost and expense of the review of the site plan and the grade checks made by the Village Engineer shall be borne by the applicant. At the time of submission of the site plan, the applicant shall prepay a fee with the Village Treasurer of two hundred dollars ($200.00) in the case of a single-family home. For a commercial and industrial building the applicant shall prepay three hundred dollars ($300.00) for a parcel up to one acre and eighty dollars ($80.00) for each additional acre or fraction thereof in excess of one acre.
If significant changes are made to the site plan or if reinspection of the footer grade or final grading is necessary, an additional fee as determined by the Village Engineer shall be required in order to defray the expense of such re-review or reinspection; but the amount of such additional fee shall not be in excess of the originally required fee.
The cost and expense of such review and grade checks shall be deducted from such prepaid fee. If such expenditures exceed such prepaid fee, the excess shall, upon demand, be paid forthwith into the Municipal Treasury prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. The Inspector of Buildings shall not issue a Certificate of Occupancy until all Village fees have been paid.
