§ 158.208. Moving of Buildings or Structures.

(A)

No building or structure shall be moved from one (1) location to another nor shall be raised, jacked up, or prepared to be moved until a special permit for the same shall have been issued by the Building Official, and all approvals and releases from all required agencies concerned have been executed and approved.

(B)

Any special moving permit shall be conditioned upon the posting of a bond in an amount to be determined by the Building Official.

(C)

Once a special moving permit has been issued the building or structure shall be moved within fourteen (14) days of issuance of the special permit and all necessary improvements required in order for said building or structure to comply with the requirements of the building code shall be completed within ninety (90) days from the date of issuance of the moving permit unless said timeframes are extended by the Building Official upon the showing of delay caused by matters beyond the control of the owner or the house mover.

(D)

A special moving permit is separate from the building permit required to construct the foundation where the building or structure is to be placed.

(E)

No special moving permit shall be issued that would result in a non-conforming use under the City's zoning code, including, but not limited to, compliance with minimum house sizes.

(F)

Moved buildings or structures shall comply with all applicable landscape codes.

(G)

Should the move or completion of necessary improvements not occur in the timeframe allotted, the bond posted as a condition of the special moving permit shall be forfeited to the City.
