Construction and Demolition Permits
A construction permit is required for all new alterations, renovations, and additions to any university building or property. The Construction Permit and Demolition Permit are issued by the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) or designee upon review and acceptance of submitted construction plans and documents. Any changes to an already approved construction plan must be approved by the AHJ or designee prior to their incorporation into the construction project. The AHJ or designee will examine all applications within a reasonable time after filing. If the construction documents do not conform with requirements of all pertinent codes and laws, the permit will be rejected. If the AHJ is satisfied that the proposed work conforms to the applicable requirements, an approved permit will be issued.
Work cannot begin until the Construction Permit or Demolition Permit is approved. Any permit issued will become invalid if the authorized work is not commenced within 30 days after issuance of the permit.
