Application Submittal

How do I apply for a permit and what do I need to bring when applying for a permit?

Permit processing can be a simple process or quite complex depending on several factors. There are numerous types of permits (see the column to the left) depending on the scope of work for your project. 

 

A typical application will require:

• Application for Construction
• Site plan
• 2 complete sets of plans including:

1. Floor plan layout with all room uses labeled
2. Foundation detail
3. Wall Framing / Cross section detail
4. Floor framing (If using an engineered floor system, provide the engineering.)
5. Roof framing detail (If using a manufactured truss system, provide truss layout and individual truss sheet detail which must be stamped by engineer licensed in Washington State)  
6. Elevations

• Engineering or calculations (stamped by engineer currently licensed in the Washington State)

• Energy Documents - WSEC (Washington State Energy Code) for residential or NREC Non Residential Energy Code for commercial provisions. (Chapter 51-11C WAC)
