Part 28.-Frame Buildings.

§ 144. Frame Structures Within the Fire Limits.-The provisions, in this section contained, shall apply to buildings and structures, whether temporary or permanent, within the fire limits, as the said fire limits now are or may hereafter be established.

Temporary one-story frame buildings may be erected for the use of builders, within the limits of lots whereon buildings are in course of erection, or on adjoining vacant lots, upon permits issued by the Commissioner of Buildings having jurisdiction.

Temporary structures shall be taken to mean and include platforms, stands, election booths, temporary buildings and circus tents. Sheds of wood not over fifteen feet high, open on at least one side, with the sides and roof covered with fireproof material, may also be built, but a fence shall not be used as the back or side thereof. Such sheds shall not cover an area exceeding two thousand five hundred square feet, except by permission of the Board of Buildings. Fences, signs or bill-boards shall not be at any point over ten feet above the adjoining ground; except that when any fence, sign or bill-board shall be constructed entirely of metal or of wood covered on all sides with sheet metal, including the uprights, supports and

braces for same, it shall not be at any point over eighteen feet six inches above the adjoining ground.

Any letter, word, model, sign, device or representation in the nature of an advertisement, announcement or direction, supported or attached, wholly or in part, over or above any wall, building or structure, shall be deemed to be a "sky sign."

Sky signs shall be constructed entirely of metal, including the uprights, supports and braces for same, and shall not be at any point over nine feet above the front wall or cornice of the building or structure to which they are attached or by which they are supported.

All fences, signs, bill-boards and sky signs shall be erected entirely within the building line, and be properly secured, supported and braced, and shall be so constructed as not to be or become danger

ous.

Before the erection of any fence, sign, bill-board or sky sign shall have been commenced, a permit for the erection of the same shall be obtained from the Superintendent of Buildings having jurisdiction, as provided in part 2, section 4, of this Code. Each application for the erection of any fence, sign, bill-board or sky sign, shall be accompanied by a written consent of the owner or owners, or the lessee or lessees of the property upon which it is to be erected.

Piazzas or balconies of wood on buildings other than frame buildings which do not exceed eight feet in width, and which do not extend more than three feet above the second story floor beams, may be erected, provided a permit from the Commissioner of Buildings having jurisdiction, be granted therefor. In connected houses such piazzas or balconies may be built, provided the same are open on the front and have brick ends not less than eight inches thick, carried up above the roof of such piazza or balcony, and coped with stone. The roofs of all piazzas shall be covered with some fireproof materials. Frame buildings already erected may have placed on any story piazzas, balconies or bay windows of wood, the roofs of which may be covered with the same material as the roof of the main building.

Exterior privies, and wood or coal houses, not exceeding 150 square feet in superficial area and eight feet high, may be built of wood, but the roofs thereof must be covered with metal, gravel or slate. (Id., sec. 144, as amend. by ord. app. July 14, 1902.)
