§ 8.00.01. General sequence of steps.

All persons desiring to undertake any new construction, structural alteration or changes in use of a building or lot shall apply for proper zoning approvals and architectural approvals. If a building permit is required, application for the building permit shall be made to the building official. No building permit shall be issued by the building official until zoning and architectural standards have been approved.

All persons desiring to undertake any new construction or structural alteration, other than single- and two-family residences, shall also apply for proper architectural approvals.

Prior to the issuance of a business tax receipt, zoning approval shall be obtained for the use of any land or structure utilized for said occupation. Upon application for a business tax receipt, the city clerk shall forward the request to the building official for review and approval. No business tax receipt shall be issued until zoning and architectural standards have been approved. Once zoning and/or architectural design has been approved and any other permit or license issued, the applicant may proceed to undertake the action permitted and upon completion of such action shall apply to the building official for a certificate of occupancy allowing the premises to be occupied.
