§ 122-219. Conformance with approved plan; changes to approved plan; certification of compliance; maintenance of improvements.

(a)

Conformance with approved plan. Upon the site plan being approved and a building permit being issued, the development shall be built substantially in accordance with the site plan and the plans and specifications.

(b)

Changes to approved plan. If the owner or his agent, or successors, desire to make any changes to an approved site plan, such proposed changes shall first be submitted to the building official.

(1)

If the building official deems that there is substantial change or deviation from that which is shown on the approved site plan that will affect concurrency, the owner or his agent must submit a new site plan for review by the site plan review committee.

(2)

If, after consultation with affected departments, the building official deems the changes to not be substantial, the changes will be allowed to be made without additional review. A record of the changes must be made part of the permanent record of the site. At the discretion of the building official, this can be accomplished by either submitting a revised site plan or making handwritten corrections to the original plan. Handwritten corrections must be signed and dated by the owner or his agent and a representative of the city.

(c)

Certification of compliance. After completion of the improvements in accordance with the approved site plan and specifications, but prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy or final approval relating to the site, a registered engineer or other professional authorized by Florida Statutes to make such certification shall verify that the actual construction is in compliance with and functions in the manner of the approved site plan.

(1)

If the construction is in substantial compliance with the approved site plan, a registered engineer or other professional authorized by Florida Statutes to make such certification shall submit a signed and sealed certification, as follows, to the building official:

(3)

All as-builts submitted to the city subsequent to the date of aerial photography of that local area in which the project is located must be drawn to a scale of one inch equals 100 feet, with two-foot contours, and verified with spot elevations.
