Building Permits

About Building Permitting

A building permit is an official approval issued by the local government agency that allows you or your contractor to proceed with a construction or remodeling project on your property. It is intended to ensure that the project plans to comply with local standards for land use, zoning, and construction. These standards are intended to ensure the safety of current and future owners and occupants and to provide enforcement of zoning and land-use policies.

Specific issues that the building permit process may address include structural integrity of the framing work, zoning, sanitation, water, and sewer lines, fire protection, and electrical service. 

Building Permit Applications 

The owner or designated agent of the owner shall file an application with the Town of Copper Canyon only on forms provided by the city. 

To obtain a permit first, submit an application and supporting documentation that is of sufficient clarity to indicate the location, nature, and extent of the work proposed and show in detail that it will conform to the provisions of the adopted codes and ordinances.

The permit application will be approved and a permit issued when all provisions of the adopted codes and ordinances are met.

The application shall be accompanied by all required documents.

The Town will need a copy of the plans, digitally, and the Permit Application.

Please see the Building Permit Handbook for all the guidelines.

You may submit your plans and permit application by dropping it off at Town Hall, mail, or email.
