§ 17.12.022. Building permit—Required.

A.

Any owner of real property who intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish, or change the occupancy of a building or other structure, or to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas, mechanical or plumbing system, or to cause any such work to be performed, shall first make application to the Director for any permit required by the City Code to engage in such work and pay any applicable permit fees. An authorized agent of the owner may make application on behalf of the owner.

B.

All exterior projects in the Historic District, whether or not exempted from a building permit under subsection A of this section, still require a certificate of approval in accordance with Chapter 21.62.

C.

No building or other structure shall be demolished or moved until a permit has been obtained from the Director. If, in the judgment of the Director, the proposed new location of the building or other structure would significantly increase the fire hazard to surrounding buildings or other structures, a permit for moving the building or other structure shall not be issued.
