Residential Expedited Permit Process Overview

Expedited Permit & Inspection Certificate (EPIC)
Small Commercial & Professional Service Applications

The Expedited Permit and Inspection Certificate, or EPIC, is designed to support small commercial and professional services that move into existing space and to provide permit review and approval within one week. Many businesses move into space that needs only minor construction or renovation. EPIC will save these projects time and money. EPIC offers a five-step process: submission, application, review, permit and inspection.
