No building permit shall be issued upon any
real property for the renovation, construction or any improvement
of whatever nature thereon when there exist delinquent real property
taxes which have been assessed and levied upon the real property for
which a building permit is sought until such time as said delinquent
real property taxes, together with all accumulated interest and lien
fees, are paid in full.
This article shall not apply to any renovation,
construction or improvements upon real property when the same is required
so as to render said real property into compliance with any and all
applicable federal, state or local building, fire, health or safety
laws, or when such renovation or construction is the result of any
act of God, fire, natural disaster or other loss not caused by or
from any negligence or intentional act by the owner of said real property.
