Building permits are issued, plans and specifications are reviewed and various inspections are conducted.

We assist the public, contractors, and design professionals in understanding the various code requirements as they apply to their particular projects.

We prepare periodic reports, notices, and related documents. We perform required fire safety inspections of existing buildings and investigate complaints relating to code violations.
