Submittal ready
Permit Plot Plan Sheets
An unstamped, to-scale plot plan sheet drawn against the checklist the receiving building department publishes.
One submittal-ready plot plan sheet as PDF at the size the department requires, with every checklist item keyed to where it appears on the sheet.
Best fit
The buyer and the boundary.
A remodeler, general contractor, pool or deck builder, or permit expediter filing with the same departments every week. Written for the firm that permits continuously, not for a homeowner pulling one permit.

- The sheet size and drawing scale the department requires
I deliver

Definition of done
Check it in under five minutes.
- Every item on the named jurisdiction published plot plan checklist appears on the sheet and in the crosswalk
- Dimensions on the sheet reconcile to the survey or parcel data you supplied
- The sheet prints to the stated scale at the sheet size the department requires
- Lot coverage and impervious figures recompute from the dimensions shown
- Anything the checklist requires that your inputs do not cover is listed as a gap rather than assumed
Named exclusions
Finite by design.
Anything outside this list and the written scope becomes a new fixed-price change, not invisible extra work.
- Any professional engineer or licensed architect seal, since the sheet is unstamped
- Boundary and topographic survey work, and any field measurement
- Structural, grading, drainage, and utility design
- Submitting the permit or speaking to the building department for you
- Zoning interpretation and variance applications
