Who Can Pull a Permit
All licensed trade contractors and general contractors may pull permits. All work must be done by a licensed trade contractor or general contractor who is registered with the city, otherwise, homeowners may pull a homestead permit if planning to do the work themselves.

A permit is required to build, alter, enlarge, or repair any residential or commercial structure within the city limits. Commercial building permit applications are also reviewed by the Fire Marshal and in some cases the Health Department.

Permit Fees
Commercial and residential building permit fees vary based on the valuation of the job. Please call for the most current rates.
Inspections
Once a permit has been issued, inspections are made based on the type of the project and the scope of work done. It is the responsibility of the permit holder to schedule the necessary inspections.
Please note that these inspections can only be scheduled using our online portal.
