Building permit application submitted

July 31st, 2013

Today is the last day of July. I have finally gathered all the files with proper signature on them. So here we go again to the city’s building department to submit the application for building permit. This time everything went smoothly. The computers are working, and we didn’t miss any critical files. We still missed an Energy Efficiency Design Summary, but we can submit that later. So after about an hour and half, the building permit application is submitted. The cost of the building permit application is just shy of $3000.

Building permit application

July 21st, 2013

Today the plan was to try to submit our application for building permit. There are still some minor adjustments, but my architect said that we’ll just get it done after we get the building permit application in. Unfortunately, the wind is not blowing in the right direction today. First of all, the city’s building department’s computer system is down. And then when they went through the files, they found that some of our files did not have engineer’s signature on them. So we were not able to get the application submitted. Now I have to chase after a few people to make sure I get the signature on those files. Hopefully I get all that sorted out next week and we can get the application in before the end of July.
