  1. Sec 3.03.054 Building Contractor's License
    1. Required. No person shall engage in the business of contracting to furnish labor and materials for the erection, construction or repair of buildings, structures or signs for which a building permit is required without first obtaining an annual license. (1999 Code, sec. 150.03)
    2. Fee; renewal. Each contractor or builder who shall apply for such license shall pay an initial fee in the amount established by city council from time to time. Renewal may be effected at any time prior to the date of expiration by payment of a fee in the amount established by city council from time to time. (1999 Code, sec. 150.03; Ordinance adopting Code)
    3. Bond. No person shall be issued a license as a contractor or builder until he has made, executed, and delivered a good and sufficient corporate surety bond in the amount of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00).
    4. Expiration. All licenses issued under this code shall expire at midnight on December 31 of the year of issuance. Any licensee failing to renew his surety bond and who makes application for renewal of license before his current license expires shall be considered an applicant for an original license. The fees required in subsection (b) of this section shall not be prorated regardless of the date of issuance of an original license.
    5. Individuals doing own work. Any person desiring to erect, construct, or repair a structure owned by that person and who personally performs such work shall not be required to obtain the required license or post the required bond, but shall be required to obtain the customary permit for the particular job under this chapter.
