Shasta County Inspection Request Change

Update from the Department of Resource Management Building Division

The Department of Resource Management Building Division is in the process of adjusting the time for requesting a building permit inspection. Starting Monday January 14th, 2019, building inspection requests will need to be scheduled before 3:00 PM the day before the inspection is requested. An inspection request for Monday must be requested by 3:00 pm Friday. An inspection request made on a Saturday or Sunday will be available for inspection the following Tuesday.

Time to Request Inspection

As a result of the recent fires and increase in permit activity the department is identifying ways to streamline inspection services. A couple of methods which have been identified to provide better service is to adjust staff levels and provide cell phones for the Inspectors.

All Inspectors now have cell phones and with inspection requests made by 3:00 pm the day before, we have a better opportunity to adjust staff levels as necessary through the use of part-time, extra help Inspectors. A few immediate benefits for the streamlined process is the ability to communicate with the area Inspectors, provide earlier inspection times and better accuracy for estimating a time of arrival.

We appreciate your support as we improve our process and implement streamlining methods to “Build Shasta.”
