[Adopted 10-23-2006 by Ord. No. 2006-08]
Prior to the issuance of a building permit as
contained in Article X of Chapter 320, Zoning, for the construction
of any building or structure on any real estate zoned as a Business
District as defined in Article VII or as an Industrial District as
defined in Article VIII of said Zoning Ordinance, the applicant must
submit a complete set of construction plans for review by the Village
Engineer.
The Village Engineer shall have 15 days to review
said construction plans. No building permit shall be issued until
the Village Engineer certifies said construction plans as submitted
conform with the Village's ordinances and regulations. If the construction
plans do conform to the Village's ordinances and regulations and all
building permit and construction plan review fees have been paid by
the applicant, the authorized Village representative shall issue the
requested building permit. The Village Engineer or other authorized
Village representative shall notify the applicant within five days
after the expiration of the initial fifteen-day review period if the
construction plans do not conform with the Village's ordinances and
regulations and shall include in such notification a summary of the
ways in which the plans do not conform to the ordinances and regulations.
If said construction plans fail to conform to
the requirements of the Village's ordinances and regulations, no building
permit shall be issued until the construction plans are modified and
comply with said applicable ordinances and regulations. Modified plans
must be resubmitted to the Village Engineer and reviewed in accordance
with § 123-5.
A.
The Village President shall issue a stop-work order
if an applicant violates any of the provisions of this article. No
work shall proceed until the applicant complies with the provisions
of this article.
B.
If an applicant continues work in violation of the
stop-work order, the applicant shall be subject to a fine of not to
exceed $750 for each violation. Each day an applicant violates the
stop-work order shall be considered a separate violation. The foregoing
fine shall not be the Village's exclusive remedy for violation of
a stop-work order but shall be in addition to any other remedies provided
by law.[1]
In order to cover the costs of examining the
construction plans and other expenses incidental to the approval of
the construction plans, the applicant shall pay a fee as set forth
in Chapter 155, Fees. The appropriate fee shall be paid to the Village
Clerk at the time of filing the construction plans in addition to
payment of all other fees associated with the issuance of a building
permit under this article or any other Village ordinance as may be
in effect from time to time.
