Douglas County Building Permit is the official division responsible for ensuring that new construction projects in Omaha, NE, adhere to nationally recognized building code standards. They require owners or contractors to apply for permits, pay associated fees, and undergo inspections at crucial stages of construction to ensure the safety and well-being of residents. The division recently introduced a new fee structure, which includes separate permits and fees for each trade involved in new home construction, aligning with the City of Omaha's regulations. The Permits and Inspections Division emphasizes the importance of meeting certain criteria before issuing permits for major construction projects, such as providing evidence of access to public water and sewer or obtaining approval from the Douglas County Department of Health for private septic and well systems. Additionally, they oversee the construction of pools and require all necessary permit applications to be completed before work can commence. Their commitment to upholding building code standards contributes to the overall safety and quality of construction in Douglas County.Generated from the website
