Why order matters
Most rejected permit applications aren't wrong — they're early. A building permit reviewer wants to see a site plan with setbacks and drainage already resolved, not decide them for you. Zoning and environmental sign-off usually has to come before the building department will even open your file.
The typical sequence
- Site plan + setback survey submitted to zoning/community development
- Environmental sign-off if the parcel touches a flood zone, river corridor, or stream buffer
- Building permit application (structural, barrier code)
- Electrical permit (NEC 680 bonding, GFCI) — sometimes separate from the building permit, sometimes combined
- Final inspection, including the pool barrier, before the pool can be filled and used
