What is Involved in the Typical Demolition Permit Process?

The following procedure is a general guideline in terms of applying for a demolition permit:

You usually have to obtain some type of approved demolition release form from the appropriate state, county or municipal body prior to applying for a demolition permit.

The demolition release form must be completely filled out and submitted to that regulatory body which is directly responsible for demolition in your area. All fees must be paid at this time.

Contact appropriate utilities, including water, electric, and gas, as well as the telephone and cable companies to remove meters and wires.

If necessary, obtain approval from the appropriate municipal body to abandon water and/or sewer.
