Electronic Plan Review Coming Soon!
We are currently in the final phase of selecting an electronic plan review (EPR) system for possible implementation late in 2011. 
EPR systems allow electronic plan submittals, concurrent plan reviews, and electronic communications between designers and the Building Safety Division. 
EPR systems have been known to greatly reduce travel and printing expenses, improve communications, and compress the time between plan submittal and permit issuance.  This makes EPR systems very GREEN indeed!    

Building Safety received EECBG Grant for $200,000 to aid implementation of 2006 International Energy Conservation Code
