READY TO APPLY FOR A PERMIT? WE CAN HELP SPEED UP THE PROCESS.

Starting With the Basics: Types of Review

STEP ONE: ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW

This review, conducted by Customer Service, is the first step once an application is received. In this stage, an application is reviewed to determine if all required materials are present for processing.

MAJOR ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW SET BACKS
As the first stage in your plan's way to an approved permit, an efficient Administrative Review is essential in making a faster timeline possible. Our Customer Service department encounters frequent mistakes that could be easily corrected.

UNCOLLATED NARRATIVE

One of the most common errors we see are narratives that come either loose leaf or in 3 ring binders. Binder clips are also not correct.

The correctly bound narrative should be comb bound and collated to ensure no pages go missing.

Additionally, E&S narratives and PCSM narratives should be bound separately.

TOO MANY COPIES

We only require one copy of your plan drawings in order to process an application request.

By submitting multiple copies, it causes a slow down as we must determine which drawings are duplicates and which are part of the application materials.

PLANS NOT STAPLED

If plans are rolled, we are unable to accept the request for a permit application. It becomes difficult to keep all plan drawings in proper order and leads to delays.

We only can accept plan drawings that are folded accordian style and are staples along the left edge.
