What do you need to submit for a building permit?

The following is a building permit checklist of what you will need to provide us:

1. One (1) completely filled out and signed building permit application.
2. One (1) completely filled out and signed utility connection application.
3. Two (2) 8-1/2" by 11" / 1 inch = 20 feet, scaled plot plan drawings that meet the zoning district setback, structural dimension requirements, and city code requirements, as they apply to your development.
4
4. Two (2) 8-1/2" by 11" architectural elevation drawings, drawn to standard architectural scale, that show you are clearly meeting the code requirements.
5. Written calculations, including all elevation square footage measurements for architectural treatments that meet the percentage requirements listed in the City code.

Remember, building permit applications must be complete or they will be returned to you.

 

How can you speed up the approval process?

If you're not sure about something, please call or e-mail us. We would be happy to sit down with you and go over the code requirements and your plans, and answer any questions you might have. You may also want to consider having your architectural elevation plans pre-approved by the City before you submit for building permit(s). We want to help. Together, we can save you and your job time and money.
