<br /> 777 (Pleasanton Supp. No. 29, 1-23)
<br />Building and Safety Official may extend the time for
<br />action by the permittee for a period not exceeding 180
<br />days on written request by the permittee showing that
<br />circumstances beyond the control of the permittee have
<br />prevented action from being taken. (Ord. 2241 § 2,
<br />2022; Ord. 2197 § 2, 2019; Ord. 2153 § 2, 2016)
<br />
<br />20.04.290 Suspension or revocation.
<br /> The Building and Safety Official is authorized to
<br />suspend or revoke a permit issued under the provisions
<br />of this code wherever the permit is issued in error or on
<br />the basis of incorrect, inaccurate or incomplete informa-
<br />tion, or in violation of any ordinance or regulation or
<br />any of the provisions of this code. (Ord. 2153 § 2, 2016)
<br />
<br />20.04.300 Annual permits.
<br /> In lieu of an individual permit for each installation
<br />or alteration, an annual permit shall, upon application,
<br />be issued to any person, firm, or corporation for the in-
<br />stallation, alteration, and maintenance of equipment in
<br />or on buildings or premises owned or occupied by the
<br />applicant for the permit. Upon application and approval
<br />by the Building and Safety Official, a licensed contrac-
<br />tor as agent for the owner or tenant shall be issued an
<br />annual permit. The applicant shall keep records of all
<br />work done, and the records shall be transmitted periodi-
<br />cally to the Building and Safety Official. (Ord. 2153 § 2,
<br />2016)
<br />
<br />20.04.310 Fees.
<br /> A permit shall not be valid until the fees pre-
<br />scribed by law have been paid. Nor shall an amendment
<br />to a permit be released until the additional fee, if any,
<br />has been paid.
<br /> A. Permit Fees. The fee for each permit shall
<br />be established by resolution. Where a technical code has
<br />been adopted by the City of Pleasanton for which no fee
<br />has been established by resolution, the fee required shall
<br />be established by the Building and Safety Official based
<br />on time and material.
<br /> The applicant for a permit shall provide an esti-
<br />mated permit value at time of application. Permit valua-
<br />tions shall include total value of work, including materi-
<br />als and labor, for which the permit is being issued, such
<br />as finish work, painting, roofing, electrical, gas, me-
<br />chanical, plumbing equipment, elevators, fire-
<br />extinguishing systems and permanent systems. If, in the
<br />opinion of the Building and Safety Official, the valua-
<br />tion is underestimated on the application, the permit
<br />shall be denied, unless the applicant can show detailed
<br />estimates to meet the approval of the Building and
<br />Safety Official. Final building permit valuation shall be
<br />set by the Building and Safety Official.
<br /> Any person who commences any work on a build-
<br />ing, structure, electrical, gas, mechanical or plumbing
<br />system before obtaining the necessary permits shall be
<br />subject to an investigation fee established by the Build-
<br />ing and Safety Official that shall be in addition to the
<br />required permit fees.
<br /> The payment of the fee for the construction, al-
<br />teration, removal or demolition for work done in con-
<br />nection to or concurrently with the work authorized by a
<br />building permit shall not relieve the applicant or holder
<br />of the permit from the payment of other fees that are
<br />prescribed by law.
<br /> B. Plan Review Fees. When submittal docu-
<br />ments are required by Section 20.04.180, a plan review
<br />fee shall be paid at the time of submitting the submittal
<br />documents for plan review.
<br /> 1. The building, energy, access, fire sprinkler,
<br />fire alarm, grading, on-site, electrical, mechanical and/or
<br />plumbing plan review fee shall be established by resolu-
<br />tion.
<br /> 2. The plan review fees specified in this sec-
<br />tion are separate fees from the permit fees specified in
<br />Section 20.04.180 and are in addition to the permit fees.
<br /> 3. When submittal documents are incomplete
<br />or changed so as to require additional plan review or
<br />when the project involves deferred submittal items as
<br />defined in Section 20.04.190, one or more additional
<br />plan review fees shall be charged at the rate established
<br />by resolution.
<br /> C. Investigation Fees. Any person who com-
<br />mences any work on a building, structure, electrical, gas,
<br />mechanical or plumbing system before obtaining the
<br />necessary permits shall be subject to a special investiga-
<br />tion fee established by resolution. An investigation fee,
<br />in addition to the permit fee, shall be collected whether
<br />or not a permit is then or subsequently issued.
<br /> The investigation fee shall be equal to the amount
<br />of the permit fee established by resolution. The payment
<br />of such investigation fee shall not exempt an applicant
<br />from compliance with all other provisions of either this
<br />code or the technical codes nor from the penalty pre-
<br />scribed by law. (Ord. 2153 § 2, 2016)
<br />
<br />20.04.320 Fee refunds.
<br /> The Building and Safety Official may authorize
<br />refunding of a fee paid hereunder which was errone-
<br />ously paid or collected. The Building and Safety Official
<br />may authorize refunding of not more than 80 percent of
<br />the permit fee paid when no work has been done under a
<br />permit issued in accordance with this code.
