Electrical Certificate of Occupancy or Completion

No building or structure shall be used or occupied, and no change in the existing occupancy classification of a building or structure or portion thereof shall be made until the Building Official has issued a Certificate of Occupancy or Completion as provided herein.

After the electrical inspectors inspect the building or structure and find no violations of the provisions of the Building Code or other laws which are enforced by the City, the Building Official shall issue a Certificate of Occupancy or Completion which shall contain the following:

  • The building permit number.

  • The address of the building.

  • The name and address of the owner.

  • A description of the building for which the certificate is issued.

  • A statement that the described portion of the building has been inspected for compliance with the requirements of the Building Code for the group and division of occupancy and the use for which the proposed occupancy is classified.

  • Name and signature of the Building Official.

Issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy or Completion shall not be construed as an approval of a violation of the provisions of the Building Code or of other ordinances of the city. Certificates presuming to give authority to violate or cancel the provisions of the Building Code or other ordinances of the City shall not be valid.

The Building Official may, in writing, suspend or revoke a Certificate of Occupancy or Completion issued under the provisions of the Building Code when it is determined that the building or structure or portion thereof is in violation of any ordinance or regulation of the City.
