The issuance or granting of a permit or approval of plans shall not prevent the Administrative Authority from thereafter requiring the correction of errors in said plans and specifica- tions or from preventing construction operations being carried on thereunder when in violation of this code or of any other ordinance or from revoking any certificate of approval when issued in error. Every permit issued by the Administrative Authority under the provisions of this code shall expire by limitation and be- come null and void, if the work authorized by such permit is not cor~enced within sixty (60) days from date of such permit, or if the work authorized by such permit is suspended or aban- doned at any time after the work is commenced for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days. Before such work can be recom- menced a new permit shall be first obtained so to do, and the fee therefore shall be one-half the amount required for a new permit for such work, provided no changes have been made, or will be made in the original plans and specifications for such work; and provided, further, that such suspension or abandon- ment has not exceeded one (1) year. Sec. 8-308. Permit Required. (a) It shall be unlawful for any person to install, remove, alter, repair or replace or cause to be installed, removed, altered, repaired or replaced any plumbing, gas or drainage piping work or any fixture or water heating or treating equip- ment in a building or premises without first obtaining a permit to do such work from the Administrative Authority. (b) A separate permit shall be obtained for each building or structure. (c) No person shall allow any other person to do or cause to be done any work under a permit secured by a Permittee ex- cept persons in his employ. Sec. 8-309. Work Not Requiring Permit. No permit shall be required in the case of any repair work as follows: The stopping of leaks in drains, soil, waste, or vent pipe, provided, however, that should any trap, drainpipe, soil, waste or vent pipe be or become defective and it becomes necessary to remove and replace the same with new material in any part or parts, the same shall be considered as such new work and a permit shall be procured and inspection made as here- inbefore provided. No permit shall be required for the clearing of stoppages or the repairing of leaks in pipes, valves or fix- tures, when such repairs do not involve or require the replace- ment or rearrangement of valves, pipes, or fixtures. Sec. 8-310. To Whom Permits May Be Issued. A permit may be issued to any person not acting in violation of any current contractor licensing law.
