How to Apply for a Permit in Flagstaff

Flagstaff takes building permit applications through the Citizen Access Portal. Plumbing, electrical, mechanical or roofing only work uses the Over the Counter Permit Application; structural work needs a residential or commercial building permit application. Residential attachments too large to upload can be emailed to BuildingPermits@flagstaffaz.gov and commercial ones to Commercial.BuildingPermits@flagstaffaz.gov. The estimated plan review fee is due when the application is submitted and is not refundable; the rest of the permit fee is due at issuance.
