Article II Uniform Fire Safety Code
[Adopted 6-7-1982 by Ord. No. 11-1982 as Art. II of Ch. 110 of the 1982 Code]
Application for a permit required by this article shall be made to the Fire Subcode Official in such form and detail as the Fire Subcode Official shall prescribe. Applications for permits shall be accompanied by plans or drawings as required by the Fire Subcode Official for evaluation of the application.
Before a permit is issued, the Fire Subcode Official or the Fire Subcode Official's designated representative shall make or cause to be made such inspections or tests as are necessary to assure that the use and activities for which application is made comply with the provisions of this article.
A permit shall constitute permission to maintain, store or handle materials or to conduct processes which produce conditions hazardous to life or property or to install equipment used in connection with such activities in accordance with the provisions of this article. Such permission shall not be construed as authority to violate, cancel or set aside any of the provisions of this article. Said permit shall remain in effect until revoked or for such period of time specified on the permit. Permits are not transferable, and any change in use, operation or tenancy shall require a new permit.
Plans approved by the Fire Subcode Official are approved with the intent that they comply in all respects to this article. Any omissions or errors on the plans do not relieve the applicant of complying with all applicable requirements of this article.
The Fire Subcode Official may revoke a permit or approval issued under the provisions of this article if, upon inspection, any violation of the code exists or if conditions of a permit have been violated or if there has been any false statement or misrepresentation as to material fact in the application, data or plans on which the permit or approval was based.
A permit shall not be issued until the designated fee has been paid. The designated fee for the aforementioned permit is $10, and the fee must be paid to the City of Pleasantville.
