Homeowners and Do-It-Yourselfers
The Development Services Department staff wants your project to come together as easily as possible, while helping to assure that it is safe and cost effective. Perhaps you are thinking about building a deck or a small storage shed. Maybe you want to enlarge with a new addition or remodel the kitchen. Whatever the project, do not hesitate to either call or stop by early in your planning stage to discuss options and ideas.

UP's six easy steps to fast permit turnaround

  1. Make sure the building permit application is complete and accurate.
  2. Ensure that all plumbing, mechanical, energy and window details are completed on the forms provided.
  3. Submitted plan sets should be complete, legible, and up to current code.
  4. Include any required design work (engineer/ architect) at the time of permit submission.
  5. Your scaled site plan should show all property dimensions, utility and access easements, improvements (structures), and any street frontages (contact the Development Services Department for setback and zoning requirements).
  6. Call, visit, or email a member of the Development Services Department staff if you have any questions.
