Legal Documents of Dandridge

The requirements of this chapter shall be enforced by the building inspector or their designee who shall inspect all the work, grading or construction involved. If the designee finds any person, firm, or equity engaged in land disturbing activities without having obtained a required grading permit, he shall issue a stop order. In addition, if anyone is found conducting or to have conducted land disturbing activities in violation of this chapter or any approved plan the designee may require compliance or refuse to approve further work and/or issue a stop order pending a hearing before the development standards board of appeals.

If the building inspector or their designee determines that significant erosion or related problems are occurring on a graded site despite approved protective practices, he shall require the permit holder to take additional corrective actions to protect the adversely affected area. The specifications or the additional measures shall be part of the amended erosion and sediment control plan.

If it is determined that the permit holder has failed to comply with the approved plan, the building inspector or their designee shall immediately serve upon the owner, developer, or contractor, a correction notice setting forth the measures needed to come into compliance and specifying a time for such compliance. Failure to comply within the time specified shall subject permittee to revocation of the permit, and he shall be deemed in violation of the chapter requirements and subject to the penalties provided therein, upon being issued an ordinance violation citation and a hearing before the Dandridge Town Judge. (1995 Code, § 14-508)
