§ 104. Application for building permit.

Each application to the building inspector for a building permit shall be accompanied by plot plans in duplicate showing:

104.1 The actual dimensions of the lot to be built upon.

104.2 The size of the building to be erected.

104.3 The location of the building on the lot.

104.4 The location of existing structures on the lot, if any.

104.5 The number of dwelling units the building is designed to accommodate.

104.6 The approximate setback lines of buildings on adjoining lots.

104.7 Such other information as may be essential for determining whether the provisions of this ordinance are being observed. The building inspector shall have authority to issue permits only for construction and uses which are in accordance with the ordinance. It shall be unlawful for any person to commence work for the erection or alteration of any building until a building permit has been duly issued therefor. Permits for construction and uses which are a special exception to such general requirements shall be issued by the building inspector only upon order of the board of appeals. The building inspector shall issue no permits for the construction or use of any land or buildings unless it also conforms to the requirements of all other zoning ordinances.

Any building permit issued shall become invalid unless the work authorized by it shall have been commenced within six months of its date of issue or if the work authorized by it is suspended or abandoned for a period of one year.
