Understanding the Permitting Process

The permitting process typically involves the following steps:

  • Submitting an application: The project architect or engineer will prepare and submit an application to the appropriate government agency. The application must include all of the required information, such as the project plans, specifications, and calculations.

  • Review and approval: The government agency will review the application and make a decision on whether to approve it. If the application is approved, the agency will issue the necessary permits.

  • Inspection: Once the project is underway, the government agency will conduct inspections to ensure that the work is progressing in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.

  • Completion and final inspection: Once the project is complete, the government agency will conduct a final inspection to ensure that the work meets all applicable codes and regulations. If the work issatisfactory, the agency will issue a certificate of occupancy, which allows the building to be occupied.
