Inspections Checklist
During Inspections
In order to avoid unnecessary delays, inspection rejections and payment of re-inspection fees, please ensure that:
- All work to be inspected is completed and ready for inspection.
- The approved construction drawings and inspection card are available on site for all inspections.
- The inspector is able to obtain reasonable access to the building for inspection. If the building is occupied, please ensure someone is on the premises at the time of the inspection.
- Construction work does not proceed beyond the stages indicated for each inspection without prior written approval from the building inspector.
- Occupancy of the building does not occur prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy* or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy.**
*A Certificate of Occupancy is issued if the building or structure is substantially complete and fit for occupancy.
**A Conditional Certificate of Occupancy is sometimes issued for partial or emergency occupancy approval.
