Steps

  1. 1

    Confirm County jurisdiction and project scope

    Ask County Building Safety whether the parcel and work fall within County review and identify any required zoning, fire, floodplain, environmental, utility or drainage approvals.

    Review current submission requirements

    Use the County permit page and selected permit-type checklist; do not infer forms, fees, or exemptions from a general summary.

    Apply and follow inspections
