The Five Steps: City Planning and Building Code Review

It is the third of the five steps on the way to a grand opening.  This step really needs your attention.

City planning and code review are critical. You can't proceed between steps without proper permitting.

The steps you need to take to ensure compliance during this phase include:

• Submission of drawings and documentation to the city (or municipality) for review and comment.
• Finalization of the construction schedule.
• Addressing city review comments.
• Receipt of notice of construction permit approval.
• Assurance of building and systems code compliance.
• Finalization of construction budget.
• Approval and sign off of final construction contract with owner.

Once this sequence of events has taken place, you can move on to the next step: general construction.
