Issuance of permits

If the building official finds the proposed sign to be in compliance with this ordinance, he shall issue such sign permit within ten (10) days after the filing of the application.

If the erection or installation of the sign authorized under any such permit has not been started within six (6) months from the date of the issuance of such permit, and diligently pursued until completed, the permit shall become null and void.

Every sign shall bear the sign permit number conveniently and permanently affixed on the face or support thereof, or in such other place as authorized in writing by the building official. Failure to so affix the sign permit number shall constitute cause for revocation of the permit by the building official in addition to any other penalties or remedies provided in this ordinance.
