Building Inspections

Yes. City Offices are closed every other Friday. If you call in for an inspection on a Friday that City Offices are closed, or on an observed holiday, your inspection will be scheduled for the following business day. Please see Calendar details at the link below.

We currently accept inspection requests up until 6:30 a.m. for an inspection that day. In rare instances when there are a high number of requests, some inspections may need to be scheduled for the following day. 

An inspector will contact you between 7:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. on the day of the inspection.

Special inspections required include air balance and structural steel. Concrete inspections depend on PSI. Consult with the CBC Chapter 17 for all special inspections your project may require.

A 3rd party would perform the special inspection. Please research the local area for an appropriate 3rd party resource.

The "Final Building Inspection Passed" status on an "Inspection Summary Report" serves as the Certificate of Occupancy for all residential projects, and most commercial projects. To get an "Inspection Summary Report," contact our Front Counter.

Some commercial projects require a separate Certificate of Occupancy Form, completed by the assigned building inspector to your project. Contact your inspector for your Certificate of Occupancy for commercial projects.

A "Summary Inspection Report" document is uploaded by your  assigned Building Inspector once your project has received a Passed Final Building Inspection. To view documents in your permit through Accela, click here.
