A. 
Except as authorized by the regulations, no person shall occupy or use or permit to be occupied or used any building or part thereof newly erected or constructed or installed until the following have occurred:
(1) 
Notice of the date of completion of the building or part thereof is given to the Chief Official by the applicant, and an inspection, by the Chief Official or an Inspector, is made pursuant to such notice; or 10 days have elapsed after the service of or giving of the notice or after the date of completion, whichever occurs last; and
(2) 
Any order made by a Chief Official or an Inspector under this chapter is complied with.
B. 
No building erected subject to the Code and this chapter shall be used or occupied, except to the extent provided in this section, until a certificate of occupancy has been issued. No building similarly enlarged, extended or altered or upon which work has been performed which required the issuance of a building permit shall be occupied or used for more than 30 days after the completion of the alteration or work unless a certificate of occupancy has been issued. No change shall be made in the nature of the occupancy of an existing building unless a certificate of occupancy authorizing the change has been issued. The applicant, owner or his agent shall make application for a certificate of occupancy.
C. 
A temporary certificate of occupancy may be issued if the building or a designated portion of a building is sufficiently complete that it may be put to the use for which it is intended. A temporary certificate of occupancy shall expire six months from the date of issuance, but may be renewed an indefinite number of times.
D. 
No certificate of occupancy shall be issued except upon an inspection which reveals no uncorrected deficiency or material violation of the Code in the area intended for use and upon payment of the appropriate fee as required by this chapter.
