(b) The Zoning Administrator shall not issue a zoning permit unless the plans, specifications, and intended use of such buildings, structure, land, or part thereof conform in all respects to the provisions of this ordinance. The application for a zoning permit shall be accompanied by such information as the Zoning Administrator may require to enable him to act upon such application. In cases where an appeal is filed by the applicant, or where he applied for a variance, the Zoning Administrator shall forthwith transmit all of the papers pertaining to the application to the Board for its action.
