Winter Closure

Town Hall will be closed beginning 12/23/2019 and will reopen on 1/2/2020. During this time, the Building Official allows architects to inspect architectural building features and engineers to inspect engineered building features. This option expires on 1/2/2020 and is allowed for all construction, excluding foundations which need to be verified by the Building Division for property line set back requirements. A daily report is to be compiled for each inspection by the design professional with their name, signature, a complete description of the work, and location of work accepted. Please submit all reports by the design professional no later than 1/6/2020. Be advised that additional inspections may be required as deemed necessary by the Building Official. 

Winterization Advisory

All sites are required to be winterized including erosion and sediment control measures that are specified on project drawings. If your plans do not contain erosion and sediment control measures, please see the Marin County minimum requirements at the link below.
