Assessment
Request an assessment.
Not sure yet what you need? Describe the lot or the building, and an engineer will assess what's feasible and where to start.
What can be built, whether the structure will hold, or what to do about a project with review comments.
Assessment form
Tell us what you'd like assessed.
With this information, an engineer reviews your case and tells you which path makes sense before you commit to a full project.
What to include in your request
- What you have today: a lot, an occupied building, stalled construction or a project on paper.
- Current stage: just an idea, schematic design, permit set ready or under construction.
- Main need: find out what to build, design, permit, build or oversee.
- History: cracks, past additions or comments from the city.
