1 minutes read

For the next 60 days, starting from September 12, 2024, the city will waive permitting fees related to storm damage. However, homeowners, business owners, and contractors are still required to obtain the necessary permits to ensure the work is performed correctly and safely.

Some Key Points to Remember:
– **Permitting Fees Waived**: For 60 days, fees for storm damage-related permits are waived.

– **Proper Permits Still Required**: Owners and contractors must still secure the proper work permits.

– **Licensed Contractors**: All work must be done by a properly licensed tradesperson using compliant materials.

– **Contracts and Insurance**: Contractors are required to provide a written contract and proof of insurance before starting any work.

– **Licensing Requirements**: Contractors must be licensed by the appropriate State Boards. Plumbers and natural gas fitters need licenses from two different State Boards.

– **Local Licensing and Tax Documentation**: Contractors may also need to secure local licenses and provide the necessary tax documentation.
