Home Remodel Information

Here are a few things you should know if you are thinking about remodeling your home. The first step is to contact the Planning Division. Then, submit 5 sets of plans with a contractor's cost of the job.

Plans should include the following information:
  • What you are doing
  • Where it is occurring
  • How it will be built
A typical set of plans should include:
  • A site/plot map
  • A foundation plan
  • roof & floor framing plans
  • construction sections
  • appropriate floor plans
  • Minimum Paper Size is 11" X 17".
  • If you are adding floor area, 2 sets of energy calculations are required.
  • If your work costs $1,000.00 or more, battery operated smoke detectors are needed in halls and bedrooms.
  • Plans should be clear and legible.
  • You can draw the plans yourself or hire a contractor, building designer or architect.

    If you have any questions call 831.646.3890 or see the Contact Us page.
