Inspections

Remote Inspections For Residential PropertiesRemote inspections are an alternative to on-site inspections, and allows City staff to perform building inspections without more efficiently in certain scenarios. This eliminates the need for repeat visits by inspectors, shortening the timeline for homeowners, contractors, and City staff.

  • Remote inspections are only permitted at residential properties.
  • All remote inspections will be conducted with the contractor or technician performing the installation.
  • If an issue is found during the inspection, the contractor or technician may make the necessary corrections immediately.
Note:  Tree permits for any impacted trees will not be issued until review of the site plan is complete.
