(b)

No permit shall be issued to move any building until the service sewer line from the building, house or structure to be moved shall have been plugged by a licensed plumber at the riser at a point not less than four feet deep from the surface of the ground. It shall be the duty of the person obtaining the permit to immediately clean up the lot from which the building was moved by filling in all holes and removing any debris and trash from the premises. The person shall deposit with the city clerk before removing the building the sum set forth in section 42-18 as a guarantee that the lot will be cleaned up as stated. If the person does not clean up the lot within ten days after the removal of the building, the city manager is authorized to clean up the lot and expend all or a portion of the deposit to clean up the lot. If the lot is cleaned up by the person, the city clerk will refund the deposit.

(Code 1977, § 15.36.040)

(a)

Before any permit is issued under this division by the city clerk, an application therefor shall be submitted to the city planning commission to determine whether any zoning or plat restrictions or land use or other requirements will be violated by the removal of the house, building or structure.

(b)

The city planning commission shall also determine whether the house, building or structure, when moved to its new location, will conform to the general nature, quality and character of the other houses, buildings and structures in the neighborhood, and whether the placing of the house, building or structure would tend to devalue the surrounding property or would result in the creation of a blighted condition in the area or neighborhood.

(c)

The city planning commission shall, within 30 days from the date of the application, conduct a public hearing on the application and prepare its recommendations to the city council as to whether the permit should be approved, approved with modifications, or denied. No permit shall be issued without the prior approval of the city council.

(1)

An application recommended by the planning commission for approval, or approval subject to modifications, shall be transmitted to the city council with the report and recommendations of the planning commission within 30 days of the planning commission action for hearing before and city council action thereon.

(2)

An application recommended for denial by the planning commission shall not be considered further unless the applicant, within 15 days of the action by the planning commission, shall file with the city clerk and the recording secretary of the planning commission a written request for a public hearing before the city council. If no such request is filed, then $50.00 of the original permit fee shall be refunded to the applicant. Upon notice of a request for a public hearing before the city council, the planning commission shall transmit to the city council the application, its report and recommendations, and a copy of its minutes of the hearing. The recording secretary of the planning commission shall notify all interested parties of the time and place of the city council meeting pursuant to subsection (d) herein.

(d)

When an application is presented to the city clerk, he shall cause notice of the application to be given to all property owners or residents within a 300-foot radius of the site on which the house, building or structure is to be moved, and the notice shall state the time and place when the application shall be heard by the city planning commission; however, failure to give the notice shall in no manner deprive the city council of the right to grant or refuse the issuance of the permit.

(e)

The application shall describe the present location and the type and size of the house, building or structure to be moved, and be accompanied by a plot plan showing the proposed location of the house, building or structure with relation to setback and side lot lines, and the route over the streets of the city on which it is intended that the house, building or structure shall be moved. The applicant shall furnish recent photographs showing front and rear views of the house, building or structure to be moved. If the house, building or structure is to be moved to a location within the city, the applicant shall describe all improvements and repairs intended to be made on the house, building or structure. The city planning commission shall determine whether such improvements and repairs are adequate to comply with the plumbing, electrical and building codes of the city; and the city planning commission, if it determines other improvements or repairs are necessary to so conform, may require other improvements or repairs to be made as a condition to the issuance of the moving permit. The application shall show the date and proposed time of moving.

(Code 1977, § 15.36.050; Ord. No. 1174, § 2, 9-4-2018)

It is the duty of the building inspector, upon the filing of an application for a permit to move a building, to cause an inspection of such building to be made and to cause such further investigation to be made as may be necessary for the purpose of determining whether or not the provisions of this article have been or can be complied with. For such inspection, a fee shall be paid by the applicant to the city clerk as set forth in section 42-18.

Required. Prior to the issuance of a building moving permit, the applicant must post with the city a bond or undertaking to be approved by the city clerk in the penal sum of $2,500.00, payable to the city, conditioned that the applicant will cause all improvements and repairs required by the city council as a condition to the issuance of the permit to be completed within 90 days from the date of the moving of the house, building or structure onto its new location.

(b)

Forfeiture. If the improvements and repairs have not been completed within the time set out in subsection (a) of this section and in accordance with the requirements set forth in the permit, and the city council has adopted a resolution making a finding to that effect and declaring a forfeiture, the bond or undertaking shall be forfeited to the city; provided, however, that the city shall, prior to the passing and adoption of such resolution, give written notice to the applicant by registered mail and to the surety at the address shown on the application and to the address of the surety, at least ten days prior to the meeting when the resolution is to be considered. The notice shall state both the time and place of the hearing, and shall itemize the improvements and repairs which have been completed according to the permit, and shall set forth the sections of the plumbing, building or electrical code violated.

(Code 1977, § 15.36.070)

For the moving of houses, buildings or structures as provided in this article, the permit fee shall be as set forth in section 42-18. The fees shall be paid by the applicant for such permit to the city clerk at the time of or before the issuance of the permit.

The notice shall state the place, the construction which is necessary to be removed or temporarily changed or altered, the date on which it is desired to have such clearance made, and the time it will be necessary to keep such space clear. No building, house or structure shall be moved over the streets of the city until the city or the public utility company or the person owning or operating the public utility line shall have had a reasonable time, not exceeding seven days, to make such clearance. The city may make reasonable charges to the house mover for the cost of removing, raising or temporarily changing or altering such lines owned or operated by the city.
