The Building Department consists of three divisions: plan review, permitting and inspections. This safeguards the health, safety, and general welfare of residential and commercial construction projects.
Any type of proposed construction to arise requires a building permit. This includes work for plumbing, air conditioning, electrical, remodeling, fencing, driveways, etc..
A building permit application must be submitted to the City Hall along with two complete sets of plans. The plan review process may take 24-48 hours for residential construction and up to 72 hours for commercial construction. Plans must comply with all 2009 International Building Codes and the City of Palmhurst's Ordinances.
