Building Code Permit

A building code permit, or building permit is an essential component preceding the approval, construction, and maintenance of a license to build that complies with all federal, state and local/municipal statutes and ordinances. A building code permit is fundamentally, a measure by which the processing, evaluation and potential licensure for construction is standardized, given established procedures and protocol. A building code permit may take the form of merely one comprehensive building code permit or potentially multiple forms, which must be secured prior to acquiring the rights to build on a particular piece of land. If one is utilizing the services of a contractor, that individual is typically responsible for acquiring the rights to a building code permit. Most often, it is appropriate to simply call one's local municipal or city services in order to discern the process by which one would secure a building code permit, if a building code permit is required.

Standard procedures preceding the acquisition or denial of a building code permit usually require a review and evaluation about the specifications of the potential property, existing or future environmental variables and regulations, established zoning infrastructure. This process is accompanied by and is governed by a host of other architectural, economic and civic guidelines, as well. A "site plan", a "zoning site review" or an "inspections plan review" is sometimes a municipal requirement that precedes the licensure of a building code permit. If one has hired a contractor, the contractor will typically coordinate with municipal services to assess the site for its potential, prior to issuing a building code permit.

If one has not hired a contractor, one will have to evaluate and follow all of the municipal axioms in order to be considered for licensure of a building code permit. If one is a homeowner, and is simply considering work on their own private property, a building code permit may still be needed, depending upon one's local municipal and/or city ordinances. Therefore, it is imperative to first collect information and communicate with one's available community institutions, in order to find out if one needs a building code permit, and/or a 'review' prior to assessing the request for a building code permit. An inspector will be assigned to 'review' the request for a building code permit on behalf of the municipality or city, committing oneself to the evaluation of the land, existing zoning and ordinances governing construction, as well as potential variables that may prevail in the area but not on paper. Thus, an inspector is a pivotal personality in properly evaluating and enabling the licensure of a building code permit for the prospects of envisioned renovations and/or the construction of a novel structure.

Prior to issuing a homeowner or a contractor a building code permit, one must also pay applicable fees that are associated with local governance regarding new construction. 'Building permit fees' are assigned by the municipality or city and apply to both contractors who have sought a building code permit as well as a homeowner. However, the aforementioned ordinance varies from region to region, thus one should check with their local public services center or office.
