Program Description:
The APR Program streamlines building plan reviews and permitting processes, for an additional fee.
This service accelerates and usually approves complex permit applications and building plans within
one or two in-person review sessions. In some cases, if all code requirements are met or plan
corrections immediately made, permit applications may be approved in one day. While the speed of
plan review is a major benefit the concierge service this process provides is inherently attractive to
both owners and design professionals without diminishing DCRA’s focus on compliance and
building safety.
