Building Plan Review is responsible for reviewing and approving Residential and Commercial building plans for compliance with the Land Development Code and Technical Codes (Building, Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire, Energy).
Once a building plan is approved, a building permit is issued by the Service Center, along with applicable trade permits (electrical, mechanical, plumbing & irrigation). Depending on the type of work that is permitted, building inspections may be required during construction. Once the permitted work is completed, a final inspection is required.
