[Amended 8-22-1994 by L.L. No. 3-1994]
The plumbing standards of the Uniform Code shall
be the minimum standards for all buildings hereafter constructed in
the Village of Sea Cliff and for all existing buildings wherein any
installation, alteration, repair or replacement of or addition to
any plumbing system is proposed to be done.
A.
No installation, alteration or replacement of, nor any addition to, any plumbing system, including any fire sprinkler system, in any building or structure shall be made without first applying for and obtaining a plumbing permit from the Building Department. The fee for and duration of such permit shall be as set forth in Chapter A142, Schedule of Fees. Such fee shall accompany each application, which shall be in writing, and shall be filed with the Building Inspector. The form for such application shall be as prescribed by the Building Inspector.
[Amended 3-10-2008 by L.L. No. 3-2008]
B.
The foregoing provisions of this section notwithstanding,
minor repairs may be made to plumbing systems without the necessity
of first obtaining a permit. Minor repairs shall not include the installation
of new gas, soil, waste, drainage or vent pipes or the connection
of additional fixtures to existing gas, soil, waste, drainage or vent
pipes.
A.
Applications for plumbing permits shall be to the
Building Inspector, on forms provided by the Building Department,
and shall include such information and description of work and diagrams
as the Building Inspector deems necessary.
B.
Where plans and specifications filed in connection
with an application for a building permit do not contain sufficient
details or where no building permit has been applied for, the Building
Inspector may require the plumber to file, as part of his application,
a drawing on tracing cloth or a print of the system of plumbing showing
the location of the various fixtures, lines, valves and other items
required by the Uniform Code. Such plans, drawings or prints shall
be drawn to scale and shall contain such floor plans and sections
as may be necessary to show clearly any plumbing work to be done.
They shall also show partitions and the method of ventilating bathrooms
and toilet rooms. Such plans, drawings or prints must be signed by
an architect, professional engineer or licensed plumber.
[Amended 8-22-1994 by L.L. No. 3-1994]
C.
No modification of the approved plans, drawings or
prints will be permitted unless amended plans, drawings or prints
covering the proposed change or changes are filed with and approved
by the Building Inspector.
A plumbing permit shall be prominently displayed
on the premises while the work is being performed.
All plumbing work shall be performed by or under
the direct supervision of a plumber duly licensed by the Village,
except as otherwise provided in this chapter.[1]
A.
In cases where no building permit has been issued,
notice shall be given to the Building Inspector by the plumber when
any work is begun. Upon the completion of such work, it shall be inspected
by the Building Inspector. If found to have been done satisfactorily
in accordance with the permit issued therefor, the Building Inspector
shall issue a certificate of approval.
B.
It shall be unlawful to use any plumbing system until
a certificate of occupancy (in the case of work covered by a building
permit) or a certificate of approval has been issued therefor.
Such other provisions of this chapter as relate
to building permits, including but not limited to provisions for revocation,
notice and stop-work orders, which are not inconsistent herewith shall
be applicable to plumbing permits.
