File Number: 16-629 <br /> <br />104.2 Applications and permits. <br /> <br />In order to verify compliance with any applicable laws the Building Official shall receive <br />applications, review construction documents and issue permits for the erection, and alteration, <br />demolition and moving of buildings and structures, inspect the premises for which such permits <br />have been issued and enforce compliance with the provisions of this Code. <br /> <br />When an application for demolition of a structure is applied for and the Building Official has cause <br />to believe that the structure may have historical significance, the application may be referred to <br />the Library-Historical Commission for a determination of eligibility. <br /> <br />For the purpose of determining historical significance, any structure built prior to 1940 is <br />presumed to be potentially significant. <br />An application for a demolition permit may be denied by the Building Official if the issuance of the <br />permit would result in the destruction in whole or part of a historical resource. <br /> <br />104.3 Notices and orders. <br /> <br />The Building Official shall issue all necessary notices or orders to ensure compliance with this <br />Code. <br /> <br />104.4 Inspections. <br /> <br />The Building Official shall make all of the required inspections, or the Building Official shall have <br />the authority to accept reports of inspection by approved agencies or individuals. Reports of such <br />inspections shall be in writing and be certified by a responsible officer of such approved agency <br />or by the responsible individual. The Building Official is authorized to engage such expert opinion <br />as deemed necessary to report upon unusual technical issues that arise. <br /> <br />104.5 Identification. <br /> <br />The Building Official shall carry proper identification when inspecting structures or premises in the <br />performance of duties under this Code. <br /> <br />104.6 Right of entry. <br /> <br />Where it is necessary to make an inspection to enforce the provisions of this Code, or where the <br />Building Official has reasonable cause to believe that there exists in a structure or upon a <br />premises a condition which is contrary to or in violation of this Code which makes the structure or <br />premises unsafe, dangerous or hazardous, the Building Official is authorized to enter the structure <br />or premises at reasonable times to inspect or to perform the duties imposed by this Code, <br />provided that if such structure or premises be occupied that credentials be presented to the <br />occupant and entry requested. If such structure or premises is unoccupied, the Building Official <br />shall first make a reasonable effort to locate the owner or other person having charge or control of <br />the structure or premises and request entry. If entry is refused, the Building Official shall have <br />recourse to the remedies provided by law to secure entry. <br />Page 6 City of San Leandro Printed on 11/15/2016
