Permit Is Issued
Step 10: Permit Is Issued
Your application and/or plans go to the Customer Service Section when the Plan Examiners approve them.
The application is then checked to ensure that all outside agencies have submitted their approvals so that your permit can be issued.
The fees are checked for accuracy, and you'll be notified of any balance due.
Once you pay the balance, your permit is issued -- and you can begin work!
The permit must be posted on-site and available to the Inspector. If your permit has accompanying approved plans, they must be available as well.
How Long Is The Permit Valid?
For a wrecking permit to remain valid, demolition must begin within 120 days.
All other permits expire by limitation if work has not begun within 12 months from the date of permit issuance or when the work has been discontinued for six months.
However, if the owner requests a renewal prior to the expiration of the permit, the permit can be extended for an additional 12-month period for a fee.
