Planning & Development review Process Experience
Sun Engineering has submitted many sets of plans to the City of Phoenix
Planning & Development Department for review. We typically work with architects and consultants that utilize the “Self Certification” process. This process involves Sun Engineering submitting our construction drawings (CDs) to the “Self Certified” firm. The “Self Certifying” firm then submits all (architect, electrical, mechanical, civil, etc.) CDs to the city and pay the review fees. It takes roughly six (6) days for the review to be completed and then the owner pays the permit fees. This whole process is done electronically. In the event that we do not work with a “Self Certifying” firm, we would still bypass the pre-application meeting and go straight to the counter and submit the plans for review. Once the plans are submitted, we pay for the review fees and wait (roughly 6 weeks) for comments to come back from the city. If there are no redlines or comments back from the city, then we move forward and pay for the permit fees.
