§ 38-1412. Moving of buildings.

(a)

It shall be the purpose of this section to control the location, use and size of buildings being moved within the county. Inasmuch as the county building regulations set forth certain provisions for the moving of buildings, it is the intent that the provisions of such regulations shall control, except wherein specifically changed, altered or amended by this section.

(b)

All buildings which are moved shall comply with the zoning regulations imposed on the district of destination.

(c)

Substandard dwellings may be moved subject to the following regulations:

(1)

Prior to the moving of any dwelling which is substandard in living area for the district of its destination, the owner shall obtain a permit for the improvements necessary to meet the zoning district requirements.

(2)

In applying for such permit, the applicant must submit a plot plan and detailed construction plan of the proposed addition. Such improvements shall be completed within sixty (60) days after the issuance of such permit.

(3)

A performance bond acceptable to the board of county commissioners guaranteeing the construction of the required addition shall be provided by the owner. Such bond shall be in the amount of the estimated cost of such improvements based on six dollars ($6.00) per square foot for frame buildings, and seven dollars ($7.00) per square foot for concrete block buildings.

(d)

In cases where improvements are required to satisfy the minimum requirements of both the county building department and the planning and zoning regulations, both items may be covered by one (1) permit when a plot plan and detailed construction plan accompany the application and a performance bond acceptable to the board of county commissioners covering the combined estimated cost has been posted.
