Forms & Checklists

These checklists and forms are provided to assist customers in submitting complete permit applications and plans, which simplifies and expedites the permit approval process.  While the checklists are thorough, they are not exhaustive and do not apply to every permitted project type.  Please contact the Building Inspection Division with questions regarding your specific project.
