§ 4107.02. Duties generally.

(a)

The duties of the building commission as indicated in this section shall only apply to buildings or structures not regulated by the Ohio Basic Building Code or the more restrictive ordinances to the Ohio Basic Building Code as provided for in the Columbus Building Code.

(b)

In any case where the provisions of this Building Code do not specifically cover a proposed erection, construction, enlargement, alteration, repair, removal, demolition, conversion, or equipment of a building or structure or where the application of a specific requirement of this Building Code to any of the enumerated proposed operations will work an unreasonable hardship or is impracticable, the building commission may after a hearing authorize the conduct of any such operation in such a manner as to relieve against such hardship or impracticability, provided, however, that any authorization so granted by the building commission will not endanger the safety of the persons or property.

(c)

Any person seeking such an authorization as herein provided shall do so by filing a written application with the building commission setting forth fully the basis upon which such authorization is sought and a copy shall be served upon the building inspector.

(d)

A majority vote of all the members of the building commission is necessary before any such authorization may be permitted.
