SECTION 9. PROCEDURE FOR THE ISSUANCE OF BUILDING PERMITS.

Any applicant for a building permit shall, at the time of such application, simultaneously furnish the Fire Inspector of the Fire District or his representative with a copy of the plans for the building or structure to be constructed, reconstructed, moved, demolished, structurally altered, or changed. Such plans shall include applicable site plans, subdivision plats, drainage plans, grading plans, elevation plans, and any and all other documents required for the development of the plot, building or structure. The Fire Inspector or his authorized representative shall have five (5) days to review the building plans and drawings on a single family house and twenty-one (21) days to review the building plans and drawings on any multifamily or commercial use structure.

The County, City, or Village for good cause shown may extend such period of time upon written application of the Fire District for two (2) additional days. Such review shall be conducted and guided by the Codes and Standards adopted by the Fire District. Failure to notify the County, City, or Village within said period of time shall constitute approval. In the event of disapproval, the Fire District shall within such period of time, deliver a written statement of such disapproval together with the reasons thereof to the County, City, or Village will not issue such building permit so long as such disapproval continues. Any person aggrieved by such denial of approval may appeal as set forth in Section 7 of this Ordinance.

No new building or structure shall be constructed, reconstructed, moved, demolished, structurally altered or changed in use, or in bulk unless the proposed work or use is in conformance with all the provisions of this Ordinance and the Codes and Standards provided for herein.

This section shall become effective and shall be required for all new buildings and structures located within the Southern Platte Fire Protection District for which an application is made for a building permit on or after April 14, 1997.
