Policy ADMIN 151B - Permit Application Guidelines

On April 01, 2010, the Building Department will begin using Policy ADMIN 151B, a clear set of standards for classifying commercial projects for review of the permit application in one of three ways: on the Main Log (M-Log) for large projects, on the Small Project Log (X-Log) for smaller projects or as a Same Day Review for very simple projects. This Policy defines how commercial projects will be classified for review, includes Building Department review timeline commitments, and establishes a procedure for booking appointments for the staff-assisted submission of large projects (M-Log) for review.
