Building Permits

Permitting is the second step in the building approval process and is the tool that the City uses to ensure planned construction meets all applicable codes and regulations. Permits are required to erect, alter or enlarge any structure, including swimming pools and fences, and install, alter, repair or replace any electrical wiring, plumbing or mechanical equipment. Plans must be drawn to scale, dimension and be of sufficient clarity to be easily read. Plans must show the property lines, location of the buildings in relation to the property lines, all easements, and setback lines.
