(a) An application for a license required by this chapter shall be in a form approved by Council and shall state the name and address of the applicant and the nature and extent of his or her interest in the single-family dwelling unit for which the license is desired. If the applicant is not the owner of such building, then the application shall also state the name and address of the owner. The application shall further state the location of the single-family dwelling unit for which the license is desired and the number of rooms therein, together with such other information as may be required by the Chief Building Inspector, and such application shall be accompanied with an application fee in the amount of three hundred dollars ($300.00). The owner of the single-family dwelling unit shall re-apply for a license required by this chapter two years from the initial inspection month.
(b) In the event that the initial inspection results in violations which need repairs, the owner of the single-family dwelling unit shall be granted a reasonable time (as determined by the Chief Building Inspector, or his or her designee) to complete the repairs, and contact the Chief Building Inspector to schedule a second inspection of the premises. In the event that the repairs have not been completed at the time of the second inspection, the Chief Building Inspector, or his or her designee, shall determine whether additional time shall be granted to complete the repair. Prior to the expiration date of time period for the additional repair, the applicant shall schedule a third inspection.

In the event that fourth and subsequent inspections are required, each fourth and subsequent inspection shall only be performed after the payment of a fifty dollar ($50.00) fee for such fourth and each subsequent inspection.
