Who Can Pull a Permit
Licensed contractors may pull permits upon registering with the city. All work must be done by a licensed contractor who is registered with the city, otherwise, homeowners may pull a homestead permit if planning to do the work themselves.
Contractor Registration
All contractors and subcontractors must be registered with the city before pulling a permit. The registration fee is $110 for the first year and $55 for each year following. A copy of a photo ID, proof of insurance, and a copy of any applicable licenses must be submitted with the Contractor Registration Application (PDF).
