A permit constitutes permission to maintain, store, use or handle materials, or to conduct processes which produce conditions hazardous to life or property, or to install equipment used in connection with such activities.  Such permission shall not be construed as authority to violate, cancel, or set aside any of the provisions of this code.  Such permit shall not take the place of any license required by law.
