Construction Site Development

If you are applying for a construction (building) permit or planning for future construction (land use permit) that involves ground disturbance or tree or vegetation removal, advance inspection of your site by DWM’s Site Development team may be required.
The Site Development team reviews and inspects site development applications for construction projects using drainage reviewers, geotechnical engineers, site development engineers, environmental specialists and site development inspectors.

This team evaluates construction projects for compliance with building, environmental and drainage codes, and assists both land use and code enforcement staff with site issues, and provides site review for short plats, Master Use Permits, complaints and violations.
To contact Site Development about a potential project or complaint related to violations at an ongoing construction site, call 404-330-6990.
