² Rechecks represent the average number of days to review a resubmittal. The recheck review begins after all requested documents listed on the Required Submittal report have been uploaded.

This is the queue time after the project has been reviewed and the time it takes for staff to verify that all requirements have been met.

To help speed up the new project application intake, review, and permit issuance, we ask customers to use City resources to ensure applications and project packages contain complete information. An example is making sure applications meet the current application requirements outlined in the Submittal Manual before uploading. The online system helps to pre-screen that the minimum required files are uploaded. However, DSD staff are also required to review the documents for completeness.

Here are the top ways you can help reduce intake times:

1. Ensure your Building Construction Plans are landscape-oriented, and sheet numbers are at the bottom right.
2. Check and download the most current forms.
3. Review Information Bulletins, Technical Bulletins and the Project Submittal Manual.
4. If your building is more than 45 years old, submit the Assessor Building Record and photographic survey.
5. View training videos or attend a webinar on how to apply online.
6. After you submit and receive a PRJ number, book a Virtual Appointment for a new project setup.

Similarly, the permit issuance step requires staff to check your project for completeness. Often, staff finds that required documents or information are missing. To help speed up this phase, please provide accurate and complete information, such as your inspection contact. Review the other requirements to avoid unnecessary delays. You can also book a Virtual Appointment to have staff help you through this phase.

Please use these tips so we can help you obtain your permit and get you going on your project!
