5. General Provisions
The following charges shall apply to all fees for which a permit
is required by the Building, Electrical, Mechanical, and Plumbing

(A) Failure to Obtain Permit Before Work on Job is Commenced:
In the event that work for which a permit is required by
said Codes is commenced prior to the issuance of the
required permit, then the permit fee shall be doubled or
$200, whichever is greater. The collection made is to help
defray the additional cost of inspection work already done
and issuing a permit under such circumstances and is not a
penalty and is not preclusive of any remedy otherwise
available to the City to enforce said Codes.
Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the
effective date of the provision for the $Z00 fee shall be
ninety (90) days from the effective date of this ordinance.
(B) Investigation Fee: In the event that an inspection is made
and the resultant discovery is that work for which a permit
is required by said codes has been done but the required
permit has not be obtained or issued, then the permit fee
shall be doubled and a $200 investigation fee shall be
added. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary,
the effective date of the provision for the $200 fee shall
be ninety (90) days from the effective date of this
ordinance.
SECTION 2. That nothing contained in this ordinance repealing the
aforesaid $200 administrative fee as provided by Section 1 shall be construed as
discontinuing, abating, modifying or altering any penalty accrued, or as
affecting the liability of any person or waiving any right of the City under the
