LOCAL PERMIT PLANNING

Planning a Site Plan in New York City, New York

For projects in New York City, the reviewing authority may be the city, New York County, or another local agency depending on the property and project. That is why we recommend sending any permit checklist, correction notice, survey, or existing drawing you already have.

We use those documents to understand what needs to be shown on the plan before drafting begins. The final drawing can include the existing property layout, proposed work, dimensions, setbacks, access, and other agreed permit details.

OFFICIAL PERMIT RESOURCES

New York City DOB Permit Resources

The NYC Department of Buildings requires permit applications for most construction work. Many projects require plans prepared and filed by a New York State licensed Professional Engineer or Registered Architect, and applications are handled through DOB NOW or other DOB filing systems depending on the work.

For NYC projects, confirm whether your filing requires a licensed New York design professional. City Permit Plans is an independent drafting provider and is not affiliated with NYC DOB.

SURVEYS, SETBACKS & ENGINEERING

What May Affect Your New York City Site Plan

Do You Need a Survey?

A survey can provide reliable boundary, easement, and existing-condition information. Not every project starts with one, so send what you have and we can review whether the available information is enough for the requested scope.

Setbacks & Zoning

Required setbacks and zoning rules can differ by jurisdiction and property. If you have zoning notes, a permit checklist, or reviewer comments, include them with your request.

PE-Stamped Plans

Some projects or jurisdictions may require engineering. PE-stamped plans are available for supported scopes where required, and we confirm that need before work begins.
