No building permit for the construction or erection
of a dwelling or other building or structure on any lot shall be issued
by the Construction Official unless and until the street upon which
such lot abuts has been improved to the point where all utilities
are installed and in place, granite curbing, where such curbing is
required, is installed and the base course of the roadbed, as required
by ordinance, has been laid.
In cases where the topography or other condition
of the land requires a substantial amount of fill to be settled and
consolidated before construction of the street and the installation
of utilities can be undertaken, the Council, upon application, may
waive the requirements contained in this article as to any such street
or part thereof so affected.
Unless another penalty is expressly provided
herein, any person who violates any provision of this article shall,
upon conviction thereof, be punished by a fine not exceeding $500
or by imprisonment for a term not exceeding 90 days, or both. A separate
offense shall be deemed committed on each day during or on which a
violation occurs or continues.
