Upon receipt of all needed approvals, you should have the green light to apply for your building permit.
The Village of Pinecrest asks for separate applications for grading, demolition, mechanical, electrical and plumbing work, as well as one for a general building permit. Your contractor should know which permits to pull for your project. That said, you may discuss your project’s permit requirements at any time with the Village’s Building and Planning Department as a personal oversight measure. Pinecrest staff are available to help property owners navigate through the process, so do not hesitate to reach out to the Village for guidance.
It’s always a good idea to be aware of the permit application’s requirements for compliance with Village codes.
This can include getting a site plan approved through review, corrections, and revisions, obtaining a permit to begin construction, scheduling inspections throughout the process, and getting final approval for the completed work. A meeting with a Village representative to explain the entire process prior to commencement is highly recommended, as it will provide you with a clear understanding of the code requirements and expectations for moving your project forward.
