Whenever the Director is satisfied that a building or structure or any work in connection therewith, the erection, construction, alteration, execution or repair of which is regulated, permitted or forbidden by the State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code or the Code of the Village of Northport, is being erected, constructed, altered or repaired in violation of the provisions or requirements of this article or in violation of a detailed statement or plan submitted and approved thereunder, he shall serve a written notice or order upon the person responsible therefor directing discontinuance of such illegal action and the remedying of the condition that is in violation of the provisions or requirements of this article.
Whenever the Director has reasonable grounds to believe that work on any building is being performed in violation of the provisions of the applicable building laws, ordinances, rules or regulations or not in conformity with the provisions of an application, plans or specifications on the basis of which a building permit was issued or in an unsafe and dangerous manner, he shall notify the owner of the property or the owner's agent to suspend all work; and any such persons shall forthwith stop such work and suspend all building activities until the stop order has been rescinded.

B. 
In the case of change of the nature of occupancy or of use in any building, existing or to be erected, the owner or lessee must notify the Director before the proposed change is made. The Director shall thereupon cause an inspection to be made of the premises, and a certificate shall be issued for such use. No new certificate shall be issued, nor shall the building be occupied or used, unless it conforms or is made to conform to all requirements for strength of floors to carry the proposed loads, for means of egress, for light and air and for all other safety requirements of this code. In an existing building, no change of occupancy shall be made that would bring it under some special provision of law, ordinance or regulation, unless the Director finds, upon inspection, that such building conforms to the provisions of law with respect to the proposed new occupancy and use, and issues a certificate of occupancy therefor.

A. 
Upon the completion, under a permit, of any structure or alteration, the Director shall issue to the permit holder a certificate, to be known as a certificate of occupancy, stating that the work has been completed substantially in accordance with the permit and the codes and laws applicable thereto.
B. 
The certificate shall state the purposes for which the structure may be used in its several parts, the maximum permissible live loads on the several floors and the number of persons that may be accommodated in the several stories in case any or all such matters are limited by law or the permit under which the construction was undertaken. No certificate of occupancy shall be issued after the expiration of one year from the date of the original building permit or renewal permit, as the case may be.
C. 
Certificates of occupancy and other certificates shall be issued in duplicate within 10 days after written application therefor, if the building at the time of such application shall be entitled thereto. One copy of each certificate shall be kept in the office of the Department, and one copy shall be furnished to the person having principal interest in the building affected. Duplicate copies shall be furnished to other interested persons on request. No certificates of occupancy shall be issued unless at the time of the application therefor a final approved survey shall be submitted showing the lot, the building and any other improvements thereon, together with lot and building dimensions and distances from exterior lot lines to said improvements.
Nothing in this code shall require the removal, alteration or abandonment of, nor prevent the continuance of the use and occupancy of, a lawfully existing building, except as may be necessary for the safety of life and property.
