I NEED A PERMIT…
How Long Will It take?

Below is a list of "average" time-frames applicants can expect for an application to be approved for permitting.
Assuming all applications are completed in full with all required drawings/seals needed with applicable insurance and bonding forms complete and on file. Applicants should be aware that project changes, weather and other circumstances may effect the time turn around for any and all permit applications.

Most application forms are not yet available on the INTERNET. Applicants may contact the individual department for a faxed copy of a blank form. Applicants could then fax a completed form to the Department for consultation on projected "fees". Many permits are based on the value of the work to be performed also many permits require "original" attachments before a permit can be issued.
