Sec. 72. Certificates of occupancy.

It shall be unlawful to use or permit the use of any building
or premises, or part thereof, hereafter created, erected,
changed, converted, altered, or enlarged, wholly or partly, in
its use or structure, until a certificate of occupancy shall
have been issued therefor by the building official. Such certificate
shall show that such building or premises, or part
thereof, and the proposed use thereof are in conformity with
the provisions of this chapter[38] ; provided that where structures
are completed and ready for occupancy prior to the
completion of all improvements required by the site plan the
owner may provide bond with surety adequate to guarantee
the completion by time certain of such site plan improvements
as relate to the building for which the permit is sought,
and upon the providing of such bond with surety a permit
may be issued for the occupancy of those structures already
completed. The city attorney is authorized to accept instead
of corporate surety, letter of credit, joint savings account or
other like surety. In any case in which any other escrow
agent (such as an attorney for a mortgage lender) is holding
funds to ensure compliance with the terms of other regulations
or agreements, and such funds are in an amount sufficient
to ensure compliance both with the terms hereof and
such other regulations or agreements, the city attorney shall
become a party to such other escrow agreement as escrow
agent for the City of Charlottesville, provided that such other
escrow agreement contains provisions satisfactory to the city
attorney to ensure compliance with the requirements of such
site plan and this ordinance.[39] (2-17-58, § 33-72; 11-20-72.)
