Inspections
The Inspection Process
Inspections are an important part of the permit process. Inspections are conducted by licensed building inspectors who check each phase of construction and make certain that the work conforms to the building codes, the permit, and the approved plans. It is the responsibility of the permit holder or their agent to notify the Building Department when a required inspection is needed. To schedule an inspection, call 860-584-6215. An approved building plan must be available on site (minimum 24 hour notice). Any inspection deemed necessary to determine compliance with the building codes & other regulations are enforced by the Building Department. The occupancy or use of any structure or addition without a certificate of use & occupancy is a violation of the building code and is punishable by a fine up to $500 per day. Any questions, contact the appropriate inspector.
