Building Permit Definitions
The City of Mesa uses a number of permit type
designations. Each permit designator contains the same
basic elements: permit type, year permit was issued, and
permit number.
For example, permit number BLD2001-00002 is a
Building Permit which was issued in 2001 and was the
second Building Permit issued for the year. The first
three letters will change depending on the type of
permit you're looking for.
The first three letters "BLD" tell
you what type of permit you're dealing with. In this
case, a Building permit.
The next four digits "2001"
represent the year the permit application was received.
The remainder "-00002" is the actual
number for that specific permit.
There are several Permit types. The following list
identifies the types of permits and the department
responsible for administering each permit type. In many
cases a number of departments may be involved with the
review of a permit. If you have a question or concern
regarding a specific permit, please contact the
department that you believe is most appropriate to
answer your questions. If you're not certain which
department to contact, then contact the department
responsible for administering that permit type.
