Within three (3) days after notification that a building or premises or part thereof is ready for occupancy or use, it shall be the duty of the zoning official to make a final inspection thereof and to issue a certificate of occupancy if the land, building or part thereof and the proposed use thereof are found to conform with the provisions of this title; or if such certificate is refused, to state such refusal in writing, with the cause, and immediately forward such notice of refusal to the applicant.

3. A Temporary Certificate of Occupancy will not be issued where improvements relate to life safety requirements or substantial completion.
