permitting

Obtaining a building permit can be a complex and time consuming process.  As regulations become more complex the specific requirements for application become more complex and vary from municipality to municipality.  Because of this we generally take the responsibility of applying for and processing the building permit.

Our services include completing application forms, assembling the necessary documentation, And scheduling an appointment with building officials. We also periodically check on the progress of the application in order to appropriately plan for the commencement of construction.

Your application for a building permit requires the approval of a number of city divisions that work together in close cooperation. The building division typically approves and inspects buildings for structural safety and conformance to the building codes. The planning division looks at the placement of new structures within property boundaries for such ZONING requirements as building setbacks, density, building height, and floor area ratios. The public works division deals with issues involving public property - curbs, gutters, driveway approaches, permanent encroachments, and contractor’s parking permits..
