Building Inspection Authorization (9/2006)
This form is required to obtain building inspections from your selected Plan Review Agent. Typically this form can not be completed until the project has bid and a construction schedule is available. At that time C-West can provide you a proposal for building inspections that is then incorporated into the Building Inspection Authorization.

Building Inspection Record (9/2006)
This document is the yellow "Building Permit" card that needs to be completed by the Agency based upon the Plan Review Agent’s "Building Inspection Recommendations" that are provided with the project Compliance Notice. This card should be posted at the construction site and signed off by the Inspectors after each inspection.
