Plan review, permit and inspection update

  • Plan review:  Electronic plans and paper plans submitted prior to March 27, 2020, will continue to be reviewed. Paper plans submitted after March 27, 2020, will not be processed until the Stay at Home order is lifted. For the quickest review, submit plans online.

  • Inspections and permits:  Online permits will continue to be issued. No paper permit applications will be processed until the Stay at Home order is lifted.

    Inspections to critical sectors exempt from the Stay at Home order will continue. These include residential and non-residential building construction.

Submit plans, apply for permit

  • Once validated by staff, the project contact listed on a plan review application will receive an email inviting them to upload electronic construction documents to ePlans for review by the department.
