What Can I Do to Ensure My Building Permit Application is Processed as Timely as Possible?
Providing a complete submittal is the best way to be sure that your application will be processed in a timely manner. Please make sure all the items on the checklist are on the plans. This ensures that the Building Department has all the information necessary to complete the plan review in a timely manner, usually within 10 business days!
A common item that is often not provided on the application is the parcel number / tax ID number. If you do not know your parcel number / tax ID number, you can look it up on the Benton County Assessor's property search website.
