Repairs and additions requiring permit. No addition, alteration or repair to an existing one-family or two-family dwelling not deemed minor repair by the building inspector shall be undertaken unless a building permit for this work shall first be obtained by the owner or his agent, from the inspector.

Submission of plans. The applicant shall submit three sets of plans for all new repairs or additions to existing one-family and two-family dwellings at the time that the building permit application is filed.

(d)

Issuance of permit. All applicable fees shall be paid at the time of application for a building permit. If the plans are approved by the architectural board, as such approval may be necessary in accordance with section 46-99, and the building inspector finds that the proposed building or repair or addition complies with all village ordinances and the uniform dwelling code, the inspector shall officially approve the application and a building permit shall be subsequently issued to the applicant. The issued building permit shall be posted in a conspicuous place at the building site. A copy of any issued building permit shall be kept on file with the building inspector.
