One of the most important aspects of construction of a structure involves the review of plans or “blue prints". During each plan review, a Plans Examiner looks at every aspect of construction and design to ensure compliance with the adopted codes. Plans must pass plan review before a Building Permit is issued. A permit is required for any commercial, residential, sign, fence, or other miscellaneous structures, including but not limited to, anything erected, constructed, enlarged, altered, repaired, moved, improved, removed, converted, or demolished. Below are a few guidelines and forms to help answer some general concerns. Please contact a Plans Examiner or Permit Technician at 972-292-5301 with any additional questions.
