PERMIT CENTER INFORMATION
The Town of Hunts Point issues a wide range of permits for work performed within
the Town’s corporate limits. Those permits include, but are not limited to,
building permits for improvements or new construction on private property,
mechanical permits for new mechanical equipment (water heaters, furnaces,
gas ranges, air conditioners, etc.), plumbing permits for new plumbing
fixtures, and demolition permits for the
demolition of structures. Utility companies and individuals performing work on
the Town rights of way must first obtain a street opening permit.
Most construction projects require a permit of some type, so it is important
that owners contact the Town's Building Department before
beginning any construction work, as any owner who starts a project without the
needed permits will be charged a penalty in addition to the normal permit fees.
The Town does not issue electrical permits. Electrical permits are issued by the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries, Bellevue Service Location, 425.990.1400.
Application packets for the most common permits we issue are listed below. In order to be considered complete, an application must include all of the needed forms properly filled out and payment for all application fees. Permit applications are accepted at Town Hall on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 8:00 AM and Noon and from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Local regulations affecting building and land use can be found in the Hunts Point Municipal Code. Other rules and regulations that may pertain to specialized projects can be obtained by contacting the Building Department and general zoning information is available on the Town's Zoning Map. Fees for building permits and other related activities are outlined in the Town's Fee Schedule.
Please be advised: The Town recently enacted a NEW TREE CODE. Permits applicants MUST review this new legislation carefully as the rules governing tree protection during construction and tree removal have changed.
The Town contracts with Steve Wilcox, dba Municipal Permit Services, for building-official, inspection, and code-enforcement services. This person reviews permit applications for completeness and compliance with applicable rules and regulations, performs periodic inspections during construction, completes the final inspection needed for a Certificate of Occupancy, and enforces the Town's Building and Zoning Codes when a violation is observed and on a complaint basis. For more information about the Town Building Department, please contact Town Hall at 425.455.1834.
To arrange for an inspection of your building project, please call Steve Wilcox at 206.235.9137 at least 24 hours in advance, and leave your message with the following information: Your name and contact phone number, the address of the site to be inspected, and the type of inspection needed.
The Town contracts with the Bellevue Fire Department to review certain building project plans and determine whether fire sprinklers are needed and to inspect the installation of fire-sprinkler systems when completed. To arrange for an inspection of your fire-sprinkler system, please call the Bellevue Fire Department at 425.452.6875.
The Town contracts with Mona Green for planning services. Ms. Green reviews permit applications for compliance with the Town's zoning code, prepares staff reports analyzing requests for variance, reviews Shoreline Development applications, and assists the Town Council and Planning Commission with general planning issues.
