PERMITTING IS AN ESSENTIAL YET COMPLEX PROCESS THAT CAN TAKE YEARS AND
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO COMPLETE. In order to better serve your
client, it is important to understand the process and the most
efficient way to navigate it.Architects can communicate with City
officials to review plans in order to avoid large design changes post
permit submittal. The presentation reviews the permitting process and
the methods we have found most helpful for speedy delivery of permits.
We will discuss the importance of understanding the different
jurisdictional requirements, as various cities within the Bay Area
have different requirements. Neglecting to distinguish these
requirements ahead of time can lead to delays in the review process
down the road.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After this presentation, you will be able to:
* Understand why separating tenant improvements into two different
scopes for permitting is valuable;
* Distinguish when third party plan check is appropriate for a
project and when it is not;
* Understand why Water and Fire Services for ground-up construction
should be submitted concurrently;
* See the value in personally routing plans to the health department
rather than waiting for the city to do it.
