Digital Permitting + Online Plan Check: The 2026 Workflow That Saves Weeks
Cities are modernizing permit submission and plan check. A clean, organized digital package can reduce resubmittals and keep your ADU timeline predictable.
Why This Matters for ADU Projects
Most homeowners want fewer revisions, faster approvals, and a smoother build. That’s why we align ADU Design, ADU permitting, and ADU construction from the start.
1. Build a Permit Package Like a Pro
A strong submission is consistent: sheet naming, revision notes, and matching details across architectural and engineering pages.
2. Respond to Comments Fast (Without Chaos)
Track comments in one place, assign owners, and resubmit as a coordinated set—random changes create new conflicts and more review cycles.
Quick Checklist
Use consistent sheet naming + revision tracking
Coordinate architectural + structural updates together
Submit only complete resubmittals (avoid partial fixes)
Keep a single point of contact for the city
