A.
The
HPC shall review the application for a building or demolition permit
or for a certificate of appropriateness and issue or deny the permit
with forty-five (45) days of receipt of the application. Written notice
of the approval or denial of the application for a certificate of
appropriateness shall be provided to the applicant and the Building
Inspector within seven (7) days following the determination and shall
be accompanied by a certificate of appropriateness in the case of
an approval.
B.
A certificate
of appropriateness shall become void unless construction is commenced
within six (6) months of date of issuance. Certificates of appropriateness
shall be issued for a period of eighteen (18) months and are renewable.
If the project is not completed according to the guidelines provided
in the certificate of appropriateness, the project shall be deemed
in violation of this Chapter.
[R.O. 2011 §405.135; Ord. No. 10-6 §1, 3-8-2010]
A denial of a certificate of appropriateness shall be accompanied
by a statement of the reasons for the denial. The HPC shall make recommendations
to the applicant concerning changes, if any, in the proposed action
that would cause the HPC to reconsider its denial and shall confer
with the applicant and attempt to resolve as quickly as possible the
differences between the owner and the HPC. The applicant may resubmit
an amended application or reapply for a building or demolition permit
that takes into consideration the recommendation of the HPC.
