What should I do after the plan receives final approval?
Before beginning construction, contact the Building Safety and Permits Division at 757-253-6626 to get information about applying for building permits. It is possible to have subdivision plans and building drawings reviewed concurrently, but a building permit will not be issued until final subdivision approval has been obtained. If you will be connecting to public water and sewer, contact the JCSA at 757-253-6800 to apply for service. There is an availability fee based on the size of the water meter required for the project.
