Please review the permit application instructions from the list below for the specific type of building permit which is being applied for before you submit your online application.
For New Commercial, and New Single Family permits, this application process has recently changed. All reviews are now completed as a PACKET REVIEW which means when an application is accepted into plan review, all reviewing departments will review and either approve the application or send it back to the applicant for corrections. During this stage of review, comments made for correction can be viewed, but documents are not allowed to be updated on the portal. Please log on to the portal for updated review information 24-7. Select the tab that shows RED for items that require correction. When all reviewers are able to review, the applicant will receive an email notice that the application is available for updating with all corrections requested attached to the notice. Please make updates and send the application back to the City for further review. Once all tabs are green, the application will be finalized into PEND status where fees will be accessible for payment.
