That the owner, lessee, or any other person, firm or corporation owning controlling, constructing, supervising or directing the construction of any building or structure now in process of construction and which is incomplete at the time the land upon which it is situated is annexed to the City of Pittsburg, before proceeding any further with the construction, alteration or completion thereof shall apply to the Building Inspector of the City of Pittsburg for a permit authorizing further work on said building or structure and shall attach to said application for such permit plans and specifications relating to the construction of said building, or specifications relating to the construction of said building, or structure, which said application for building permit shall be promptly referred to the City Planning & Zoning Commission for consideration and said Commission shall promptly thereafter file with said governing body its recommendation as to granting, modifying or rejecting said permit, the said recommendation to be advisory, as stated in Section _______ hereof.
