§ 802. Zoning clearance permit required.

802.1.

Purpose.

The zoning clearance permit is a permit issued by the Zoning Administrator which states that a particular development meets all of the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. It is not a building permit and does not authorize construction; it certifies that the land and/or structure is in conformance with the terms of this Zoning Ordinance.

802.2.

New construction.

No building or other structure shall be erected, constructed, enlarged, altered or repaired in such a manner as to prolong the life of the building, nor shall the use of any land/or building or other structure be changed without a zoning clearance permit being issued authorizing such construction, alteration, repair, or use changes as being in compliance with the provisions of this Ordinance. No building permit shall be issued for any construction not conforming to a valid zoning clearance permit.

802.3.

Change in use of land/or building.

No change shall be made in the use of any land/or building or structure after the passage of this Ordinance until a zoning clearance permit has been obtained, certifying that all the provisions of this Ordinance have been complied with.

802.4.

Application.

An application for a zoning clearance permit shall be made to the Zoning Administrator by the owner or proposed occupant of the building or land to be occupied or used, and said application shall state the location and legal description of said property and set out in detail the character and nature of the use to be conducted thereon. Within three days, the Zoning Administrator shall grant or deny said zoning clearance permit in accordance with the terms of this Ordinance.

802.5.

Accompanying material.

All applications for zoning clearance permits shall be accompanied by a plat plan, drawn to scale on suitable paper, showing the actual dimensions of the lot to be built upon, the size and location of the building to be erected, and such other information as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of these regulations.

802.6.

Repealed.
