Permit and Inspection Documents
Many permits can be accessed through our online application and renewal system.
Permit applications and supporting documents
For single-family homes only (no commercial construction): improvement projects don't require permits if the project doesn't encroach over a drain system, public utility easement or into required setbacks from property lines.
The project must still comply with all applicable construction and zoning codes.
