Four types of zoning permits may be issued by the Zoning Inspector when activity is found to be in compliance with the requirements of the Zoning Code.
(a) Construction Permit. Before any structure, as defined in this Zoning Code is built, erected, enlarged, or placed on a property, a construction permit is required. The Zoning Inspector shall issue such a construction permit when he or she is satisfied that according to the information submitted by the applicant, the proposed structure will conform to all requirements of this code. Such permits shall be displayed on the subject property until construction is completed.
(b) Occupancy Permit. Following the construction of any new structure, occupancy of the new structure for any purpose shall not take place unless and until an occupancy permit is issued by the Zoning Inspector. The Zoning Inspector shall issue such an occupancy permit when he or she is satisfied that the proposed structure was constructed in accordance with the plans and other information previously submitted, and that the use for which the property is stated to be used for and is about to be placed conforms with the requirements of the Zoning Code.
(c) Conditional Use Permit. As described in Section 1135.07 the Planning Commission has the authority to issue a conditional use permit. Such permits authorize one particular use with or without specific conditions required by the Planning Commission.
(d) Demolition Permit. Before any structure may be demolished, a demolition permit must first be obtained.
(e) Sign Permit. Before any sign, except those exempted in Section 1127.03(f), may be placed, constructed or structurally altered, on or attached to a building, or on a parcel of land, a sign permit is required. (Ord. 2000-0-03. Passed 3-13-00.)
