Permits & Forms

Overview

All permit applications and supporting documentation need to be submitted via email to the Permit Technician. Per MLMC 16.40.010, submissions shall be made in the manner requested by the Fire Code Official. Electronic documents are the way the department receives submittals. If the document size is too large for email, please be sure to use a file hosting service to transfer documents. See the fee schedule (PDF). A review fee and technology fee (if applicable) are due once the permit package is accepted. There will be a permit fee required before the permit is released. We accept cash, checks, or credit card payments either in person or over the phone. All documents must be legible and complete, or the submittal will be rejected and returned if illegible or incomplete.
