Due to the COVID-19 virus, The Building Department has suspended the pre-submittal meeting requirements. 

Please see each menu bar on the left for submittal procedures and requirements. 

Please understand that we are currently following the CDC guidelines for social distancing and request that you do the same. 

In addition, please be advised that due to COVID-19 our current plan review timelines have been suspended. We will review your project as efficiently as possible. We appreciate your understanding.

The time to schedule a Pre-Submittal meeting is when you are ready to submit for a permit. The Permit Control Coordinator will review the required drawings/specifications and permit application to determine if they meet the requirements needed for permit submittal. If the drawings/specifications and application meet the requirements, the application will be accepted for review. If the drawings/specifications and application are not complete, a list of required items for the permit submittal will be provided to you. A new appointment may be required based on the missing items.

Please refer to the Residential Submittal Requirements (PDF) or the Commercial/Multi-Family Submittal Requirements (PDF) for detailed information about what is required to submit for a building permit.
