155.02 APPLICATION. Application shall be made in writing, filed with the Public Works Director and contain the following information:

  1. Name. The name and address of the applicant.

  2. Location. The street address and full legal description of the property.

  3. Proposed Work. The nature of work proposed to be done.

  4. Use. The use for which the structure is or will be used.

  5. Plans. Application for permits shall be accompanied by such drawings of the proposed work, drawn to scale, including such floor plans, sections, elevations, and structural details, as the Public Works Director may require.

  6. Plot Diagram. There shall also be filed a plot diagram in a form and size suitable for filing permanently with the permit record, drawn to scale, with all dimensions figured, showing accurately the size and exact location of all proposed new construction. The diagram shall show lot lines, streets, and alleys, distances on all exposed sides from the lot line to the foundation plus the size of the building overhang, including raid gutter, and shall show the buildings on adjoining lots and the approximate distances from applicant’s lot.

155.03 FEES. A fee for each building permit shall be paid to the Director of Public Works as set forth herein. The determination of value or valuation under any of the provisions of this chapter shall be made by the Director of Public Works. The valuation to be used in computing the permit fees shall be the total value of all construction work for which the permit is issued, as well as all finish work, painting, roofing, electrical, plumbing, heating, air conditioning, elevators, fire extinguishing systems, and any other permanent work or permanent equipment. The Director of Public Works will use as a guide to determine the valuation the latest “Building Valuation Data,” and the “Regional Modifiers,” as published by the International Conference of Building Officials, unless the applicant can show that the actual cost will be less.

155.04 AMENDMENTS. Nothing shall prohibit the filing of amendments to an application or to a plan or other record accompanying same, at any time before the completion of the work for which the permit was sought. Such amendments, after approval, shall be filed with and be deemed a part of the original application.

155.05 APPLICATION APPROVED. The Director of Public Works shall examine applications for permits and shall, within a reasonable time, either approve or disapprove the application. If, after examination, the Director of Public Works finds no objection to the same and it appears that the proposed work will be in compliance with the laws and ordinances applicable thereto, the Director of Public Works shall instruct the Clerk to issue the building permit to the applicant.

155.06 APPEAL. If the Director of Public Works denies an application for permit, the reasons for such denial shall be stated and the applicant notified of such denial and of the right to appeal to the Board of Adjustment. The Board of Adjustment upon appeal may affirm, modify, or reverse the determination of the Director of Public Works; provided however, no application shall be approved and permit issued which would result in an abrogation of the intent and purpose of this chapter. The Board of Adjustment’s decision may be appealed to the City Council.

155.07 CONDITION OF THE PERMIT. All work performed under any permit shall conform to the approved application and plans, and approved amendments thereof. The location of all new construction as shown on the approved plot diagram, or an approved amendment thereof, shall be strictly adhered to. It is unlawful to reduce or diminish the area of a lot or plot of which a plot diagram has been filed and has been used as the basis for a permit, unless a revised plot diagram showing the proposed change in conditions has been filed and approved; provided, this does not apply when the lot is reduced by reason of a street opening or widening or other public improvement.

155.08 REVOCATION. The Director of Public Works may revoke a permit or approval issued under the provisions of this chapter in case there has been any false statement or misrepresentation as to a material fact in the application or plans on which the permit or approval was based.

155.09 PERMIT VOID. In the event that construction covered by a permit is not initiated and under way within one year from the date of issuance of a permit, such permit shall be deemed void and of no effect. Work shall be done by the date stated in the permit or the permit is void and a new permit must be applied for and secured including the payment of permit fees.

155.10 PENALTY FEE. Where work for which a permit is required by this chapter is started without obtaining a permit, the fees specified for such permit shall be doubled, but the payment of such double fee shall not relieve any persons from fully complying with the requirements of this chapter in the execution of the work, nor from any other penalties prescribed herein.

(Code of Iowa, Sec. 103A.19[5])
