Plans Review
The purpose of a plan review is to ensure the construction project is designed in compliance with the adopted codes and ordinances of the jurisdiction. If there are issues of noncompliance, they can be addressed during the review process which saves time and money. It is more economical to make revisions prior to the start of construction instead of trying to make corrections in the field.
In order to receive a permit for your construction project, you must make application for a project permit. Many projects will require the submittal of construction documents, and other required data, as required by the assigned review groups. Construction documents shall be of such clarity to indicate the location, nature and extent of the work proposed and show in detail that it will conform to the provisions of the applicable adopted construction codes and relevant laws ordinances rules and regulations.
