How to Submit a Building Permit Application
The building permit application, along with all project documents, can be submitted in-person at Town Hall or digitally via email. Incomplete applications will not be accepted, and corrections will be asked of the applicant before intake of any documents or review begins. Learn about specific permits, their requirements, and options for submittal by using the navigation menu on the left.
Project Reviews
Building permit applications that are not considered over-the-counter are subject to review. When developing a project, time is of the essence to the applicant. We are committed to reviewing your project as quickly as possible. Initial reviews may take 3-4 weeks depending on the complexity of the project. Be reminded, the more accurate, thorough, and complete your responses and resubmittal package are, the more likely you are to obtain approval in a timely manner.
In-Office
Project reviews conducted by the Town will be completed by the building inspector, Michael Pinola. Initial reviews can be expected to take 1-2 weeks. Inter-department reviews, when applicable, will be fulfilled by the Engineer and/or Planning department. Depending on the process, projects may take more or less time to review.
Third Party Reviewer
Projects that are unable to be reviewed at Town Hall will be evaluated by Bureau Veritas in Sacramento. Initial reviews can be expected to take approximately 3-4 weeks. Inter-department reviews at Town Hall conducted by the Engineer and/or Planning department may also be required. Depending on the process, projects may take more or less time to review.
Review Results
Results of each review will be sent via email to the applicant on the building permit application. To check the status of a review or current project, please email Jordan Tibbits at jtibbits@loomis.ca.gov.
