Welcome to On-Line Permitting Training
We
hope this information will make your transition easier from either using
the old system to the new system or, if you're a totally new user, from
even leaving your home.
We can handle any kind of permit online
with the exception of
single/multi-family homes and commercial applications.
The new system requires the following:
- A connection to the Internet
- Minimum Requirements for Internet Browser:
Internet Explorer 5.0 and newer OR Netscape 7.0 and newer. No
other browsers will be supported at this time.
- An email account (preferably
one with a large capacity)
- A login account established
with the Building Division. All you are required to do is appear in
person at the Building Division, show identification, and have your
fax number, your email addresses, and a password. If you are already
viewing or scheduling your inspections online, you may continue to use
the same login and password, but you must update your fax number.
- A fax machine capable
of "fine" resolution
- An escrow account with
the Finance Department to pay for the permits, or a credit card on file
that permits fees can be charged to. If you elect to use a credit card,
there is a fee of 3.2% of the amount of the permit, or $2.50, which
ever is greater. For more information on setting up an escrow account,
click here.
- You can do Notice of Commencements
(NOC) electronically now too. To do so, you must set up a separate escrow
account with the Clerk of the Courts to pay for them. For instructions
on setting up an NOC
escrow account click here.
- Your licenses and insurance
must be up to date.
- If you are a high volume
user, we would strongly suggest you invest in a high speed Internet
connection (cable or DSL) from your local cable or phone company. You
will still be way ahead even with this additional expense.
