Along with the above information all applicable documentation shown on the Permit Procedures List will need to be provided.

Once all documentation is received in our office, the building inspector will review the application and determine the fee. The building permit will then be issued upon payment.

1. Footings – before pour.
2. Drain Tile – before backfill.
3. Basement and Garage Floors – before pour.
