Records of Improvement Location Permits Every Improvement Location Permit issued pursuant to this Section shall be kept on file in the Office of the Zoning Administrator and shall be available as a public record. Section 4-2. Certificate of Occupancy 1. Scope It shall be unlawful to use, occupy, or permit the use or occupancy of any building or premises, or both, or part thereof hereafter created, erected, changed, converted, or wholly or partly altered or enlarged in its use or structure until a certificate of occupancy shall have been issued by the Zoning Administrator. The certificate of occupancy shall state that the proposed use of the building and/or land conforms to the requirements of this ordinance and that the Zoning Administrator has inspected the property and attested to that fact. A. This Section is not intended to prevent a single family homeowner undergoing a single room addition to move or store personal property items in the addition prior to the issuance of the permit, provided however, the addition is not used or occupied as a livable space. 2. Application for Certificate of Occupancy Applications for a Certificate of Occupancy shall be filed with the Zoning Administrator thirty (30) calendar days prior to completion of the improvements to any building or premises. The application shall be in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 3 (Applications & Hearings) of this Ordinance. Town of Avon, Indiana 22. Town Ordinance

24 3. Change in Use No change shall be made in the use of land or the use of any building or part thereof, now or hereafter erected, reconstructed, or structurally altered, without a Certificate of Occupancy having been issued by the Zoning Administrator; and no such Certificate shall be issued to make such change unless it is in conformity with the provisions of this ordinance. 4. Change of Occupancy No persons, firms, or corporations shall move into or occupy any nonresidential structure, new or existing, or the land upon which it is located, without first obtaining a Certificate of Occupancy from the Zoning Administrator. 5. Issuance of Certificate of Occupancy Certificates of Occupancy may be issued by the Zoning Administrator within ten (10) business days after notification by the applicant that the lawful erection, reconstruction, or structural alteration of such building or other improvement of the land shall have been completed and the finding of the Zoning Administrator that such erection, reconstruction, or structural alteration is complete. 6. Temporary Certificate of Occupancy A Temporary Certificate of Occupancy may be issued by the Zoning Administrator for a period of six (6) months during alterations or partial occupancy of a building or structure pending its completion. A Temporary Certificate of Occupancy may be administratively renewed by the Zoning Administrator for a period not to exceed six (6) additional months. Prior to the expiration of an administratively renewed Temporary Certificate of Occupancy, an appeal to the Board of Zoning Appeals requesting an additional renewal of the Temporary Certificate of Occupancy for a period not to exceed twelve (12) additional months may be filed. The Board of Zoning Appeals may approve or approve with conditions the renewal appeal only upon the determination and written findings that: A. The renewal request arises from some condition peculiar to the property involved; and B. A strict application of the twelve month limit would constitute an unnecessary hardship if applied to the property for which the appeal is sought. In no case shall a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy be valid for a period longer than twenty-four (24) months. 7. Failure to Obtain a Certificate of Occupancy Failure to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy shall be a violation of this ordinance and subject to the provisions of Chapter 19 (Enforcement). 8. Limitation on Certificates of Occupancy Certificate of Occupancy permits issued on the basis of plans and applications approved by the Zoning Administrator authorize only the use or arrangement set forth in such approved application or amendments thereto, and no other use, arrangements, or construction. Any use, arrangement, or construction contrary to that authorized shall be deemed a violation of this ordinance and subject to the provisions of Chapter 19 (Enforcement). Town of Avon, Indiana 23. Town Ordinance

25 9. Records of Certificate of Occupancy Every Certificate of Occupancy issued pursuant to this Section shall be kept on file in the Office of the Zoning Administrator and shall be available as a public record. Section 4-3. Variances The variance procedures are intended to provide a narrowly circumscribed means by which relief may be granted from the strict applications of this Ordinance that may result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships. Where relief may be more appropriately remedied, if at all, pursuant to other provisions of this Ordinance, the variance procedure is inappropriate. 1. Authority The Board of Zoning Appeals may authorize, in specific cases, such variances from the terms of this Ordinance as will not be contrary to the public interest and where, owing to special conditions, a strict application of the provisions of this Ordinance would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary hardships. 2. Parties Entitled to Seek Variance The owner or lessee of a property or other person having a legal or equitable interest in the subject property may file with the Zoning Administrator an application for variance. 3. Procedure for Review and Decision A. Application Applications for a variance shall be filed in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 3 (Applications & Hearings). B. Action by Zoning Administrator Upon receipt of a properly completed application for variance, the Zoning Administrator shall transmit the application to the Board of Zoning Appeals together with all other administrative reports and recommendations regarding the proposed application. The application shall be scheduled for a public hearing in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 3 (Applications & Hearings). C. Notice Notice of the public hearing shall be provided in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 3 (Applications & Hearings). (a) In addition, the Board of Zoning Appeals has determined for purposes of IC that interested parties are all persons with a legal interest in the property and all owners of real property within a distance of six hundred sixty (660) feet or a depth of two (2) ownerships, whichever is less. Such interested parties shall be sent written notice by first class mail, at the applicant s expense, at least ten (10) calendar days before the date of the hearing. Proof of such notice by Affidavit shall be required. If however, the subject matter of the proposal abuts or includes a county line or a county line street, road, or body of water, then all owners of real property to a depth of two (2) ownerships or one-eighth (1/8) of a mile into the adjacent county, whichever is less, are interested parties who must be sent notice.
