Before a Public Works Construction (Utilities) Permit can be issued, you will need to provide:
- Contact details for the applicant, contractor and/or developer, entered on the contact information spreadsheet
- The project address and its legal description
- The materials testing lab and the type of work involved, such as a meter, a meter vault, or water or wastewater lines
- The cost of the public improvements
- A trench safety plan prepared for this specific site
- A completed Maintenance Bond form
- A completed Construction Document Package
Step 2: Apply Online
Applications for this permit are submitted through the city's online permitting portal. If this is your first time using the portal, you will need a working email address to register. Setting up an account takes roughly five minutes.
Step 3: What Happens Next
Once your online application is complete, expect processing to take about three to five business days. If the application needs corrections or more information from you, approval may take longer.
