Information about Residential Construction Processes

 

The Commercial Development Process

Commercial development includes 3 phases:

The Planning Phase involves assuring the proper zoning and potentially a Site Plan Review.

The Permitting Phase includes applying for all necessary building and trade permits then staff review and permit issuance.

The Construction Phase includes proper inspections and ultimately culminates in a Certificate of Occupancy.
