The Building Official shall administer this Zoning Code.

Each application for a building permit shall be accompanied by a plat, in duplicate, drawn to scale, showing the actual dimensions of the lot to be built upon, the size, shape, and location of the building to be erected and such other information as may be necessary to provide for the enforcement of this Ordinance. A record of such application and plat shall be kept in the office of the Building Official.

It shall be unlawful to use or permit the use of any building or premises thereon hereafter created or erected, changed or converted wholly or partly in its use or structure until a certificate of occupancy to the effect that the building or premises or part thereof and the proposed use thereof conform to the provisions of the Zoning Code and has been issued by the Town Building Official with approval of the Planning and Zoning Board. A temporary certificate of occupancy for a part of a building may be issued by the Town Building Official; provided, that upon written request from the owner, the Building Official shall issue a certificate of occupancy for any building or premises existing at the time of the passage of this Ordinance certifying, after inspecting the use of the building or premises, whether such use conforms to the provisions of this Zoning Code.
